In the new January 2012 issue of Track and Field News, Adriana Nelson (ASICS) is among the US women pegged by writer Sieg Lindstrom with a good possibility to make the US Olympic Marathon team in the January 14th trials race in Houston. Lindstrom writes: “There’s a fledgling quintet, each with a realistic shot to win: Davila, Flanagan, Goucher, Hastings, Nelson…The 31-year-old Nelson (nee Pirtea) has gained expedited release from her native Romania to represent the U.S. She lost the ’07 Chicago by just 3 seconds in her debut. The UTEP alum has had good big-race finishes since: 3rd Rotterdam ’09, 6th Berlin ’10, 7th Osaka ’11.”
[Adriana also was 10th in London ’08 in her 2:28:52 PB.]
Six athletes represented by Boulder Wave will compete in the US marathon trials. On the women’s side in addition to Adriana, we will have Meghan Peyton (Team USA Minnesota). On the men’s side will be Patrick Rizzo (Mizuno), Justin Young, Josh Moen (Team USA Minnesota/Mizuno), and Kenyon Neuman (Team Alchemy). Meghan and Kenyon will be making their marathon debuts.

While Boulder gets buried under another foot of powder this weekend, our athletes will be out competing in five events around the world.

Reigning IAAF marathon world champ Edna Kiplagat (Nike) will compete for the first time since her gold-medal run in Daegu, racing the JCL Montferland Run 15K in the Netherlands.

From the new training group organized by Edna and her husband Gilbert Koech, Jonathan Cheruiyot will take on the hot and humid conditions of the Standard Chartered Marathon Singapore.

James Mwangi Macharia (NTN), 3rd at the Philadelphia Rock ‘n’ Roll Half-Marathon in September, will be looking for a big improvement on his 2:10:06 marathon PB in tomorrow’s Fukuoka International Marathon.

Nuta Olaru (ASICS) will race the California International Marathon in Sacramento tomorrow.

And out in Vegas, Meghan Peyton (Team USA Minnesota) and Kenyon Neuman (Team Alchemy) will run the Rock ‘n’ Roll Las Vegas Half-Marathon Sunday evening as their last big tests five weeks out from their participation in next month’s U.S. Olympic Marathon Trials.
