For Lindsay Krause, the first sign something wasn't right with America's fastest woman,

Shakari Richardson, came from social media.

When I saw her post on Twitter, I am human.

I was really wondering what she meant.

Lindsay writes about sports for the New York Times.

She was also a competitive runner herself.

She knows.

Athletes can sometimes post this cryptic stuff.

But she'd just watched Richardson pull off this tremendous win at the Olympic trials.

Who's going to Tokyo?

We're about to find out.

With her burnt orange hair flying behind her, Shikari Richardson dominated.

Here comes Shikari.

Richardson's going to Tokyo.

Then she ran up into the stands.

I think she's going to find mom. That's when Richardson collapsed into her grandmother's arms.

We'll talk about the race at a moment, but just the rush to get up the steps to see your family,

your grandmother, your dad, your mom, everybody.

What is that?

What did that mean?

Because my family has kept me grounded.

This year has been crazy for me, going from just last week, losing my biological mother, and I'm still here.
