null

Over a span of two years from November 2009 to November 2011, Sheila Reid brought home 7 national titles to Villanova (2x NCAA XC Champ, 2x NCAA XC Team Champs, NCAA Indoor DMR, NCAA Outdoor 1500 & 5k). Heading into her final outdoor season in 2012 there we big expectations after having so much success, however she did not experience a fairy tale ending. Reid finished 10th in the 5k final at the NCAA Outdoor and was visibly devastated to finish her collegiate career in such a manner. After a bumpy road she went on to make her first Olympic team for Canada in the 5000 meters. Later this week we will have part 2 with Sheila talking about her coaching and training changes this fall.
