Francena McCorory has been on some big stages, but this is the biggest.
McCorory runs for a world title in the 400 meters this weekend at the IAAF Word Championships in Daegu, Korea, two months after qualifying for the event by finishing second to three-time 200-meter champion Allyson Felix at the USA Track and Field Championships in Oregon.
"I've been training for this track meet all year, so I'm ready to get on the track and just run," McCorory said Thursday from Korea. "(The World Championships) are a little bit harder, but overall, it's the same."
