Be a Heather Dorniden. Any time life trips you or you trip yourself, get up without thinking you're to far left behind and run!

They said it. Unbelievable, but it happened. Great inspiration.

This is amazing! That's to remember that there is not defeat as long as​ we choose to continue!

As far as I'm concerned this was one of the greatest moments in sports

Salute her fast reaction and decision. Other athletes would have just lost the race and making excuses.

WHEN YOU FALL GET UP
NEVER GIVE UP

So the secret to giving yourself an adrenaline boost in the middle of a race is stopping to do a burpee? Got it.

Well...she did get to rest for a second 😁

The person that gave this a Thumbs down must have been watching this and fell over and just thought they were giving a thumbs up. If you can't appreciate what this runner did by winning after falling down, you should be banned from the Internet!

These days all women's sports are suspect and potentially tainted.

Great race! But If she ran that time in 2021, she would have gotten 7th place. It's not a super human performance.
