Shoe Addicts Salute: Shalane Flanagan, 2012 U.S. Olympic Trials-Marathon, women's champion, video by the Shoe Addicts, note by Larry Eder

The Shoe Addicts also sent their salute to Shalane Flanagan today, the winner of the women’s 2012 Olympic Trials-Marathon. Shalane Flanagan and Desi Davila gave the race a certain amount of tension, the kind needed for a great marathon battle. As the Shoe Addicts so eloquently put it, ” To London.”

Our second look at Nike Elite Athlete Shalane Flanagan. She amazed us in New York and now she’s back after winning the 2012 US Olympic Trials Marathon in Houston, TX. It was a great race and we can’t wait to see what she can do in London!
