I can't believe that Webb is starting this trend over again of running odd distances so early. He has done this before, and when the major championships start he runs like shit. My philosophy is that you only have so many races left in your legs so run them sparingly. Lagat or any of the top milers in the world for that matter, are racing this early.
Lagat has been racing all winter!!!
didn't hesch say in the letsrun interview that going after davis' time was out the window in light of new york? oh thats right, you guys just like to selectively quote, i forgot this is letsrun.com.

Since when is Hesch one to be talking about ARs in the first place?
WR in 12.57 by Webb
After Hesch\'s 13:43 5k run at 8000 ft altitude into that stiff wind near Entoto, he should be ready for a flat, California, super-stacked, out and back 13:23 to break the AR. Right?
all webb needs to do is go out and run 13:30. evaluate his strength and move on. i doubt he runs faster than his 13:10 pr, but if he did that would be really encouraging. i bet he runs somewhere between 13:25-13:30.
Doesn't matter what he does.. If he doesn't win or set an american record everyone on here will talk shit about him saying he is being stupid for not doing his proper training. He is what 24 years old maybe 25.. He is no where near his prime.. Good Luck Webb
Oh and to clarify the last time he did over distance races for him he got sick, its not that he ran like shit. its that he was sick you morons
yeah, seriously people need to stop bashing Webb. He's out there doing his thing, getting prepared for 8.8.8.
He's allowed to run whatever race he damn well feels like running.
Good Luck Webb!! I'm cheering for you
