Tollefson, MinnPost Eye the Beijing Olympics

It's January 9, 2008 so I guess we better start talking about this year's Olympics before the year gets too far along!

MinnPost, the ambitious new web-site sanctuary of so many Star-Tribune and City Pages refugees, just ran a THIS long profile of Carrie Tollefson to kick off its Olympic year coverage. Jay Weiner, who has covered every winter and summer Games since 1984, catches up with Tollefson who made the 2004 team in the 1500 meters.

As she told DtB back in September, HERE, 2007 was a difficult year Tollefson, but one that ultimately led to relief from injury for the Dawson native and renewed hope for another Olympic berth in 2008.
