Photo of the Week: Elite Women @ Boston
July 30, 2007 |
So last week’s “race fairy” may not have granted my wishes, but these elite women perhaps got what they wished.

Boston Marathon 2007
#7: Russian Lyubov Denisova—finishing in 7th place for women overall, in 2:38:00
#50: Californian Mary A. Akor—finishing in 11th place for women overall in 2:41:01
#61 Californian Christine H. Lundy—finishing in 12th place for women overall, in 2:41:14.
Thanks for this photo go to our very own Jeanne. Be sure to check out her other photos in her Boston Marathon set on Flickr.
We are always looking for interesting photos so if you’ve got a photo you would like featured, please leave a comment with the details. Better yet sign up for CRN’s new Flicker Group cause that’s where I got this photo from.





You can bump up Akor and Lundy to 10th and 11th. Denisova recently tested positive for elevated levels of testosterone. She was disqualified from Boston and banned for two years.
Thanks for the update Adeel. Stuff like that blows me away. I want to run better but if I was that good, no way I would tamper like that with the talent I was gifted with.
