she said something to the effect that she will never
train seriously for the 400m, such as to go after the
WR, because she doesn't like the way her body feels
after a 400 race.
In other words (my own summation) she feels 'comfortable'
after a 100m or 200m, but 'uncomfortable' after a 400m.
No kidding!
I know to this distance-running-centric list, her comment
will sound like:
a) laziness
b) wimpy
c) no heart
I'm not sure what the answer is.

To be fair to MJ, I heard Gwen Torrence say the same thing about the 400m.
Bottom line, the 400m is a race that "hurts".
