From Last to First Dec 20, 2010

She finished last. Dead last. It wasn’t really close either. She finished 76 seconds behind the second-to-last competitor and over 5000 meters that is a significant distance. It’s more significant when it’s at the Foot Locker National Championships, where distances are covered faster than ever as the country’s best harriers all convene for one race each year to decide a champion. It wasn’t supposed to end this way for Emma Brink, though it never is for any qualifier at Foot Locker, yet in crossing that finish line with the slowest time on the day, Brink may have left an equally important mark on the race for many of her fans and peers.

MileStat.com Athlete Journal: Mattie Webb (Entry #9) Nov 30, 2010

Photo by John Olson of scrunners.com   Hi everyone!  I can honestly say I am so excited to write this journal.  I really think I could talk on and on forever about my experience this past weekend.  Crossing the finish line, knowing I earned a plane ticket to San Diego, was the best experience of my life.  I don’t think anyone can understand the excitement I faced when I crossed the line.  I had been dreaming of this moment my entire life.  However, I never, ever thought it would happen.  Last year, I crossed the line in excitement, getting a 20 second PR.  However, I was 111th place in the seeded race.  That year, my goal was to not place last.  The emotion I felt when I crossed the line this year was all because of how far I’ve come.
