Alicia Monson is a great runner...when it comes to fast grinding races. Any race that is tactical and requires closing speed, she stands zero chance. The world champs were a prime example of this. She was with the lead pack but as the race neared the finish and the front-runners injected speed, she was out the backdoor. As such, there is zero chance she'll ever medal in the 5k or 10k. If she wants to medal, its time to think about the half and full marathons.
