U.S. Distance Runner Bob Kennedy Retires

Bob Kennedy, a two-time Olympian who was America's dominant distance runner for a decade, announced his retirement from racing at age 35.
    "'I have no regrets,' Kennedy said. 'Of course, you're always thinking, 'I wish I would have done this, I wish I would have run a little faster.' That mentality is what keeps an elite athlete going anyway.'"
