Let's get off the Jorgensen and Schweizer bandwagons and give some love to Dimoff. As a Princeton alum myself, I must admit I barely knew who the mother of two was. Very impressive.

Dimoff (Carrie Strickland at Princeton) did run a 2:30 :53 marathon last year in Sacramento. Her 10,000 pb before tonight was 32:46.75.

Silly if not absurd headline, Lets start off that you have two women that are 10 years older than Schweizer, one a world class triathlete , the other a well seasoned post collegian being both being coached by a world class coach.
You have a collegian that ran a top 10 all time collegiate 10k.
