Improved from 4:32\/16:33\/36:58 at East Wash.  Ran 4:17\/9:17\/16:09\/33:37 her first year at Oregon. She qualified for NC indoor in 3k and 5k and finished 7th at NCAA outdoor in the heat and humidity of Arkansas.  Her senior year she was an all-American in cross (40th) and was runner-up at Pac-10 in 10k where she ran a near pr 33:38. Also 6th in 5k.  Too bad she didn&#039;t have four years at Oregon.  Nice to see slow development in 10k so she didn&#039;t burn out.  No surprise about her success, she has a very good build for distance.  Good biomechanincs.  Good Luck Mattie!","date_added":"Sep 17th 2013, 7:37pm","nest":0,"liked":false,"member":[],"can_delete":false,"item_id":176132,"item_type":"news","pb_image":"members\/avatar\/1335.jpg","pb_title":"Adam Schneider","pb_url":"profile.php?member_id=2572","pb_url_dns":"https:\/\/Ads.runnerspace.com\/","pb_wally_id":"1201"},"853013":{"pb_id":"3026","pb_type":"members","likes":"0","parent_id":"0","pid":"853013","comment_id":"853013","member_id":"3026","comment":"Peyton is the one to watch. She&#39;s running the 5k as her final tune up for the marathon champs and she&#39;ll have much more prep time for the 12k should she choose to run it. Assuming she can pick up a couple of points at the 5 (that&#39;s about all we should expect) and she put together something similar to the 20k at the marathon she will be in the driver&#39;s seat for the 12k. The marathon will be double points so a top 3 finish will be a big boost. <br \/>\n<br \/>\nTwo wildcards - Sara Hall and Delilah. Sara&#39;s in Kenya right now but should she run the 12k I would not count her out. The same with Delilah. She might not run the 5k but if she does and scores well, the triple points at the 12k will be enticing. She&#39;s become much more comfortable with the longer distances since the summer.","date_added":"Sep 10th 2013, 9:53pm","nest":0,"liked":false,"member":{"wally_id":"35","email_settings":"7168","email":"chrisnickinson@gmail.com","address":"chrisnickinson","gender":"m","member_id":"3026","member_name":"Chris Nickinson","avatar_location":"av-3026.jpg","avatar_type":"upload","avatar":"\/\/www.runnerspace.com\/forum\/uploads\/av-3026.jpg"},"can_delete":false,"item_id":176132,"item_type":"news","pb_image":"\/\/www.runnerspace.com\/forum\/uploads\/av-3026.jpg","pb_title":"Chris Nickinson","pb_url":"profile.php?member_id=3026","pb_url_dns":"https:\/\/chrisnickinson.runnerspace.com\/","pb_wally_id":"35"}},"last_id":"853013","url":"comments.php?item_type=news&item_id=176132&item_url=gprofile.php?mgroup_id=30069"}
