LoLo Jones, 27-years-old, is a fan favorite that is for sure, but for a while she was kind of behind the scenes. Her fans have waited for her return and they got it at the USA Track and Field Championships. LoLo won the women’s 100-meter hurdles with a time of 12.69 seconds.
“I can’t describe it,” LoLo said after her win. “It’s great to be back home.”
This was her second career win at an outdoor USA Championships, following her success at the 2008 Olympic Trials.
