- See Less -Sara Hall didn’t really consider track and field as a career option until her senior year in college – even after picking up four state titles and a national title during her high school career, and being a member of the extraordinary Stanford cross country and track teams, where she earned four runner-up finishes in NCAA championship track races. But when 2006 rolled around, Hall brought home the national 5K road championship and the prestigious Continental Airlines Fifth Avenue Mile.
Hall is currently taking a break from cross country to train indoors and test the track as a new, permanent direction. Although she hasn’t decided whether or not the mile will be her event, she’s gaining experience through a variety of competitions under the wing of Team Running USA coach Terrance Mahon, where the 23-year-old trains alongside her husband, Ryan Hall.
Some of Hall’s personal records include running the 1500m in 4:08.99 in 2007; a road mile in 4:25 in 2007; the 3000m in 8:56.93 in 2006; the 5000m with a time of 15:20.88 in 2006; and a 10K in 32:57 in 2007.

“wow really talk about form? look at Paula Radcliffe her form doesn't effect her running, it's not about form, it's about ability and guts and training”
It would help if you didn't resort to abbreviated swear words when you post comments on this website. It shows your (lack of) maturity and it really diminishes the validity of your point.
You stated that if Sara improved her form she would beat Shannon. So that means you think that with better form, Sara can run sub 4:00 for 1500 meters (because that is what it would have taken for her to beat Rowbury last year)
Why do you make such bold statements based on pure speculation? Let's just stick with the results and give credit where credit is due.
Rowbury ran an awesome race. Sara did a great job too, but losing by 6 seconds does not support your statement that she could have run 15 seconds faster AND beat Rowbury if she had better form.
Now that's what I call a real stretch.
By the way, Sara's form has improved a lot since she started training in Mammoth
Clean cut is the way to go.
