She was recently featured in an Another Mother Runner POD castwhich as you know I  LOVE!. Here's the skinny on Tollefson, she is an Olympic Runner-2004 Olympics in the 1500 race.

She recently made her marathon debut in the Medtronic Twin Cities Marathon just FOUR months after giving birth to her second child. Can anyone say superwoman? What I loved about her on the podcast was her honesty about running. Yes I would like to set a goal for myself but right now I have to focus on being a mommy. That's pretty cool if you ask me...inspires people like me to not put pressure on myself for a particular time goal but to "go after it" as she says. She also has a podcast, does commentary and has her own website and much more. Her website is awesome and she's a hoot on all her different adventures. Check it out-ctollerun.com.
