A Minnesota discus thrower is hoping the third time is the charm at the Olympic Track and Field trials in Sacramento this weekend. Kris Kuehl is the best woman discus thrower in the country. But in her two previous attempts to make the Olympic team, she came up short. Kuehl says she has an ideal body for throwing a discus; her arms and legs are very long and she uses them to her advantage in her pre-throw spin.
