Shalane Flanagan, a model of consistency on and off the racecourse

Posted Oct 24, 2019
It was easy to take Shalane Flanagan for granted as a marathon contender. She brought that on herself with sustained excellence. She started a dozen races over a nine-year span, all in the competitive crucible of majors, U.S. Olympic team trials, and Summer Olympic Games; she finished in the top 10 in every one. That is a remarkable history. (ESPN.com)
