“I ran today with one less hamstring than usual and obviously that was pretty difficult, but …
I said to the doctor, ‘Can I still run?’
she revealed to the media after racing in the repechage.
Someone knew it was Grit Week!
I go to the orthopedic today, but have been able to move around a little bit.
You know what it takes to drive 5 hours with a stiff leg?
I know many are probably wondering why are we getting so many Michelle Jenneke updates?
First, content, content, content.
Second, she was an Internet OG.
This is for everyone who remembers 2012-2016 and Jenneke was everywhere.
It’s important to honor the legends.
Third, you try running an Olympic race with a ruptured hamstring.
That deserves to be talked about no matter what you do.
Love that her first question was ‘can I race?’
That’s grit personified.
That would make Dan Campbell, Antonio Pierce, Jim Harbaugh blush with pride.
You get out there and run for your country.
Get well soon, Michelle.
See you in physical therapy.
