Track-star virgin says staying pure is harder than training

Lolo Jones has it all: she's a world-class athletic talent with movie-star looks. The American hurdler is attempting to qualify for her second consecutive Olympics, but that's not what has people talking about Jones. No, it's her candid admission that she's a virgin. An ESPN documentary and HBO interview that both aired this week touched on the 29-year-old's decision to wait until marriage to have sex. And dudes, lest you get any ideas, she's heard them all: "I've had guys tell me, 'You know, if you have sex, it will help you run faster.'" Jones said staying chaste is "the hardest thing I've ever done in my life."
