necessarily conform to the conventional idea of what a runner
should look like. But the body she has is capable of carrying her
over epic distances. (2:05) An update on Nike’s Breaking2
project—the quest to help three of the world’s best athletes run a
sub 2-hour marathon. (46:17) In the Kick, some extra proof that
