Congratulations Amy!!

I second Brad! We all knew you'd make it!!

Congratulations Amy! I watched you run during your days at East Noble HS and it has been neat to see you grow and clinch this great milestone and goal in your running career. Job well done and best wishes at The Games in Beijing!

Hi, Amy, I think we met at Southwest Bible Church earlier in the year. I have been watching for you , congrats on your race, Sarita

Congratulations Amy! I always knew you would make it . You are an amazing person. You have and you will contionue to inspire people all over the world.Thank's for giving me a chance know you. What is really neat is that you have never changed. You have always stayed down to earth. Whatever the outcome in Beijing you will be a hero to us all.

I have followed your stories in the News-Sun for years. I honestly got chills to open up last weekend's paper to find that you were on your way to Bejing. HIGH FIVE to you and your dermination. You truly are an inspiration.

Amy, watched you run in high school and knew you DESERVED all the
success you would achieve. Congratulations and hoping the BEST is
still ahead of you. Great interview, Mark.

Great interview, Mark! Amy's mom Linda and uncle Bruce Dixon attended Chesterton (Indiana) High School which has a great track and distance racing tradition. I bet Amy's family wasn't TOO upset that Amy took to running from that very first race in 1988! Best wishes in Beijing!

Great job. These female distance runners are great role models for the young people in our sport. Good luck to Amy in Beijing.

Congratulations Amy!!! You have made East Noble family very proud. Best wishes and good luck at the Olympics.

Such an inspiration!! I'll be cheering for Amy in Beijing along with Kara and Shalane!

Westview Power!!!

I didnt even know who she was until now, but from now her biggest fan ever! Go Amy Go!

What an inspiring story of perseverance. I hope some younger runners catch this video and pick up on some valuable lessons.

Go Amy!

And thanks Flotrack for the great interview.

you're my new hero Amy! BIG thumbs up on this 10k uncut series Mark and everyone else!! It's great to see what these runners are like after the pressures of making the team are over. Some GREAT personalities!

to alberto.... amazing coach is producing amazing athletes. great interview. i love this girl- didnt know much about her and now ill be cheering for her alongside kara and shalane!!

Amazing interview.

I had the good fortune of watching Amy run during her high school career in Indiana, and will never forget watching her run people into the ground at the State cross finals at Southeastway Park. It was awesome to see her achieve her ultimate goal.

nice to see a 10k runner with a chest

great person/interview... i usually dont like to watch distance videos but she has a great story and deserves to go to the olympic... i have become a fan!!!!

Great interview. Thanks. Great hearing what goes through an Olympian's mind during a race. Great race, Amy. Hats off to Alberto, great coaching telling Amy not to go out hard and pull people along with her. Also, great prep of his athletes. The 600s in practice had Amy ready mentally. Negative splits are the way to go. Alberto was a great runner but he may be a better coach.

i second that notion on best looking female 10k runners! GO USA! go Amy!

I think the USA might have the best looking female 10K runners at the Olympics :)

Thanks for the interview guys! Congrats Amy! Your hard work and determination has paid off! Thanks for all of the great memories and experiences!

This may be your best work yet, Mark - very disarming and casual, she really opens up. What a story to tell, and what a triumph.

Awesome Amy...
Congratulations you deserve it!!!!

nice interview

Mark - I never paid much attention to Amy. But, I am going to be cheering her on now! Great interview.

Great attitude! Great interview!

That was an amazing race. Never Give Up!!!

What a race!!! Just goes to show that you can do anything if you put your mind to it.
