Nope, somebody taking a risky dive on a track face first is exactly


the type of thing we want to see elite athletes doing to try to win races. I'm surprised someone has your opinion, let alone finding people to agree with you in this thread. It's great spectator sport. (not that I was watching)

That said, I think people are right, the science suggests it's quicker to continue to run and lean forward, so she probably didn't truly gain an advantage.
