i think she was covering all bases in case one race went sour. But what you get is to less that stellar performances.

Even Shalane F said it's too hard to double at the world champs (at least the 5,10). Anna has improved amazingly in the last year but she's still not at Shalane's level of last year.
I do question the wisdom of doubling. I definitely think it's too much at World's for Anna and though she did it here at USATF, and yes that is hard to do, it didn' t make for good races.
Last year it was scream to see Anna and Jenny duke it out. Anna did well but the fans lost out

She was saying she wanted to run 9:15 or so in steeple, but it just doesn't seem to happen for her. Seems like her expectations and predictions don't meet reality. She said she didn't want to place 10th in a world meet but be in the medals. I don't see this happenning anytime soon.

Bird Man, get your facts straight. Willard announced her engagement, like, a year ago, and she's not w/ Cragg.
