Des Moines, Iowa - Women's track and field assistant coach Samantha Bluske ran in the 10K at the USA Track and Field Championships in Des Moines, Iowa today. Running under her sponsor "rabbit," Bluske crossed the line in 33:48.11, taking 13th place.
"The plan from the beginning was to race from the back," Bluske said. "It's a bit humid here so I figured if I race smart, went out controlled, then tried to race pretty hard in the last 5k I could catch a few people and hopefully finish a little above my seed. I feel like I carried that out pretty well.
