Olympic U.S. Women’s Marathoners Chosen

In early April of 2004, some of the nation's top female long-distance runners gathered in St. Louis – to compete for three coveted positions on the U.S. women's marathon team. Those three runners, along with an alternate, are going to Athens, Greece this summer, to take part in the Summer Olympic Games there.

Also going to Athens to work with those runners is Julia Emmons, Executive Director of the Atlanta Track Club. Emmons spoke recently with WABE's Brian Smith.
