Barringer first claimed the record when she surprisingly outkicked Anna Willard in Heusden (Race Vid HERE). Jenny was the 2007 USA Steeple champ and the runner-up to Willard at the 2008 US Olympic Trials. Barringer was also the NCAA champ in 2006 and 2008 (set NCAA record at that time at Drake). In 2006 and 2007 Jenny was the runner-up at the NCAA Cross Country Championships. She was also named USATF Athlete of the Week twice in 2008 (6/18/08 & 7/23/08).

#37	Kmaxson June 29 at 9:18am barringer is queen. i ran with her in hs and missed a medal ceremony to watch her break the fl hs 5k record. she is my hero. love love love her. reply
#36	LARRY CHRISPYN June 26 at 11:44pm SWEET JENNY BARRINGER BEATS ANNA WILLARD IN CHARM, BEAUTY, FITNESS AND MOST OF ALL SPEED. SO WHY DOES ANNA GET ALL THE ATTENTION WHEN THE GREAT JENNY BARRINGER SETS THE USA RECORDS? reply
#35	D Force June 18 at 10:24pm I agree with Sam Miller. Total babe show. reply
#34	Joggoo June 18 at 7:12pm pretty happy most of the time. Looks like one who is really nice and positive n that makes her faster reply
#33	Dean Rugh June 18 at 8:34am Here's what I want to know. How has Jenny not been USATF athlete of the week at all this year???? Every time she jumps on the track she not only wins but she completely destroys the field, run's alone and breaks one record or another. What are the qualifications for it? reply
#32	Sam Miller June 17 at 8:09pm babe. reply
#31	Sundog June 17 at 3:29pm Yes, she does sound very much like Carrie Tollefson. reply
#30	Phillies June 17 at 8:28am Jenny Can you do your post graduate studies @ ASU-please!!! reply
#29	Mark_in_Oly June 16 at 10:23pm darklucia said: “Good luck, Jenny! Hope her indoor 5K counts as a record since it was amazing (and I saw it in person).” That indeed was outstanding: no splits, avoiding the men warming up on the backstretch, fans almsot standing in lane one, having to run in lane 2 while lapping the entire field! Negative split too as I recall. Really gutsy! reply
#28	Anonymous Coward June 16 at 3:53pm I am not an anonymous coward - I have been at work and do not have a log in so I just posted this comment because Jenny B is so awesome I couldn't wait until I got home. That being said, I want to add to my earlier comment. Jenny is most competitve in the 1500 M if you look at world times. Of course it all depends on who is entered. reply
#27	Runhrd June 16 at 2:20pm And it doesnt hurt that she is gorgeous! reply
#26	B Fan June 16 at 1:47pm No, I don't hear a hint of Carrie or anyone for that matter. In my opinion Jenny is uniquely Jenny. And that's what make her so fun to watch, both on the track and sitting for an interview. reply
#25	darklucia June 16 at 10:19am Good luck, Jenny! Hope her indoor 5K counts as a record since it was amazing (and I saw it in person). reply
#24	Doubtfire June 16 at 9:53am Love Jenny B. Mark you guys are one of the reasons that Jenny is known. Without Flotracks coverage and interviews we would not get to see the behind the Jenny. And I get the feeling Jenny appreciates you Flo peeps, and her success will not go to her head. Come on Jenny, steeple and 1500. . you thrive on difficult challenges! reply
#23	Anonymous Coward June 16 at 8:56am Jenny B is awesome! She could have blown away the field in the 1500 and 5000M at NCAA's. The only reason I would say she should do xcountry in the fall is that she keeps improving with her coach, otherwise, I wonder how she can feel exicted about beating college students who are so slow compared to her. So if it will keep her fresh and help her and her alone I say go for it. I am sure she is an inspiration to her teammates, but they are lucky to have her. reply
#22	She Is... June 15 at 11:13pm ...so awesome every one of her interviews makes me smile. reply
#21	lewruns June 15 at 9:12pm Lance Dockery said: “Great interview! Good luck Jenny!” crystazul? is that you? lol reply
#20	100% Cotton. June 15 at 8:53pm OOOOH yeah a Jenny B t-shirt!!! Ryan Hall got one! It could be like... "NO BARRIERS FOR BARRINGER" or....something... reply
#19	Lance Dockery June 15 at 7:54pm Great interview! Good luck Jenny! reply
#18	Prodigal Son June 15 at 6:59pm Wearing the Nike t-shirt I've seen a few of the Nike Elite gals wear for the interview. Coincidence? ...........Yeah, probably. reply
#17	4sstar June 15 at 6:42pm God bless her for sticking around for 1 last semester. I'm hoping she pulls off that national title. -4sstar reply
#16	Zachary Fitzgerald June 15 at 6:12pm I hear a hint of Carrie Tollefson in Jenny's voice. Am I the only one that feels that way? reply
#15	Mad Siggy June 15 at 6:08pm damn it woman go pro already reply
#14	Sagfan June 15 at 6:08pm She is one class act and Docrun is dead on...too amazing.. reply
#13	Docrun June 15 at 5:09pm Jenny is too amazing to not commemorate for her phenomenal career. She (and a few others) are what long distance American running has lacked for so many years. Mark, I think Flotrack should do something to never let the 2009 indoor and outdoor track season to be mentioned without Jenny's name attached to it. It would be pretty amazing if Flotrack could do some kind of "Stop Jenny B" t-shirt or hype this girl up for everything she has done for our sport! reply
#12	Anthony Nuccio June 15 at 5:07pm I think she is a great runner. reply
#11	Josh Carr June 15 at 4:43pm i too would like a t-shirt. But I want a flotrack tee. I'll pay for it, honestly, just send it to me. Do you guys know how much money you could make with a t-shirt compaign? So many loyal fans that want shirts and yall holding out. reply
#10	C_town Runner June 15 at 4:01pm I love her spirit! She always has the best interviews! reply
#9	Sameer Patel June 15 at 3:59pm yeah shes pretty hot reply
#8	John Desrosiers June 15 at 3:17pm I have been won over as a loyal fan. Anyone know where I can get a Jenny B t-shirt before National Champs in 2 weeks? reply
#7	Anonymous Coward June 15 at 2:42pm she is so hot reply
#6	MikeyB June 15 at 2:32pm Let's never forget - running fast is never easy - for anyone! reply
#5	Josh Carr June 15 at 1:13pm hate to be one that comes out of the "woodworks" but if you need to run more like these ladies to be fast: http://www.nbcolympics.com/video/player.html?assetid=0817_sd_atw_hl_l0802&channelcode=sportat Oh, wait, is that Jenny in the race. Well, I'll be...you are one of those ladies. reply
#4	Nebur Ross June 15 at 1:09pm I think it's awesome that she's running XC. She clearly has so much love for her school and is such a team player, so a good decision by Jenny. XC NCAA Championchips are in Terre Haute, not too far from where I live, hopefully I'll be able to see her run. I'm excited:) reply
#3	Hailepadilla June 15 at 12:10pm she is the next american distance runner, try the 5000 mts. reply
#2	Jenny What? June 15 at 11:28am first! reply
#1	Anonymous Coward June 15 at 11:28am she is so cute... all women should strive to be like this lady. reply
