Stephanie Rothstein - 26.2 Miles to Houston

Stephanie Rothstein of adidas and McMillian Elite did not always believed in herself as a runner, but her father did. Stephanie's father always believed in Stephanie's potential, but it was not until her father's passing, after he battled cancer for 6 years, that Stephanie started to believe in herself. With the support of Stephanie's Mom throughout her life, Stephanie's strong belief would be tested injury after injury, missed race after missed race. Stephanie would sit out the 2009 World Trials, because of injury and she would question her career. Today those doubts have vanished and she is training in Flagstaff and preparing to toe the line with the best the US has to offer at the 2012 Olympic Trials Marathon in Houston. Stephanie believes she can be top three and make the 2012 Olympics in London. - adidas sponsored this series so check out the adios banners on the page and support Flotrack in getting more cool content.
