Sha’Carri Richardson ran the 100 meters in 11.14 seconds to finish last and then withdrew from the 200 meters at the Prefontaine Classic. It was her first race since testing positive for a chemical found in marijuana after a win at the Olympic trials.
Sprinter Sha’Carri Richardson’s return to the track after not being allowed to compete at the Tokyo Olympics did not go as she had hoped, but she stressed that she’s «not done.» Richardson finished last in a field of nine runners in the 100 meters and then withdrew from the 200 meters at the Prefontaine Classic on Saturday in Eugene, Oregon. Her time of 11.14 seconds in the 100 was well behind winner Elaine Thompson-Herah, the Olympic gold medalist from Jamaica who clocked 10.
