RRW Subscribers and Track Listers,
There were quite a few married couples competing in the trials, but both
members of only one couple made the U.S. Olympic Team: Marion Jones and C.J.
Hunter. They are likely to become a "couple" of Olympic medal winners, too.
Here is how the other married couples did. If I missed anyone, please let
me know.

*Made Olympic Team
NOTE: Terrence Mahon was listed as a DNS in the 10,000m; his wife is
Jen Rhines who made the team at the same distance. Mahon, however, was
one of a number of athletes who was declared for his event by USATF, without
his knowledge. He never intended to compete, so they were not listed above.
