Olympians The University of Colorado has produced 60+ Olympians (through the 2008 Summer Games). The majority of the Olympians to come from the Boulder campus are former members of the Buffs’ esteemed ski teams, with alumni also competing in figure skating (2), bobsledding (1), equestrian (1), luge (3), basketball (3), cycling (1) while the following list of athletes have competed in track and field during the 20th Century. Ambassador David Bolen, Colorado’s first Olympian, finished fourth in the 400-m dash during the 1948 Summer Games in London, England. In his name, Colorado established the David Bolen Olympic Award in 1949, awarded to any current CU student-athlete who competes under the United States flag.

A Star Is Born Shalane Flanagan finds Her Distance
A Star Is Born Shalane Flanagan finds her distance. BY TITO MORALES hortly after Shalane Flanagan’s marathon debut in New York City, she and her husband, Steve Edwards, boarded a plane for a trip to the Hawaiian SIslands. A few teammates from the Oregon Track Club—Simon Bairu, Tim Nelson, and Lisa Koll—joined them on the getaway. As Flanagan lounged and recuperated on a remote beach in Maui, some 5,000 miles from Manhattan’s Central Park, a couple of tourists approached and gushed, “Oh, you’re that girl who ran the marathon! Congratulations!” “I was literally in a bathing suit, hat, and sunglasses,” Flanagan recalls with a laugh. “I was kind of shocked that they would recognize me.” She shouldn’t have been. While her bronze medal in the 10,000 meters at the 2008 Olympic Games may have made her a star in the eyes of the international running community, it was her scintillating run at one of the highest-profile road races on the planet that elevated her renown to just about everyone else. The runners’ daughter goes long As was detailed in “The Runners’ Daughter” [see the Sept/Oct 2010 issue], Flana- gan’s transformation into a bona fide marathoner was a long time coming. The seed was planted during a childhood spent in Marblehead, Massachusetts. Patri- ots’ Day meant an annual excursion into the city to watch the Boston Marathon. She learned early on of her parents’ exploits as distance runners, and she vividly remembers watching her father compete along the famed Boston course. -

Post Collegiate Success
POST COLLEGIATE SUCCESS Here at CU we are no more proud of the successes of present Buffs than we are of those who went on to the next level. Frankly, we don’t believe there is another college program in the country that can boast as many national level professionals. During the tenure of Coach Wetmore, numerous graduates of the Buff distance program have gone on to professional contracts. Seven are currently active. Ten have been Olympians and two have won Olympic Bronze Medals. Twenty-eight have made World Championship Track or Cross Country teams. Eighteen made World teams while still running for CU. It’s a tradition of excellence. RENEE METIVIER (‘05) ....................Distance EMMA COBURN (‘13) ....Mid Distance/Steeple Club ...............................................

Homeland Security Secretary Chertoff Visits Sandia, Speaks Highly of Labs
Homeland Security Secretary Chertoff visits Sandia, speaks highly of Labs’ antiterrorism technologies ‘We don’t need to reinvent the wheel,’ he says about national labs’ R&D resources By Bill Murphy Taking up Sen. Pete Domenici’s suggestion that he tour Sandia, Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff said during a visit to the Labs last Friday that “it turned out to be good advice.” Chertoff spent a half day at the Labs to learn about Sandia’s capabilities, and received brief- ings on several specific Sandia-developed home- land security technologies and programs. The briefings came from new Labs President and Director Tom Hunter, other members of senior management, and several subject matter experts. Following the briefings, Chertoff, joined by Domenici, Rep. Heather Wilson, and Tom, con- ducted a half-hour news conference in the Bldg. 810 lobby to talk about the relationship between Sandia and the Department of Homeland Secu- rity. Representatives from most of the Albu- querque news media attended. Chertoff said he was impressed with what he had learned at Sandia and expressed a hope to spend more time at the Labs in the future. “There is a tremendous contribution [to homeland security] to be made here,” he said. He said the energy, the dedication, and the cre- ativity at Sandia “truly are remarkable.” The 21st century challenges in national WELCOME MR. SECRETARY— US Sen.
