Lisa Koll Uhl Ovecomes Shoe to Make Olympics

To make the U.S. Olympic team, former Iowa State star Lisa Uhl had to become her own NASCAR pit crew.

Uhl's shoe came untied a mile into the women's 10,000-meter run Friday at the Olympic Trials.

The Fort Dodge native was forced to stop at the side of the track to re-tie the shoe — losing 50 to 75 meters on the field — and fraying nerves at rain-soaked Hayward Field.
