An amazing race by Katelyn. I was running on the treadmill watching the Millrose games. She is running so relaxed it's insane. She honestly never looks likes she's straining. Breaking the collegiate by 6 seconds, wow, and her own PR by 20 seconds, double wow. I remember watching her through high school, and many times announcers would say it isn't fair, she doesn't have any competition. The greats thrive with competition equal to or better than they are. Katelyn needs to keep on running in meets like this. The amount of gains she gets from these races is immense, racing against woman with more experience. Monson obviously helped push/guide her. We all knew we were witnessing greatness years ago. She continues to blow my mind, and who knows what her ceiling is. She's a professional in every sense of the word, and it's a privilege to be able to follow her career. I start thinking of great athletes like Sydney McLaughlin, and in the future hoping we'll be saying similar things about Katelyn.
There were two pacers, one for the American record for Monson and top pros then one for the NCAA record for Tuohy, so I did not even think about Tuohy getting a podium spot because she was paced to be in the second pack. That was an insane run!
Yeah Elly and Elise didn't hold on to the pace set for Alicia. Almost like they were not ready for that yet but felt obligated to give it a try. Katelyn stuck with her pacer and Whittni made a smart call by hanging back with them. 2nd race in a row where Katelyn and Whittni raced close together.
Have to say Coach Henes is doing a perfect job of handling her. Katelyn while breaking records on the track is also obviously not neglecting her studies. Coaches get ridiculed when student athletes fail in the classroom. Which doesn't seem fair. But let's give credit to her coach for doing so well with this phenom. It can't be that easy.
Congratulations great run! She is running and competing with the best and fastest women in the nation! (And loving it) They are pushing her so much. Great run by Monson !! She is a gun
We are witnessing something so special, that is Katelyn Tuohy. Just 20 years old!! She passed the 2-time US champ as if she was just an average runner.
Something special would have already been waiting by 20. She won't be anything special lol. The real Olympians/special athletes would be pro already and be on the world stage, not collegiate.
I absolutely love to watch Katelyn Tuohy run!!! What an amazing ''stride'' she has for her size!....no upper stiffness or rigid movements whatsovever....I'm like ''wow''....what an incredible & beautiful thing to watch when she runs!
This is pretty awesome.....Its a pleasure watching Katelyn run....I love to see how easily/smooth she is running and looks to have her strategy down inside her head...knowing what she needs to do and when.
Do you understand what the job of the commentator is.... Hopefully your remote has a mute button since you are so offended by a person doing their job.......
@@bigdogstreetperformance6761 A commentator should add to the moment or not say a thing. In 1980, as it was ending and the crowd was starting to go wild as it was being realized that the USA Hockey team was going to win the Gold medal, Al Michaels just quit talking completely, certainly over a minute and possibly over two. Nothing he could say would or could add to the moment. If a commentator has such a motor mouth that it becomes a constant stream of innocuous chatter then your mind is going to turn it off because it it annoying. The case here. I do often watch team competitions muted, for that reason. I just wish I didn't, especially for reasonably short(3-4 minute T&F events where the action speaks for itself.
When we see her in the first couple of seconds of this video she looks like an 8th grader who snuck into the meet, there's something about the shape of her face and way she holds herself that looks even younger than her 20 years. This makes the juxtaposition of her speed and 3rd place with the adult runners even more striking.
Lately will be in the Olympics soon! Monson ran a incredible race but Katelyn has 2 more years of eligibility left and if she is running this well now what do you think she’ll be running like in a couple years! She is a phenomenal runner!🙌👏👍
Monson is like otherworldly or something. But Katelyn looked smooth and relaxed and congrats to her. I feel bad for Elly Henes though. I know she probably wanted to run faster.
Awesome run by Monson and Tuohy! The American and Collegiate record in one race....awesome! Such a joy to watch such running. It is going to be so exciting to follow Tuohy as her running career continues. Tuohy is not only graceful on the track...she exhibits real class by openly praising Monson like that (not that Monson doesn't deserve it).
I watched this live and still can't figure out why the director missed Katelyn Touhy finished. Sure show the winner but when that's over go to Touhy, who quite obviously is the new big thing.
Why is the woman holding the tape at the end a) in lane 2, and not on the inside of the track and b) why doesn't she move off the track after Monson finishes? Granted, that's not my main takeaway - great runs by KT, Monson and Henes too. It's going to be great following Touhy over the coming years!
It made sense for the tape holder to be in lane 2 for the first place runner to cross, because there were still other runner who had been lapped and were using lane 1. As for why she didn't immediately get off the track without impeding any other runners after Monson broke the tape...your guess is as good as mine.
How about that Monson! I watched a lot of Katelyn's hs races and wondered how she would fare as the athletes became as strong as she was/is. What a runner!
Kinda funny that the cameraman was tracking Tuohy early on while the commentators were discussing Monson et al in the lead pack - as they should. Another week another record for Katelyn, is this going to be her summer? re-writing at least the local track record every week?
after taking a closer look at this particular film here.. i still sometime can not help but wonder what lovely & mystereious critters we all are i mean
I don't know of anyone who wouldn't be intimidated by Katelyn. I'm intimidated, and I'm an 63 year old 235 pound trucker who hasn't done any real running in 40 years!
