Subject: RE: Is Webb racing too much?

whaaaaaaaat wrote:

pro's to Webb racing a lot:
1. He can get the Olympic A qualifier.
2. He gets positive feedback by seeing his times drop, thereby improving his confidence.
3. He gets back into a racing mindset after years of barely racing.
4. He gets practice running in a pack, competing for the win. Working on what people commonly say is his weak spot: tactics.
5. We get to observe the comeback of Alan Webb week by week. Plus his coach gets to see his fitness level in real race times rather than assumptions based on training.
6. He can practice doubling, preparing for the rounds of championships.


Con's to Webb racing a lot:
1. Someone makes a thread on letsrun questioning the value of the above 6 things.


I don't think he's racing too much but just for the sake of argument..

Cons:
1)Travelling around the country to meets.
2)Training disrupted.
3)Increased risk of injury.
