The race happened last October 17, 2010 in San Francisco, California.
Many health buffs women joined the cross-country marathon. Of all the blessed women runners of that marathon, Shalane Flanagan stood out. She won the marathon. She's already 29 years old but she's in great shape compare to other participants and maybe that's why she won.
She said, “If I told most people that my goal was to finish,” she explains, “they would say, ‘Well, you’re an elite runner; of course you should finish.’ But I don’t look at it that way. I’ve never run a marathon. I want to finish. That in itself is an accomplishment.” She doesn't only finish it, she topped it.
Here's the picture of Shalane Flanagan.
