Jenny Simpson, 2011 World Champion in the 1500m, Headlines Pro-Field 2011 5th Mile on Sept. 24th

Great score for the New York Road Runners to sign up Jenny Simpson (University of Colorado) for the 5th Ave Mile. Unfortunately, we won't see a dual with last year's 6th place finisher, Morgan Uceny (Cornell), who went on to have an amazing 2011 and was my pick to win Gold at the World Champs. Here's the @nyrr press release for the upcoming 5th ave. -- http://www.nyrr.org/news/fifthavemile.asp
