Desi Davila: Rumors of Olympics withdrawal untrue
Despite the Detroit Free Press reporting her having withdrawn from the Olympic marathon, Desi Davila, the runner up at the U.S. Olympic Marathon Trials, says she has not yet made up her mind whether or not she will run.
"Just finished with team doctor, taking it day by day. Will do everything I can to get to the start," Davila posted on her Twitter page.
Davila called the report "news to me."
The Free Press report, which can be found here, quoted Hansons-Brooks Distance Project coach Kevin Hanson that Davila was unable to overcome the hip flexor injury that she has battled this summer.
Yesterday, Flotrack's Kevin Selby discusses Davila's injury woes and speculated who may be in place to replace Davila on the marathon team if she decides to pull out. Read that piece here.
