“forget Kara. Jenny is my favorite. And without that creepy husband.”
I am so glad to able to see a runner like JennyB!
“Her important race/races are in a couple of weeks at THE national Champs. Why waste anything on the NCAA's when you have a shot at the worlds. Just cruise through the NCAA's and put it out at nationals. Who cares about respecting the event or anyone else for that matter.”
“What happened her Sopre year?”
But nice interview, good luck, Jenny!
At least fake some respect for the event even though you are head and shoulders above the rest
