Alberto Salazar said Monday the three U.S. Olympic team runners he coaches -- Kara Goucher, Amy Yoder Begley and Galen Rupp -- responded well to a week of training in Houston and are ready to compete in the Summer Games.

"The workouts went great," Salazar said. "We ran in hotter conditions than we expect to see in Beijing."
