Finished 5th tonight. A bit disappointing cause her time is far worse than her personal best, but she probably has dead legs with all the races she's been doing. Big leap from NCAAs to competing with the best runners in the world, so top 5 in the world aint bad!

Is she expected to be on the olympic team? Haven't followed how her times stack up against the rest of the world right now.

She looked off. I don’t know much about nothing, but her stride didn’t seem right.

Yeah she probably will be. She won the American qualifying heats and was the top American in last night's race. Her best time in the 200m of 21.77 would have placed her second last night. She was above 22 in the semis and the final race in this competition though. Will be a formidable group to medal against -- the 3 Jamaicans and the British lady also of Jamaican descent. Got her first taste racing against the best of the best, while the Jamaican lady that won it ran the 2nd fastest time in history.

Still amazing that she came to UK not even 100% focused on track, eventually became NCAA champion and now a month later competing vs the legendary Jamaican runners.

I know this is out there, but she changed shoe companies right before this meet. The Nike spikes she ran with at UK are the most preferred plus she said in an interview during the NCAA about how much she loved those spikes.

I’m curious if she will stay in UK and train with the same sprint coach. He done amazing work with her.

From my somewhat trained eye, her start has always seemed a little off. She's not the quickest off the blocks and then gets vertical too suddenly. I'm sure she's gotten great coaching, so I wonder why that hasn't been improved.

I think they said Steiner ran 57 races this year compared to the avg 15 - 16 for the typical pro.
