The women's 2 mile featured several historic times and drama up front. The official winner, Laura Muir broke the British national record by running 9:04.84.
here's the official comments after the event... Ethiopian teenager Medina Eisa surged to the line in the Mary Beth Hogan women's 2-mile and took the win in 9:04.39, but she didn't stay in the outside alley to start the race, cutting inside early. She was DQ'ed shortly after the race. Ultimately, Britain's Laura Muir was then named the official winner.11 Feb 2024
She was officially disqualified in the final results. The announcers were definitely asleep as should have known from step three that she was out of the race.
@@felixlingelbach2758 They are not going to announce a DQ mid-race because it would disrupt the race for the other runners. They review it and make it official later, as they should.
I don't understand why the winner of this race wasn't disqualified for leaving her lane (was on outside group) before at least the first turn. She had to be told to reposition herself before the start. A good starter would have immediately stopped the race and instructed the teenager what the rules are for running on indoor tracks. She obviously doesn't know them. This maneuver effectively put her in front of the runners starting along the rail.
That yellow line is pretty bright how did she miss that, Laura even pointed it out to her so Laura won, Eisa was supposed to wait until the beginning of the backstretch to change lanes, Other than that great race Laura and Alicia are awesome! Loved it thanks.
Laura was not trying to run her off the track, You have to move to the middle lanes to finish because of the way the ribbon holders occupy the first and part of the second lanes@@deeplorable8988
Shame that the starters didn't realise Eisa wasn't sure of the markings...had they taken the time to indicate that she had to stay outside that line...
I wouldn't be surprised if the competitors get the rules in writing in advance. Don't blame others for her mistake. This is not a new thing. Her coach should have schooled her.
@@jaredprince4772 Yes, but her coach didn't. Those interested in a fair race, might well have been satisfied had the race been interrupted & it had been made clear to her...or are all competitors also required to pass a reading comprehension test before racing?
@@archie6945 Your proposal is asinine. There is no reason to disrupt a race that will inevitably lead to scheduling conflicts for subsequent races.

@@Runner.4k Regardless UK girl cry just look at her ...u give a win to her with DQ Now I am waiting for rematch... No advantages gain by cutting early because ot is not 800m it is 3000m all it come down is the last 100m
She had a number on each side of her shorts. The number on the right fell off around 3:55 +/-. The number on the left fell off around 4:14 video time. They know who the runners are no matter what number is given them. The purpose of the number is to make it easier to identify them for those that don't know them by face. That is, the numbers are helpful for identification but not necessary. Losing the number during the race is not a reason for DQ.
Thankfully NBC didn't do these. They are effing terrible, and usually a spoiler title to boot. They shouldn't be allowed to cover anything above the special Olympics' pickleball competition.
Not sure if official starter could have called a false start since the infraction was immediate. Also not sure why the officials continued to let her run the entire race if they knew she would be disqualified. Very strange turn of events. Glad Laura won but 99.9 percent sure the DQ'd athlete would have won even if no lane infraction. They will both race another day, so lesson learned: no mental mistakes at this level.
They literally have to because of where the finishing banner is held. The inside most holder is in the 2nd lane meaning you need to move into the 3rd lane to avoid a collision. They keep the 1st lane open for any athletes that are being lapped.
Why are we showing this now, when we couldn't see any action at the time of any ustf because it blocked any streaming at the time before the world indoors championship
I am a great fan of Laura Muir , but she may need to work on that killer “ kick “ in the last 500 meters , as there will be those( indefatigable) Ethiopian lasses - who seem to be able to breeze past everyone - especially in the last 500 ….😮
With 6 laps to go I could teIl from facial expressions Monson would end up 4th and one of those teenagers would win. What a shame she got disqualified.
@@bluenetmarketing They didn't - assuming by 'they' you mean Ethiopians. The first across the line was disqualified. The person who was second across the line won. You will assume she was American. She wasn't she was Scottish. Are you as unhappy about her participating I wonder?

You are displaying much ignorance. Monson was the top "Yank" in the field and I didn't see her running wide. I did see the Scot, Laura Muir, running out to the second lane towards the finishing tape. They wouldn't hold it in the first lane and block the lapped runners. If you watch other races with Laura Muir, it becomes apparent that she is greatly respected and liked.
Eisa the winner. Did the commentators wait until over 5 minutes into the race to even mention her name? I believe so. When Muir made her move Eisa stuck to her like glue and Kara Goucher ignored her still! Didn't fit with narrative I guess.

One would think that a runner who runs internationally would be coached on the rules, but apparently not. She is a very good runner, though and she will win her FAIR share of races in the future.

It's so obvious that eisa changed lanes to quickly to get to the rail
She should have been disqualified
Love Muir and Monson, despite having strengths at different distances. Very similar in their outlook to racing, they both give it their all!
Good job Laura - love your style
Eisa should have been disqualified as she is supposed to stay outside the yellow line until after the cones when the runners in that group can cut in
Ya wasn't even close went down to the second lane two steps after the start.
She was DQ'd but somehow the announcers didn't spot it in the beginning.
That is an automatic disqualification, are all the judges asleep
She was officially disqualified in the final results. The announcers were definitely asleep as should have known from step three that she was out of the race.
Surely disqual!
Eisa should have been disqualified.Watch the begging of the race.She crossed lanes straight away
She did get DQ'd.
Muir has been a fantastic runner for some years now. She still has it. Good luck to her in the future. She is a running lady.
Ethiopian did not stay in lane at start
Eisa did not run the 2mile clear disqualification
Why wasnt she disqualified for running a shorter distance, not one judge picked an obvious foul?
She was. Someone should have told her.

Dr Laura Muir won and Alicia the world could use more of you two very nice race all of these atheletes.
Despite her making a mess at the start, at just 19 years old Eisa would seem to be the future! She seemed to be running so easily.
if they run 10 times Eisa wins 9 times she is younger and energetic.

A little dirty play by Muir going wide to block her opponent.
