Mary Hanson interviews Roy Griak
by TJ's Turf
posted March 30, 2010 at 1:44pm

In many ways, it seems inevitable that Mary Hanson would one day interview Roy Griak. As host of The Mary Hanson Show, the longest-running program on cable in the United States (it's been on the air regularly since 1980), Hanson has tackled health and soc...more

The IAAF World Cross-Country Championship - arguably the toughest distance race of all - takes place this Sunday in Bydgoszcz, Poland. A few weeks ago, the Polish national race took place on the same course, and the lead women could barely run 6 min/mile ...more

Brianna Glenn's Blog: A Mentor

posted March 23, 2010 at 8:09pm

Back in the summer of 2008 I had an epiphany. A huge “ah ha” moment, if you will. The only downside to this was that the epiphany clearly let me know that I had no idea what to do with my life. I was considering what to do if I was going to be done ...more

Back from Doha and jetlagged

posted March 17, 2010 at 10:22pm

I like telling people how jetlagged I am after I travel. I suppose I’m trying to elicit sympathy or something. But then it occurred to me that there are probably many people out there that have never actually experienced jetlag. I throw around that wo...more

What it really means to Believe and Run On!

posted March 15, 2010 at 9:31pm

Last week I decided to sit down with my coach and tell him my plans for this upcoming season. Unfortunately, it didn't go the way I had hoped. He is such an encouraging and positive person and has been great in the five years I've been here, but I heard t...more

Dining in Doha

Eating in foreign countries is always an adventure. Coming to Qatar, many athletes weren't really sure what to expect, accept that we knew there would be no bacon served. Being that many of us had our prelims early in the morning, breakfast was a must. ...more

We're trying something a little different today. I decided to stimulate some other senses and put this interview on video. It gives you a chance to see more of an athelete's personality (and Lolo has tons of that!), as well as pick and choose what quest...more

I love it when Universal Sports covers a track meet. It means these three awesome things: I get to watch hours and hours of coverage, much of it live, at universalsports.com, which always has a clear picture and smooth feed. I get to watch maybe not h...more

Figuring out who actually reads the randomness I write about is a bit of a crap-shoot. It would be nice to do a census of my readers to figure out who my audience is. Not knowing though, gives me the ability to write about whatever I dream up without fe...more

I made it to Doha! But really, if you told me I had woke up in a part of Los Angeles I had never visited before, I would have believed that too. Well…except for the men in dresses. Other than that though, not much is different out here in the Middle ...more

People love visiting the Olympic Training Center. I guess I kind of get it…but not totally. It’s still just a bunch of training fields grouped together for different sports and they slap the Olympic rings on it and all of the sudden it seems really ...more

Can I let you in on a little secret? I’m pretty happy right now. For the last 24 hours I’ve had a permanent grin on my face that won’t go away. And yes, part of it is making the team, because of course, that was the goal. But it’s also becau...more

Sorry guys, I would love to preview the men's events as well, but there are only so many hours in the day and frankly I know much more about the women. So rather than spend my day Googling the names of some of the men, I'm going to give you a thorough wom...more

Staying the Course

Some anonymous blog reader was kind enough to post my series of results and jumps from last year up until this past weekend in the comments of my last post. The reasoning seemed to be that perhaps I was headed in the wrong direction. Or maybe I should s...more
