Google has a really dope animation if you search Allyson Felix right now :leon:

but america’s love affair with Felix is what eclipsed Ross’s legacy

As in Sanya Richards?

She only won 1 Olympic and World individual Titles.

While they are tied on 1 individual Olympic gold. Allyson won when she was younger and was consistent for her whole career. Sanya was too up and down in championships when she was going into those as favourite and world leader. American fans watched Allyson grow up she won the World 200 at 19. And she was more visible and won in multipe events. 200m 400m 4x100 4x400.

Fisher came close to putting America on the map in the 10k meter. I didn’t think he was gone stick with them but he did. Hell of a finish by Cheptegei

St Louis Rams!!!!!
Women US 400m looking rough.

If you are a decent 200m runner but not at the top, they should probably switch to the 400. Not a lot of competition at the moment
