Jessica Tebo couldn't bring herself to watch Olympic Trials

null

In 2012 Jessica Tebo, formerly Jessica Pixler, was the top seed in the NCAA and one of about only six women who had run the 5k Olympic A standard (sub-15:20). With the Olympic Trials in site and a realistic shot at making the London squad, Tebo suffered a broken foot at the NCAA Championships that sidelined her for the rest of the year. Tebo couldn't bring herself to even watch the Olympic Trials 5k and afterwards contemplated never running again. After regrouping and signing with new sponsor, Brooks, Tebo is getting healthy and looking ready to make a team in 2013!
