probably because webb competes on a much more higher level that goucher.
Ouch for "Much more higher". I'd say minus 6 points. There are three modifications there where only two are necessary. "More" and "Higher" are completely and utterly incorrect. Cannot be used together in any way. Please fix this for extra credit.
"probably because webb competes on a much higher level"
Get a life and stop being such a dumb f*** douchebag. I'm sure 95% of the people on the boards have had it with your stupid posts and threads. I hate you more than Brandon moen

webb OR hall siblings > goucher siblings any day of the week.
WTF? Goucher does not have a sibling that runs on the elite level. He has a wife that runs, maybe you are for incest and think that the word sibling and wife describe the same thing but I sure don't. Goucher has won more US titles than Webb or Hall, has been to the Olympics like Webb, Hall can't say that. He also won Footlocker, little Hall can say that, big Hall can't, Webb can't as well. He won NCAA titles on the track and XC, Webb can't say that, Hall can for the track only. The point is to say that Webb or Hall is far better than Goucher is ridiculous. So have you decided yet to admit that Webb had broken 4 in the mile before he ran 3:53?
Hall is a lot younger than Goucher. He will accomplish more. Goucher is at the tail end of a middling career.

My guess is that you dont know what the word sibling means and you are counting Kara Goucher as Adam's 'sibling'. If that is the case, then let me be the first to congratulate you on winning the "Most retarded LetsRun post of 2007" very early on.
oh, and Goucher and Webbs 5k prs are equal indeed, but....Webb is a miler.

He's never gone to win anything big at 1500m. I'm a fan, but he can't close in 1:48. At 5000m, he could do some damage. But at 1500m, he doesn't have the wheels.
:(

if 13:11 is middling, then only sydney maree, bob kennedy and matt tegenkamp (am I missing any others) have had careers that were better than middling.
lagat's under 13:10 too... last year in fact...
Somebody hold me up, Alan Webb has agreed to run another race that he'll either pull up hurt in the middle of or bail out before he even has that chance.
as it so happens, there aren;t any milers right now than close in 1:48 in a competitive 1500 (ie. world champs 1500 final)
