Out of the shadows

Article Abstract:

Jacobs at 33 has already been an Olympian three times, won the National 1500 six times and is a champion miler. Yet few in the US know about her. Married to her coach, Tom Craig, she reasons that her lack of gold at the Olympics contributed to her neglect by the media. Yet she still trains hard.
