Kim Jones Biography

Kim Jones is one of the most popular and richest Marathon Runner who was born on May 2, 1958 in Sonoma, United States. Kim Jones was born on May 2, 1958 in Sonoma, California. She had a successful high school running career, winning states titles in the 400 meters, 800 meters, and mile.

She competed in the World Championships marathon again at the 1993 meet. Because of a slow pace early in the race, Jones led the pack from the 5K mark through the first thirty kilometers. At this point, she began to fall back, explaining later that she “got real mad” and “wasted energy” after contact with another runner. She finished the race in 8th place with a time of 2:36:33. Two years later, she again competed at the World Championships in the marathon, this time finishing 16th with a time of 2:37:06. In February 1996, she tried for the third time to qualify for the Olympics in the marathon, but she failed to complete the race due to illness. Then, in June, she ran the 5000 meters at the Olympic Trials, a distance she had not previously run competitively. She told Runner’s World that because her “breathing problems don’t usually start for 15 minutes or so,” she would be able to complete the race before her asthma began bothering her. At the Trials, she finished 7th with a time of 15:53.58.

Given her performances in 1991, Jones was among the favorites to qualify for the 1992 US Olympic team and, perhaps, even compete for a medal at the Olympics. Jones injured her ankle, however, only weeks before the Olympic Marathon Trials, and despite continuing her training, she earned a “Did not finish” result in the race. Later that year, at the New York City Marathon, Jones was again unable to complete the race, this time dropping out after 17 miles due to breathing problems. Following the marathon, she suffered from bronchitis and was bedridden for a month while recovering from her illness.
