Anna Hall shared her thoughts about competing at the Grand Slam Track meet at Ansin Sports Complex in Miami. The 24-year-old heptathlete revealed that she had a pleasant experience overall despite it being tiring.

Hall told Citius Mag (0:04 onwards):

"That was really tiring, but, honestly, I feel relieved cuz I really didn't know what those last few hurdles were going to look like and hadn't really had time to work on them. Um, so, I'm just, yeah, relieved that I made it over all 10 barriers, and today was actually really fun, which I think is the more important part of a step in the right direction."

When asked if 400m hurdles was more or less fun racing than the 400m race, Hall replied:

"I think more fun. I think the hurdles like adds a little bit of challenge of the steps and a little more satisfaction. And I kind of think this lap four hurts a little worse. So, but that one will be fun too, I hope."

Anna Hall won a silver medal at the Budapest World Championships in 2023. However, recurring injuries prevented her from scoring big at the Paris Olympics, even though she finished in a respectable fifth position. Hall hopes to make a solid impact at the World Championships to be held in Tokyo by September 2025.
