“I feel great, I feel really blessed and I am extremely excited,” said Francena McCorory after winning the women’s 400m at the adidas Grand Prix in New York this afternoon. McCorory won her pet event in convincing fashion in a world leading time of 49.86 seconds. Bahamas’s Shaunae Miller was second in 50.66 followed by Jamaica’s Stephanie Ann McPherson (50.84). McCorory, the Hampton University graduate, race a well-executed and used the stretch run to put daylight between herself and the rest of the field. “It was a bit windy, but I tried not to focus on the elements. I just focus on my race today and I finished strong,”
“Training is going well and I am in the best shape I have ever been in… I am more focus and I just feel blessed” In terms of the upcoming USA Trials, McCorory continue “I feel very confident and I just want to continue to work on my race to get better and better… training is going great… me and my coach has been working on a few things… I will be ready for the trials.”
