i think she can — lanis only 22 and per pb came in an in season meet — altho tbh shes better off focusing on the 800/1500 given how competitive the 400 is.

its pretty frustrating she got sick in paris bc she definitely could have been a podium threat individually given how she was building throughout the season…
