CU trackster Jenny Simpson Named USATF Athlete of the Week
Jul 25th
“It’s always a good feeling to win no matter what the venue,” Simpson said. “Monaco is a special stage though. Having a strong finish against some of the toughest 1500m competition in the world gives me loads of confidence.”
Simpson led as the bell sounded for the final lap, but Kenya’s 1500m national champion Hellen Obiri took the lead from Simpson on the back stretch. But Simpson unleashed a furious kick to regain the lead and achieve her first Diamond League win of the season.
While Simpson finished first, her U.S. contemporaries also fared well. Brenda Martinez, Shannon Rowbury, and Gabrielle Anderson took four of the top five spots. The four Americans all ran under 4:01.50.
“The strength and depth the U.S. middle distance women showed in Monaco was impressive,” Simpson said. “This is the most competitive time for the 1500m I can ever remember. I feel honored to be a part of it.”
The reigning world champion sets her sights on defending her crown in Moscow in just over two weeks.
“This is exactly the momentum I wanted going into World Championships,” Simpson said. “Moscow will require so much focus to get through the preliminary rounds in order for me to even have a shot at defending my title, but I’m excited for the challenge.”
Now in its 12th year, USATF’s Athlete of the Week program is designed to recognize outstanding performers at all levels of the sport. USATF names a new honoree each week and features the athlete on www.usatf.org. Selections are based on top performances and results from the previous week.

Police are trying to identify two male suspects who investigators believe are responsible for stealing an unattended backpack outside the Target store, located at 2800 Pearl St., on July 12, 2013. The incident occurred at approximately 3:54 p.m.
The male victim told investigators he was waiting outside the store for an acquaintance to arrive. When the acquaintance showed up, the victim walked away from his backpack for a few minutes, forgetting that he had left it behind. Inside the backpack were personal items and a Samsung laptop computer.

The main suspect is described as:
