She competed in three events at the 2002 Winter Olympics.[1] Jones attended Saint Paul Central High School where she won three straight Minnesota State High School League championships in 1993, 1994, and 1995. She also placed second in the 1,600 meter and 3,200 meter races at the state track meet in 1994.
