One Step: Both insignificant and Powerful

Posted 08 Sep 2016 by sara hall

A few years back I read a book called “The Slight Edge,” it was a great book that expanded upon the principle of setting your trajectory on the right path by making good seemingly insignificant decisions that will drastically change where you end up in relation to your goals.  They used the illustration of a […]

Olympic Marathon Trials

Posted 16 Mar 2016 by sara hall

The Olympic Marathon Trials happened on February 13th.  I did not make the team, and far from it- it was the first race I’ve ever had to DNF in, something I had hoped I’d never have to do.  When I toed the line in LA on a blazing hot day, I had incredible peace and […]

Rebounding

Posted 18 Jun 2015 by sara hall

By, Sara Hall “If you’re going to be a big dreamer, be ready to experience a lot of disappointment”. This is the line that stood out to me most during the documentary on Ryan recently released online by Flotrack. Often times I feel I spend half of my career rebounding from disappointment and setback and […]

My Debut Marathon

Posted 22 Mar 2015 by sara hall

By, Sara Hall You know when you get off the plane and do a shake out around congested LA airport that you’re excited! I arrived in LA just itching to get to the starting line. I had a healthy respect for the marathon and knew that it can take even the least suspecting of victims, […]

By, Sara Hall Hello from Addis Ababa, Ethiopia! I’ll attempt in one paragraph to sum up my life and racing since my last blog post 5 months ago…. Ready, Go! After my appendix rupture and taking two weeks completely off of running, I started back training with a shuffle that eventually became a jog and […]

A new coaching season w/ Jack Daniels

Posted 15 Sep 2014 by sara hall

I first met Jack during the summer between my sophomore and junior years in high school back in 1999 at Jim Ryun’s Running camp. My Dad and I attended the camp that summer and we were like sponges, soaking up every story, every conversation, every video, and every seminar we attended. One of the speakers […]

Summer racing & season of Pain

Posted 27 Aug 2014 by sara hall

When I look back on Summer racing of 2014, I will remember two things: a fun and successful string of road races, and enduring a lot of pain! Since I last blogged, I continued my binge of 10kish distance races with Bolder Boulder 10k: 3rd place team finish and 16th individually, and a 9th place finish […]

Spring Distance Heptathalon

Posted 23 May 2014 by sara hall

This last month of racing has been a fun and successful stretch… after the 10 miler I stepped it down for a couple competitive efforts in road miles. The short races set me up well for my fastest season opener and 3rd place in the steeplechase (9:42) at Payton Jordan. After the steeple, I ran […]

Baby Steps and a Lesson from Bob

Posted 21 May 2014 by sara hall

By, Ryan Hall This clip, http://youtu.be/p3JPa2mvSQ4, basically sums up the last season of training for me, and yes Bob, baby steps really do work.  Less than 5 months ago I wasn’t able to run at all, and then was able to run but still with some pain.  It took a lot of baby steps throughout the […]
