3rd at the Trials and Bound for Beijing!
Who da thought? 3 years ago I never imagined I'd be running for a spot on the US Olympic Team. On Saturday a dream came true. This last year has seemed like forever telling people, "I'm just working part time and training for the Olympics." Well I feel justified now after putting off optometry school for a year. I'm Bound for Beijing and it feels awesome!

WOW, Congratulations from all of us in AZ, what an accomplishment... what better reason to put of optometry school than competing in the olympics. what a thrilling thing to watch especially in such a difficult and challenging race. We had several of the OR's at the hospital's where I work cheering for you as well.
