Incorrect birth date The IAAF date is wrong

I wrote to the reporter who covered Tuohy for four of the article's six cited stories. I had written her to correct, I thought, Katelyn's age. She responded: On Fri, Jun 22, 2018 at 6:56 AM, Haggerty, Nancy <nhaggerty@XXX.com> wrote:

   Glad you liked the story but she told me she turned 16 this spring. I talked to her in a previous story about her getting her driver’s license.

   I spoke to Katelyn. IAAF info is incorrect. Her birthday is March 18, 2002. --Nancy

I'll write the IAAF and see if they'll change the erroneous date on their site. Activist (talk) 16:40, 6 September 2018 (UTC)Reply

The IAAF fixed their incorrect date. Let's hear it for Wikipedia editors! Activist (talk) 11:19, 26 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

"She became the fastest US outdoor high school 3,200-meter runner of all-time, r" this should be the fastest girl etc., shouldn't it? The boys' times are much faster, and I would guess some of them are outdoor times as well. 146.0.62.58 (talk) 16:57, 4 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

How do you write 3000 meters in US English

edit

Is it normal to call 3000 meters for 3,000 meters. For me it seems odd. 80.208.68.122 (talk) 18:43, 6 February 2023 (UTC)Reply
