"Flanagan's parents are both accomplished runners. Her mother, Cheryl Treworgy, is a former marathon world record holder (as Cheryl Bridges - 1971) and a five-time U.S. World Cross Country Championship participant. Her father, Steve Flanagan, was also a U.S. World Cross Country Champion participant and marathon runner."
Just because someone's parents are fat/out-of-shape doesn't mean they lack athletic talent. Case in point- what happened to Bob Kennedy when he stopped training seriously.
