What I learned today 11/8/12
I learned about Kara Goucher. She grew up in Queens but now
is ended up in Beaverton Oregon. She is an amazing athelete, mom, and wife. She
has been on the Olympic team twice for the marathon. In the article I read it
talks about the Huston Olympic trials for the 2012 team. She said she didn’t
feel stressed at all about the trials she was just nervous because she new she
would be going up against some pretty strong runners. She knew she had done all
the preparation she could. “The last 200 meters has never felt any better” said
Kara, she new she would be going to the London Olymipc’s! Her coach and her
husband were at the finish line ready to congradulate her.
“Never count yourself out, you never know what you can do” –Kara

Very cool! Kara Goucher sounds like a cool person and she looks so happy. That's cool how she lives in Beaverton instead of somewhere like Los Angeles or NYC! You have good information about her being an athlete, mom, and wife. Also you have good information about her confidence and optimism. The only thing I'd recommend is putting more information in your post so it's not so short. Good job though!
