What has Tera Moody done lately to gain so much attention?”
“We just have to work around it,” Hudson says of Moody’s insomnia. “I have to make sure I don’t overtrain her. When she travels to a race, I have to make sure we’re not pushing her too hard too soon afterward. We have to view it as if she has a slight injury or a warning sign we’re being careful about.” When Moody looks back at where she was in college and for a few years afterward, she feels a lot healthier. At the 25-kilometer national championships in Grand Rapids, Michigan, in May, she finished third overall in 1:28:41, setting a personal record for the distance. At Freihofer’s Run for Women in Albany, New York, a 5-K in June, she finished in 16: 25 to set another PR. Her improving times are generating attention. The call inviting her to run in the marathon world championships, when it came in May, was one of the best moments of her life. After all her struggles, she appreciates the success she’s starting to taste. TERA MOODY has been up for over 24 hours. Posted on Facebook at 7:5
