The final event of the 2009 USATF Outdoor Visa Championship Series, the USA Outdoor Championships runs from June 25-28.

Oregon Track Club member Any Yoder Begley thrilled the Hayward Field crowd in finishing third at the Olympic Trials last year, bettering the Olympic Games women’s “A” qualifying standard in the process, and she brought an even bigger roar tonight as she won her first national championship and set a Hayward Field record.
Yoder Begley and 2008 Olympic 10,000m bronze medalist Shalane Flanagan traded the lead twice in the final lap, with Yoder Begley emerging as the victor in 31 minutes, 22.69 seconds, which is the #9 U.S. women’s 10,000m time in history.
