Jah jah. People need to start giving her her flowers from now. She has really pushed hard to be the very best she can be. Sometimes it seems like she is punching the air with these outcomes and everything. We may need to take a step back and not put pressure on the future but really highlight her past (and even recent) accomplishments. At the end of the day, she is the only woman alive who has come close to erasing Flo-jo's record. Do you know what that means... she was the closest one to actually "cleaning" the record books... because as is widely known... that record has several clouds and thunderstorms of doubts hovering over it. Let's give Herah her Hoorah.

Thank you Elaine. You have served well. Salute. Run well.

I think people should give Elaine a break she has achieved so much. Don’t put so much pressure on one athlete! Let her slowly overcome her injuries and I think Elaine should focus on world champs gold she already has Olympic Gold in her mantle! Always rooting for you Elaine!

Big up Elaine well done I'm praying for your recovery God is good all the time

[stevereid]

Men/women will fall for others to rise. It is just the way of life. We may just see some new stars come alive.

It is clear that the coach who made her career, Francis, is worth every dollar he wanted. Penny wise and pound foolish.

Elaine I am praying that God will grant you strength during this time. In a lot of interview done with Shelly ann she is always thanking God for being healthy.
I don't think a lot us track and field lovers realized how important that is.
I once heard Usain said that one bad injury can end any ATHELE career and its so sad.
Because it takes away your chance to truly pursue your potential.
I want to encourage you to thank God for the opportunity that he has given you and what you have achieved.
I will continue to pray for you and wishing you all the best, remember if this is not the end God has for you then surrender everything in his Hand and he will bring it to pass.
DONT PUT YOUR TRUST IN MAN THEY WILL FAIL.😢

I think elaine should just forget about the trials and olympic this year, and get ready for the world games next year.

[nathanburley]

Remember Stephen Francis said her biggest problem will be to stay fit.

[stevie]

I think the reality is Elaine needed a year off in 2018 or 2019. If she had that year off she could have been back and ready to go. It’s like Yohan…they’re working out too hard when they need to be resting and recovering. Also, think Elaine is much faster right now than folks realize…she’s not done. But, when she is done, I would love if she decides to coach.

Sad to see Elaine missing in so many performances and I am worried that her time is over. I wish that she was able to continue where she left off last season.

[allaboutsprinting]

Lifting her off the track is to prevent the application of pressure to whatever the injury is. It doesn’t necessarily mean that she can’t walk

[michellegill]

ETH needs a miracle that only Almighty God can provide.

[TenjaMack]

Elaine my dear take the time to heal. Forget about the Olympics!! Go for the records, retire and do your modelling, then start your family!! Focus on your family and your GOD. PRAYERS FOR YOU MY DEAR ELAINE ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[AllInTheGame]

Elaine will be 32 in a couple of wks, she's had so many injuries in her career that seem to be catching up with her unfortunately. Someone like Lanae-Tava Thomas who was probably trying to only make the 200m Team might think it's probably now worth trying to make the 100m Team as well!

[TBrl]

I don’t think Elaine will ever get back to where she was.

[speakthetruth]

Her husband is too greedy.
First she dropped Franno over money, then she left Shenika Osbourne over money too.

[Present]

She doesnt look anywhere near race ready. Sit this one out Elaine. You have nothing left to prove

[naturallyfocus]

All in God's hands, every althete journey is different. I pray that her ruff season will pass.

[shuntaimusic]

The human body is unpredictable, that level of training and performance is extremely demanding and overtime breaks down so that it can rebuild, everything is all about timing. When it's your time it's your time. Elaine has given us her all and for that we are grateful and offer prayers for her speedy recovery whether it is for this year or sometime in the future.

Some of us spoke against her leaving MVP when it happened and folks thought we were hating. Last year before the trials I even said she should go to Steven Francis to condition her ahead of Budapest.
