Contested PROD, seems to fail Notability criteria. Rmhermen (talk) 18:06, 26 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - after searching extensively online, I've found nothing reliable about this person. I verified at USATF (of which I'm one of thousands of members) that she's registered for races, see here, but not much else.  Having only won one National race, and never competed even for the Olympic tryouts, she badly fails WP:ATHLETE. Actually, my brother Bruce Edward Logan easily beats her in notability, and he's barely notable even though he's been in several Olympic tryouts and was once ranked # 1 in racewalking. Bearian (talk) 20:20, 27 March 2010 (UTC) P.S., She has never won or placed in the Freihofer women's 5k held annually in Albany, New York, which is considered the premier race for women in the United States, thus her claim of notability fails for that, too.

 * Delete. Fails WP:ATHLETE. A very good runner, but more substantial achievements are needed for inclusion in WP. Location (talk) 23:18, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. Admittedly my knowledge of US athletics is very poor but I can't say I've really heard of many of the runs she's done well in. I created an article for a friend of mine and was really wondering if she was notable. She's represented Great Britain at the European Indoor Athletics Championships so is clearly notable in terms of Wiki but I bet virtually no-one has heard of her outside athletics in the UK. This girl it appears hasn't won anything of merit, as far as my limited knowledge goes. Cls14 (talk) 11:55, 8 April 2010 (UTC)
