Lolo Jones thinks push-ups will give her an edge in photo finishes

June 29, 2012 by Larry Brown • Comments

Lolo Jones frequently jokes about being dissatisfied with the size of her chest, and Friday was no different.

Jones mentioned on Twitter that she was shopping for bras and someone played a cruel joke by placing a larger bra among the smaller ones, which she was looking through.

When asked by a Twitter follower why she’s focused on her chest, Jones came back with a humorous response:

u didnt see tie photo finish between Fellix & Jeneba? If only one had worn a push up bra #problemsolved RT @gunds_up: why u want big boobs?

Allyson Felix and Jeneba Tarmoh finished in a dead heat (picture here) for the final Olympic qualifying spot in the 100 meters last weekend and may do a run-off to break the tie. Photo finishes are determined by the placement of the sternum, so that’s why she made the joke.

For someone who is a world-class athlete and who seems to have everything going for her, Lolo Jones sure has the self-deprecating humor act down. If nothing else, maybe that can help her score a date with Tim Tebow.
