49.47-second split for Rhasidat Adeleke to anchor Texas T&F/XC to victory at the Texas Relays, holding off NCAA indoor champion/US indoor record holder Britton Wilson. That is...fast. (Is now a good time to mention Ireland didn't pick her for the mixed relay squad in Tokyo?)

Reaction on the (literal) ground

@rhasidatadeleke @TexasTFXC Have I miscounted or did she win every single relay? Medley, 100m, 200m & 400m, in one day?

@rhasidatadeleke @TexasTFXC That was 2 years ago when she was a teenager. She also was running the shorter sprints at that stage and hadn’t moved up to the 400m. Now she was probably fast enough to have been on that team, bur it’s not the travesty you’re making it out to be

You're right re the shorter sprints, but she still split quicker than any potential squad member had ever split in a 4x4 that summer. In horse racing terms, the course and distance form was in the book (even though she was focused on the 200)

@rhasidatadeleke @TexasTFXC She’d definitely be picked now 😬

@rhasidatadeleke @TexasTFXC Well said

@rhasidatadeleke @TexasTFXC Brilliant as always Rhasidat and teammates 💥🎊🇮🇪☘️🇮🇪☘️🇮🇪

@rhasidatadeleke @TexasTFXC She was only a teenager

@rhasidatadeleke @TexasTFXC lúthchleasaí don scóth is é í, comhghairdeas Rhasidat!

@rhasidatadeleke @TexasTFXC Look at the positive not the negative
