Olympian Anna Hall shared her thoughts on finishing fifth at the Heptathlon event in Paris. Hall is an accomplished athlete, having won one silver and one bronze medal at the World Championships.

In an interview post the event, Hall shared her thoughs on how she performed with Athletics Weekly. She said (0:45 onwards):

"I mean there was a while there where I was worried about even making it to the Olympics, so super happy that we did and then I think, you know, as soon as I made the team, like the switch flipped and it was like "Okay how can we try to win" and obviously I think that was a very aggressive goal but I mean that was our expectation.

And so I guess I'm proud of the way I competed, disappointed in the situation, kind of like the cards that I was dealt. So I guess like heartbroken about that part, but I know that I did the best that I could."

Anna Hall suffered an injury prior to the Olympics and underwent knee surgery just before the team trials. Despite this, she made an impressive comeback and qualified for Paris 2024.
