There's no reason not to be out competing wherever you can, but that just wasn't a winner's venue. Nobody there is going to be running in the Olympics, or the Diamond League, probably ever.


It was a workout bro. You save the fast running for big meets and the workouts for little meets.

It's why Webb did that 3000m last year with college people instead of doing the 2 mile in NYC when Lagat got the record. He had planned on doing the 2 mile there but then when he was injured and sick he realized he wasn't in the shape he wanted to be so he did the 3000m with college people instead because that was a race where the winning time would be slower and he could "race" with slower people instead of being left in the dust by someone faster when he isn't in good shape

When Webb is in better shape, he'll race with better people
