World Champion Athing Mu Returns To Action With Decisive Win In NYC

Reigning Olympic and world 800m champion Athing Mu made her long-anticipated return to competition here today at the New York City Grand Prix, and the 21-year-old from nearby Trenton, New Jersey, had a very good day at the office.  Unpressed, she dominated the women's 800m in 1:58.73, beating the rest of the field by over two seconds, and immediately pronounced that the rust she had accumulated from exactly 11 months away from competition had been busted.
