Colorado Woman’s Personal Best 10,000m Sends Her to Olympic Trials in Eugene
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KKTV) – Southern Colorado teachers’ assistant Jessica Gockley-Day has been running since she was a teenager.
Gockley-Day grew up joining her father at his races, and drew enough inspiration to carry on to her adult life. She ran track in college at Grand Valley State where she would end up a 10x All-American.
Recently, Gockley-Day beat her own personal best 10,000m with a time of 32:16.98 at a meet in Los Angeles, California to qualify for the Olympic trials in Eugene next week.
She will race Saturday, June 29th, at Hayward Field in Eugene, Oregon. You can track her results here.
