U.S. runner Shelby Houlihan earns silver medal in return to big stage after 4-year burrito ban

American runner Shelby Houlihan ran her first podium win in more than four years after returning to the big stage after a much-debated doping ban she blamed on a burrito.

The 32-year-old runner — who is the U.S. record holder in the 1,500 meters and former record holder in the 5,000 — won a silver medal in the 3,000 meters at the world indoor championships on Saturday.

"It's been a long journey," she told letsrun.com after her win. "I'm excited for today and now, but also kind of grieving the past a bit. It's just been a real tough journey."
