A while back I saw a presentation from a sports psychologist about athletes performing at their personal top performance levels (aka being 'in the zone'). The common features no matter what the sport were that they were relaxed, not anxious or distracted by anything, focused, not over-thinking what they were doing, and enjoying themselves tremendously. So after seeing that attitude pre-race I was not surprised to see her blow sway the competitors.

Lolo Jones. She is the virgin.
