Reed was the fastest female sprinter in the US for several years as well as one of the fastest in the world winning the World Championship Keirin in 2008 (among LOTS of other accolades). Now she is a world-class endurance racer winning silver in the 2011 World Championships in team pursuit as well as placing 2nd in a World Cup Scratch Race.
Jenny was a pursuiter before she was a sprinter... She's just got all-around a lot of power that she can put out for a long time *and* in bursts.
