Molly Seidel may have been competing in 168 just her third marathon but the American relished the role of disruptor as she ran alongside the sport's elite and took bronze in the Olympic women's event on Saturday (Aug 7).
Seidel, who switched from shorter distances and debuted at the US trials in Atlanta last year, had not made any prediction lists in a field led by heavyweights like Kenya's Brigid Kosgei and Ruth Chepngetich, the world champion.
"I was really trying to keep an open mind. I had the same goal that I had going into the US trials of just, stick my nose in it, don't be afraid if you're up in the front," Seidel said.
"I think my goal today was just go in and have all of these experienced marathoners be like, 'who the hell is this girl?'"
They know who Seidel is now, after she became the third US woman to get a medal in the event after gold medallist Joan Benoit in 1984 and bronze winner Deena Kastor in 2004.
Seidel, 27, did confess to a moment of awe as she was running alongside world record holder Kosgei.
"I was a little bit star struck, I look up to these guys a lot," she said with a laugh.
