Brooks: Sutherland's Choice Perfect For Her, Buffs

BOULDER – Sara Sutherland has a set-in-stone tenet when she’s working out:  Cell phone calls, text messages, emails and tweets don’t get answered. Leave a number, leave a message, leave me alone.

But this time, she made an exception. Good call, er, answer.

She was in Austin last year on the University of Texas campus riding a stationary bike while rehabbing a knee injury. The incoming caller ID showed a Colorado area code, and in Sutherland’s words, “The wheels started turning.”

She wasn’t referring to the stationary bike.

“I thought I should probably answer this one,” she said.
