    A good runner always clocks herself. She is running alone never looking back and a very focused runner. She is a joy to watch.

      @@lukecarroll19 umm that's not the same 🤔 That's like comparing Sha Carri to Jackson Sha Carri is faster in the 100 but Jackson is faster in the 200. Sadie is faster in the 1600& mile than Leachman according to the times ran🤷🏾‍♂️ Both ran their times essentially by themselves and Sadie ran faster. We're talking about the 1600 in this thread not the 5k, lol

    I couldn't see it for a while, but the reason she's so good is look at her feet on her back kick, the bottom of her foot is pointed straight at the sky. Her stride is different than anyone else I've ever seen. Maybe that's the reason.

    Sad...North East can't afford a clock at the finish line? Elizabeth Leachman, baby! More power to ya. I'm a fan. Hope you find that perfect existence of training on the track coupled with the cross training Parker Valby has shined with. I'm no runner but I hope you stay off cross country courses & sharp, slanted indoor tracks for injury sake. I'm old, went to start exercising starting w/walking. The sidewalk I used was slanted, in a month I couldn't lift my right leg at the knee joint due to that right-leaning sidewalk the right heel had to reach further to every step ala the indoor short tracks turns

    Her coach needs to be out there shouting the splits at her. She checked her watch 5-6x and that will definitely slow you down. She might have broken the record if it werent for that.

      Checking a watch is more reliable than maybe not hearing a coach, plus she was checking twice per lap (coach would have to run back and forth across the field).

      Congratulation tilinfinity, that's a fast mile. I ran a 4:36 as a senior and got 8th in district. Now the ladies make it look easy. In the 80s, it was very rare to see a HS girl under 5:00. I think Leachman may go under 4:30 before she graduates.
