It is becoming routine for Jenny Simpson and Emma Coburn to take a victory lap at Folsom Field, a ritual that will be repeated this weekend when the former Colorado track and field standouts are honored during the Buffaloes' football game against Cal.
This time, however, they will be joined by Kara Goucher for recognition far overdue.
While Coburn and Simpson were backing up their bronze medals from the 2016 Olympics by winning gold medals in August at the IAAF World Championships, Goucher received a silver medal a decade in the making, as her third-place finish in the 10,000-meter run at the 2007 World Championships officially was upgraded.
