Allman’s speed on her release is amazing. Also, she has to be the thinnest elite discus thrower ever.

Love it. Thanks for sharing. Been a long time since there's been any on-court/on-field good news around these parts.

Forgot the new American Men’s 4x 1500 breaking the record set by a National team. Broke it by 6 seconds.
The new record included Sean McCorty and Grant Fisher

I think she's thinner than she was in college. Totally new way to throw, really. Speed over strength emphasis. I'll bet we start seeing more slender athletes for both men and women in the discus.
