Jordan Hasay took third place in the women’s elite race at the 2019 Boston Marathon, but couldn't finish out Sunday's Chicago Marathon due to a hamstring injury.
Arroyo Grande native and Mission Prep graduate, Hasay says she was healthy and ready to run at the Chicago Marathon, but felt a sharp pain in her hamstring 2 miles into the race and had to stop.
In an Instagram post, the local marathon runner says she tried to keep running after stopping to stretch, but the pain held her back.
Despite the emotional and physical setback, Hasay said she is taking the time to rest and gear up for the 2020 Olympic Trials in February.
