Interesting Grete Waitz Fact

From the AJCs online article here

Waitz first won the hearts of Atlantans in 1983. At the start of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution Peachtree Road Race, she was pushed to the ground. Her brother scooped her up, and with a large, bleeding bruise on her thigh, Waitz won in then-record time, 32:00.2. She went on to win the race three more times.
