She is truly an inspiration to young and old alike. I am 74, recently had to give up running because of hip problems. Have followed Katelyn on youtube since her high school days. She is truly one of the few feel good stories in any form of sport today. Win loose or draw, her personality casts bright sunshine wherever she goes. There will be bumps in the road, but she is an amazing young lady.
If there is one thing Katelyn does after every race is recognize the efforts of her fellow runners. She pats them on the shoulder, hugs them, or shakes their hand, but she doesn't just walk away as too many of her opponents do at times. She is a class act.
@@slayer8actual1 - Most people are buggered after running this. 2 - Covid 19 anyone? What is this fascination with touching everyone, it is bizarre. 3 - She’s only doing it to gain kudos. It makes you look good.
Squeezed out to the back of the pack. Made it all up on the outside, dropped it down into passing gear and flew to the lead. Then hit the afterburners and never looked back. Such a class act to be so dominant.
I'm so happy for Katelyn , she's a Rock Star in the running world , an awesome athlete in all regards. True grit , tenacity , determination and sportsmanship.
yu good kins sir just said a mouthful ... i mean? you my good-sir... just said it buddy. you nailed it, i couldn't of said it bettre better i mean than myself i meant to say
She's so small compared to most of the other runners. But her stride length is big and it visibly looks like her stride rate is faster than all the rest.
@@bluenetmarketing Yeah honestly this is probably the only thing that might hold her back from elite status it is hard to run a hundred or more steps than your opponents (in say 5K) and win races.
You're right. That was an Einstein level move. They closed in tight in front of her, so she fell all the way back to dead last and moved around the whole pack while they were still finding their pace. Amazing!
Smart strategy. Let all the hyper ones expel all their energy in the first 30 seconds. Don't get tripped or twist an ankle. Get to the outside and move up carefully, and slowly set YOUR pace. The race will come to you. Know your times, and work to improve. In the end, DOMINATE!
When the race began, it was crowded and a real potential "trip festival." Tuohy didn't panic. She dropped back, knew she could just round the field and kick it. Whew. She's in another class altogether.
She definitely had to burn some extra energy to get up there but it offset the risk of getting boxed in. I like how she ratcheted it right up when she got to the front outside lane to snag the pole position.
Ingebretsson does the same thing in qualifying rounds. It’s what to do if you completely outclass the opposition as she goes. Keep out of trouble early. Then circle and control.
Katelyn did what she needed to qualify. A pedestrian (for her) opening 800, then started to stride out enough to stay in control, and then tested her finishing sprint. No need to expend herself as I believe this was run before the 5000.
Very good running from Katelyn 😊❤ However I'm a little bit worried as it seems to me that she does not keep to her pace when nearing the end of the race. To me it seems as if Katelyn goes into coasting mode. That could cost her some races in the future. She does not have to do that because she's not tired 😮. Congratulations to Katelyn.
She was saving herself for the 5k semifinal. Which she just won. With the 3 fastest 400 splits at the end of the race. RACE TIME FASTEST SPLIT 4200m Katelyn TUOHY 13:14.31 Katelyn TUOHY 1:13.72 4600m Katelyn TUOHY 14:24.01 Katelyn TUOHY 1:09.70 5000m Katelyn TUOHY 15:31.00 Katelyn TUOHY 1:07.00
yeah that was interesting to see how Tuohy had to get out of the pack and all the way around the pack to get to the front. She had to go out the back door to get to the front.
Katelyn’s training regiment is going the extra mile. In her example of life, she is not covered in ugly tattoos to attract attention, she uses her platform to encourage excellence in life. God Bless you, The Bear 🐻 🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
The statement on the screen " from LAST to FIRST" , ??? If you meen Katelyn, that lasted for about 2/300 meters. She had total control of that race from go to woe❤❤❤
as i watched this i wondered why so many shots either cut-off the runners heads or were focused below the waists of the runners. it wasn't until the race was over i realized my video window was too high in my browser. thanks internet. you've succeeded in making everything on earth worse that it was before you came around and took over humanity. congrats katelyn on a race well run. maybe next time i can actually see it.
Semi-finals are June 8th. After all these races, the Finals will be June 10th. Katelyn will need to get at least a 4th place in her semi-final to get to the finals where she has the potential to break another record. Go KT
Pinched at the beginning. It wasn't her strategy to fall behind at all. Guess we'll have to wait another month for a record effort unless she tries tonight in the 5000 2nd heat. 1st heat at 8:10 Eastern
Biggest stretch for the title of a video. She was never really in last place other than coming right out of the box and her move to stay unencumbered in the pack. With her brains, coaches and closing speed, she was NEVER in jeopardy. 😅
She seems to float along effortlessly and to not even be out of breath after leaving the rest far behind. Truly a remarkable little lady. I wish for her continued success and good health.
Without wishing to be a killjoy, the world record go reset in Florence with week. The first 10 came in around 13 seconds fasher than this heat, and Kenyan Faith Kipyegon ran 3:49.11. So Katelyn needs to move up in class soon and test herself against the best. Next season’s European Diamond League i would suggest. Not sure what the NCAA rules are about that and amateur status. She’s got lovely, economical gait which doesn’t waste a lot of energy or momentum, so if she can continue to build endurance I think the speed/kick is already there at the 800, and she could fulfil her promise.
It's like she has a clock in her head that tells her the exact pace needed to achieve the objective... to come first. She then runs at that pace, not wasting energy to catch up in a fast start. Then as other runners tire and lose pace, without changing pace, she simply overtakes them until she hits the front. In the closing stages she estimates her remaining energy and if comfortable THEN she increases pace to ensure the victory and achieve a record when possible. When in the lead at the tape she does have a tendency to ease up over the last 5 yards; she needs to lose that habit as she reaches elite international standard.
