A Name to Watch For

Every year, athletes come out of nowhere and discover new abilities they never thought they had. Growing up playing sports, I would never knew if that new kid on the team was going to be faster or better than me. But each year, I'd find that someone would come out of nowhere to become a star.

Mike Reneau has an opportunity to be that person at the US Olympic Trials for the marathon this weekend in New York City. Some people just don't discover their natural abilities as quickly as others.
