Horrible announcing through the homestretch -- like they had no idea who was even out there. FAIL.

No surprise. Jenny was a threat to the entire field before the race started. She won b/c she's awesome in her own right. Way to go Jenny!!!

The British version of this race was much better. Despite their obvious bias towards Hannah England they did a much better job, and the bias may have even helped

This race was a perfect tipping point between being fast enough to sap the kickers, but have some kicking left. I love this race, and Jenny's reaction to winning.

Those announcers have a quarter of the metabolism of the runners. They can't keep up.

If only Uceny wouldnt have fell, she would have the gold medal :(.

Why are those brits hating on America? Like they had no Idea who jenny even was?

[FalconM1970]

I was disappointed that Morgan Uceny did not find her teammate at the end of the race. After the fall, wrong place - wrong time, Jenny was all the US had left; and she was stuck in the back of the pack. By now you know, Jenny did good.

So it's great that our 3rd place qualifier for the Olympics is the defending world champ.

Way to make us Americans look classy dude.....smooth....

The announcers were classless and found it hard to give the American credit..even commenting it was a slow time and praising the Spanish lady for losing..not even coming in 2nd. Screw Spain...what..their country is the size of my backyard...fuck them. Go America and fuck Spain and Great Britain...u lost...period...we are always #1.
