Amy Hastings's Tears of Joy

Amy Hastings of Brooks Running shed tears of joy after her dramtic come from behind win with 150 meters to go in the Women's 10K. Hastings was fourth at the 2012 Olympic Marathon Trials in Houston at the begining of the year. Tonight in Eugene Hastings beat Marathon Olympian Shalane Flanagan and NCAA Champion Natosha Rogers to win the USA title and stamp her ticket to the 2012 Olympics. Also on the team because of A Standards are Lisa Uhl and Janet Cherobon-Bawcom if Shalane Flanagan decides to focus on the marathon. Rogers does not have the A standard, so she will not be on the team to London.

Tears of joy in Eugene after tears of disapointment in Houston.
