A Fresh Look At Competition
California
This week it was announced that the Olympic Marathon champion, Sammy Wanjiru, will run this year's edition of the Chicago Marathon. I, for one, am very happy that Sammy has chosen to come back and defend his title. His presence in the race will certainly push us all along to run faster than we otherwise could. I believe that running with others who have experienced their own breakthrough helps me to enter into a breakthrough of my own. by Ryan Hall

It Begins... by Ryan Hall
California
I can't believe its already August! Last week I finally returned home to Mammoth Lakes, which coincided nicely with my return to 'true' marathon training. I write 'true' because I have learned to embrace all the different elements of marathon training, including the month break after the race and the two months of 5k/10k training. However, I always get excited when it becomes time to put in those long, hard runs that characterize what preparing for a marathon takes.

ING New York City Marathon: Part 1 of 2
New York
I woke up at 5 am yesterday morning without an alarm, wide-eyed and full of optimism. It felt almost wrong that the day was finally here. I had been looking forward to this day since I first watched the 2006 ING New York City marathon from the lead vehicle. From that day I was hooked on the marathon and couldn’t wait to run myself and test myself through the five boroughs.
After doing some light stretching and eating my typical pre-race nut butter sandwich and Cytomax protein shake I headed down to catch the elite athlete bus that would bus us to the staging area on Staten Island. The bus ride was the quiet before the storm. It was quite a spectacle arriving at Staten Island with the masses pushing towards the race start. The enormity of the race I was about to partake in was setting in. by Ryan Hall

Loaded field set for USA Men's Marathon Championship
New York
It's difficult to pick a favorite for this weekend's USA Men's Marathon Championship. As one of the most competitive U.S. men's fields outside of an Olympic Trials lines-up Sunday at the ING New York City Marathon, the field is loaded with a wide range of experience and emerging talent.
Ryan Hall (Mammoth Lakes, Calif.), sports the fastest marathon in the field (2:06:17) but Meb Keflezighi (San Diego, Calif.) has seen a return to the form that earned him an Olympic Silver medal in the marathon in 2004.

This week brought the first signs of fall and with it the excitement of increasing fitness as the ING NYC marathon draws near. For the first time this summer the shirt is staying on unless we are really running hard and I have already begun craving pumpkin lattes from Starbucks. There are many parts of fall that I enjoy, but the best part of fall is the feeling of being weeks away from top form. by Ryan Hall

Running is no place to waste time
Colorado
Ryan Hall went to the mountaintop last weekend and gained unexpected enlightenment from an old stoner hanging out on the summit of Mount Sanitas. In the middle of a run, Hall discovered even an aging hippie can have good advice for a world-class marathoner and for those of us who are considerably slower. America's best marathoner shared his story with a gathering of 80 to 100 runners Sunday on the eve of the Bolder Boulder.

Hall upbeat after Boston beating
Massachusetts
Ryan Hall, the top U.S. male marathoner, is still a relative novice in the event, as evidenced by recollections of his first experience at the Boston Marathon on Monday. This was the most painful marathon I have run yet, he wrote Wednesday in an e-mail. It hurt bad. It was tough because I had a guy sitting on me for the last seven miles so I had to stay positive and not give in to the temptation to just settle for where I was. By the last mile I was just telling myself to drive forward with everything I had.

When Ryan Hall needs a little something to get him through the rigors of marathon training, he turns to YouTube for old clips of Bill Rodgers slogging through the streets to one of his four Boston victories. "I've drawn a lot of inspiration from him," Hall said this week as he prepared for the 113th running of the Boston Marathon. "Watching the videos ... it gives me goosebumps just thinking about it. It's crazy thinking I'll be out there going through the same experience. I feel like I'm kind of walking in the history books a little bit."

Notes: Brian Sell: The other American in Boston
Michigan
Ryan Hall ran 2:06:17 at the London Marathon last April and has the fastest seed time heading into next month's Boston Marathon. Hall, with favorite son status, is aiming to become the first American to win at Boston since Greg Meyer ran 2:09:00 to win in 1983. Not surprisingly, Hall has garnered the lion's share of the pre-race attention, but he's not the only U.S. Olympian in the field. And we're not talking about Kara Goucher, either. The runner in question, Brian Sell, trains with the Hansons-Brooks Distance Project in Rochester Hills, Mich., and he isn't bothered by any lack of attention.

So are quite a few pundits. We've seen a lot of predictions - heck, including our own - that Ryan Hall can indeed be a marathon medalist in Beijing. As young as he is, it's been a long journey to brilliance at 26.2 miles for Hall, who, early in his career, fancied himself as a miler. "You never want to believe you can't do something as an elite athlete," explains Hall. "It was really hard for me to set aside my pride and move up," first to 5000 meters and then to the marathon.

Besides logging hundreds of miles of running over the past two weeks I have been watching previous Olympic Marathons while I stretch or while doing core work.
