Featured Content
Jenny’s grandma likes for the race victor (Jenny being that victor, of course) to cruise through the finish tape leaving plenty of space back to the rest of the competitors. “Easier on my heart!” she says. But that’s not Jenny’s style. Her races typically conclude with a photo-finish, mad dash… and sometimes a crash across the finish line. Click around and re-live these instant classics. Enjoy some “off-the-track” fun watching some of her other top projects. And always — Work Hard, Live Right, Be Brave.

About Jenny
OLYMPIC TRACK & FIELD ATHLETE
Jenny Simpson
How good can Jenny be? She’s on a mission to find out. Adding to her medal count (she already has 1 gold, 2 silvers, and a bronze) requires more than just training hard on the trails around Boulder, CO. Her mental toughness and positive outlook on life are important pillars to her method. When Jenny’s not taking victory laps in stadiums around the world you just might spot her rocking her slightly dusty Pumas in a local coffee shop. Say hi. She’d love it.</span
