DEENA KASTOR grabs Bronze @ 2004 ATHENS OLYMPIC MARATHON

BELIEVE and ACHIEVE !!! Deena, the Distance Diva, heroically came from far behind and clawed her way to 3rd place for the Bronze Medal. The D.K. autograph that is part of this video montage was obtained by TheMotionDevotion's curator when Deena visited with and spoke to the marathon training group of the Chicago Area Runners Association (CARA) on July 23, 2005 before they stepped off for a run on the Chicago lakefront.

Here's a photo of D.K. and her adoring fans at that CARA event:

As explained during the Q&A portion of her CARA visit, not until entering the stadium did she realize that 3rd place and the Bronze Medal were hers. Having come from so far back, reeling in competitors one-by-one, she had no way of knowing how many more runners were ahead until the scoreboard in the stadium revealed that Deena Kastor was headed for the podium.
