Mizzou Links for July 25, 2022.
🙁
Even the greats need to slow down every once in a while.
Karissa Schweizer’s post-Mizzou career has gone pretty well thus far, but it hit a bit of a snag this afternoon when Schweizer had to stop running her World Championship race due to injury.
Former Missouri track and field star Karissa Schweizer did not finish in the 5,000-meter final at the World Championships on Saturday in Eugene, Oregon. She appeared to pull up with an injury or cramp toward the end of the race.
Schweizer was in eighth at the halfway point of the final, running close to the front five and alongside teammate Elise Cranny, before stopping with a little more than 800 meters remaining.
Scweizer later confirmed the injury with a devastating photo.
Heartbroken. This sport can be brutal sometimes. I’m proud of the way I competed, but sometimes your body doesn’t cooperate. Congrats to @elisecranny13 and @emilyinfeld for representing @teamusa so well. pic.twitter.com/mk1qSaGuGK

Tough blow for the GOAT. Rest up, Ms. Schweizer! Hope to see you running for the USA again soon!
