Goucher Profiled in the Washington Post

Kara Goucher, the 2008 Olympic Trials champion at 5000 meters and the runner-up at 10,000, is profiled today, HERE, by the Washington Post as part of their "Athlete in the Spotlight" series.

The piece focuses on Goucher's decision to move to Portland, Oregon to join Alberto Salazar's Nike Oregon Project after finishing last in her 5000m heat at the 2004 Olympic Trials.

Goucher plans to race both the 5000 and 10,0000 meter races in Beijing next month.
