Elle Purrier St. Pierre wins 1500m to clinch 2021 Tokyo Olympic

I’m ridiculously emotionally invested in this womans Olympic journey!

What a tear-jerking story. Gotta love this team led by a Vermonter!!!

Went to high school with her and her husband. Hardest working family that I know.

She got pushed off the track at the beginning and went on to crush every other competitor. I hope whoever pushed her off feels bad knowing they cheater and she still destroyed them.

It looks like it was McClean who caused St Pierre to get pushed off the track. She cut straight in at the start. You need to imagine a straight line from where you start to the first turn because that is the shortest distance and prevents collisions
