London 2012: Women's 10k

Rain did not stop women from vying for a spot on the Olympic team Friday evening in Eugene. It was a tight finish, but Amy Hastings came out on top at 31:58.36. Finishing a heart-wrenching 4th in January's marathon trial, Amy went into the race hungry. It's looking like Lisa Uhl and Janet Cherobon-Bawcom will be rounding out our 10k team.

In other details...Marblehead, MA native Shalane Flanagan finished third in the event, just days after completing a 30 mile training run. And despite her outstanding efforts, Flanagan has chosen to focus her sights on the marathon instead of the 10k. She did, after all win this winter's trial marathon that left Hastings wanting more.
