On a wet, 48-degree morning at the 40th London Marathon, Sara Hall, the fastest American female marathoner in 2019, moved atop the 2020 list with a stellar performance Sunday. Hall was in eighth at the halfway mark but steadily ran her competitors down and blasted past world champion Ruth Chepngetich in the final stretch to finish second with a 15-second personal best time of 2:22:01. The 37-year old moved to sixth on the all-time U.S. performance list and became the first American, male or female, to finish on the podium in London since Dena Kastor won in 2006. Molly Seidel, the runner-up at the U.S. Olympic Team Trials - Marathon in February, ran a personal best, 2:25:13, for sixth place in her second career marathon. Lindsey Flanagan, the third American in the field, finished 17th in 2:37:16. In the men’s race, 2016 Olympian Jared Ward, the sole American in the field of 39, finished 17th with a time of 2:12:38.
