"RML: Do you ever read peanut gallery comments about you and other elite runners on Letsrun or other running b-boards? Do you ever feel the urge to respond or engage in the ongoing debate about pros such as yourself?
Hall: I stay away from message boards at all costs. Not to say that everyone messaging on letsrun has no idea what they are talking about, but most of them don't. With that said, I think Letsrun has done tremendous good for our sport and continues to promote our sport in new and innovative ways. However, as an athlete I can't be reading about what someone else believes about me who has maybe never met me or has no idea what kind of shape I am in. I have to stay focused on what I believe is true about me and focus on letting that out."
