  • Summary

  • As Joan enters the middle of the Olympic marathon, her lead has grown, but danger lies ahead: heat, humidity, and a hill to an empty freeway where the course turns East toward the LA Coliseum. Will her knee hold up despite the surgery that nearly cost her a bid at the Olympic Trials? And will Norwegian Grete Waitz - widely considered the best marathoner in the world at the time - come from behind and take gold?
