I hope it is a learning moment as all athletes fail and have bad days..remember Usain false starting…need to learn to take the bad and acknowledge the fans that love and adore you. As much as it must have hurt, she should have acknowledged and saluted the crowd for their support.

@anycoveryoulike7510

Terrible to see her fall and very sad for Athing, but at the same time it was nice to see the happiness of the 3 all making thier first olympics

They should let her run alone and see if she can beat time.

Well the US did not place in the 2024 Olympics… and only one runner Juliette Whitaker made the finals…

One of those runners should have stepped aside… but the days of respecting legends are long over…🤷‍♀️

and none of them medaled in Paris. Proving how STUPID this process is. Mu should have made the team regardless.

@BenjaminBigger-cw5eu

Play it back in slow- mo –
she got tripped by the-
woman right behind her.! 😮
She shoulda been allowed –
to advance.!! 😮
We are not fair here –
very rarely.!

That strategy of a tall, long runner, working/forcing her way inside is highly questionable. Athing MU breezing through would have won this.

What happened, Kate Grace?

MINUTO 0:44 she gets distracted, seen like she fell by herself.

Everyone feels bad for her because she fell but what about all the other runners she threw off because of her mistake? I feel bad for THEM

I was wondering why I couldn't see Athing Mu in Paris. I just found out she tripped during the trials! We love you Athing! I'm so sorry this happened to you! Thank you for representing us so well in the last Olympics. You have a special place in our hearts no matter what happens in your career. We are so proud of you!

On the day she was born her parents just said 🤷🏾fvck it and grabbed a pen and wrote down "Athing Mu" on the birth certificate

Whittaker only one to make the finals and came in second to last… we should have sent Athing Mu

The girl who fell ran faster times than the gold this year at Paris

GB just won the women's 800m gold today, a full 2 seconds slower than Athing Mu's time. I'm happy for them, but it's terrible that she was denied a chance to defend her gold because she would have gotten it again.
