I watched the video a dozen times this morning before I posted, as I wanted to make sure of what I was seeing. I used to run track, so I know about running in a pack, and really wanted to SEE how it happened.
Now, going back to review the vid, most have been replaced with still photos of after the “incident”, with them on the group, hugging, etc, but no still of the actual “tangle”.
European coverage says Abby “clipped” Nikki’s foot…American reports, not so much.
The british/new zealand websites had the vids, now they don’t seem to be working either.

Nothing now on youtube, except stills. Odd for a video outlet.
I hate to be running for my tinfoil hat, but this is so odd that the video has become “MIA” on the internet.
