Chad Hall's 20k Debut - Any Thoughts? 9/2/2012 8:36AM Reply | Return to Index | Report Post
Ryan Hall spent his collegiate career in the wrong events. A miler in HS, he only reluctantly ran the 5k in college. When he moved to the roads post-collegiately, the results were spectacular.

His younger brother, Chad, was a Foot Locker champ in HS.

He went to Oregon as a frosh and ran 14:11 in 2008 but transferred out to UC riverside.

He also seemingly focused on shorter events as 2010 he ran 3:45 for 1,500.

His 5000 pb is still 14:11 (only ran 14:39 in 5000 this year) but this year he did run the 10k (29:54) where he was the Big West champ.

He's been training with his brother.

Any chance that the Foot Locker champ title starts to re-emerge?

The fact he's training with Ryan, whose career has worsened since self-coaching (don't even argue) leaves me pessimistic.

He's a less talented stoner version of his brother who at the present moment is a complete nutjob. I wouldn't bank on many good things happening for chad.

They should both carpool to a small town north of Boston and knock on Bill Squire's door. Beg him to coach them for 1 year and let the chips fall where they may.

It would be cool if Ryan ran based on god, and Chad ran based on Satan.

I don't know what his time was but I was there and I can tell you he wasn't in the top 10 or 15, so over 62 is the most specific I can offer. After that I went to try and chase down and talk to some of the elites who had finished haha.

Why do so many people run a 1 min + positive split on this course? Is it that much tougher second half or do people just go out too fast there?

The second half is pretty tough. Most years along the water there is a stiff head wind at mile 7. Then around Mile 10/11, there is a steady climb. There is a really beneficial decline afterward though and long flat finish.
A full minute difference is a bit much, as you can easily pace it better. But 1min isnt too bad. Anything more that 90sec would mean too fast a start.

Chad will re-emerge once Ryan's coach begins mentoring him.

Why in the world would folks spend time thinking about Chad Hall? He was a mediocre college runner. He will never make it as a pro runner. I hope that he is taking strong steps toward beginning a real career outside of running.

He is Ryan Hall's brother? OK, so?
