Where is she at?
Melody is back in Colorado now. She's moved around a lot over the last couple years. She didn't bail out on running. Things just haven't quite worked out the way everyone thinks it should for someone with talent. Everyone thinks that all the talented runners get these sweet, plump contracts from Nike, etc and it doesn't always go that way. And then a season with injury and you have to work to pay the bills - then, it's hard to get the training in because you have to work, and it just snowballs from there. i hope she can get back to the same level she was at before, but I've never heard her complain and she's never tried to offer any excuses.
Mel recently moved back to Boulder and may suprise some people this spring....she was very strong this past summer.
