ALAN WEBB: PLEASE GO BACK TO SCOTT RAZCKO

Can't the brojos clear this up very quickly? If it really is Webb, then they need to put the username "Alan Webb" in a blue hyperlink fashion as they do with Canova, Cabril, etc.

It damages the credibility of these boards (don't laugh) if an impostor posing as an elite runner is allowed to carry on this long.

I don't think everyone should have to register a username, of course (that's the beauty of LRC), but someone claiming to be an elite runner should be given special consideration.

This is precisely why I think it really is AW, but believers like me might soon be proven wrong. However, I cannot believe that LR would let this go on so long. It isn't "funny" or "entertaining" if someone pretends to be AW.

I still can't believe people were thinking it was really Alan Webb on here answering questions.

Really? Are you familiar with the IQ of the LetsRun crowd?

The brojos have not contacted me or tried to verify my identity. I wish they would. Apparently, somebody ran with me yesterday and verified that I wasn't the real Alan Webb. That's pretty unbelievable to me seeing as how I ran by myself.

How can they contact a fake AW? You're posting at 4:18am West Coast time to bicker with high schoolers, you hungry lion you. Your troll attempts are getting worse by the post. Now Skuj, like in Wisco, is forced to contact his legislators to ban prank calls and troll attempts because if you put "The REAL" in front of a name, it automatically legitimizes you. Heck, they might as well use it as a form of ID at the DMV.

Wake up.

Hey Alan!

I'm guessing you are the real deal. I ran the Footsteps of Reston 10 Miler and you were working the race in '99. And we both went to George Mason.

I've always believed in you and I have a lot of confidence that you will make things work out well, regardless of the circumstances. Alberto is a smart guy and it sounds like good things are in the works.

I knew it. Know we all know.

Alan, you have a doppelganger! And he seems to be stalking you.

p.s. Can you answer one of the security questions?

What were you doing at the Reston 10-Miler? Firing the starting gun, calling out mile splits, handing out water at a water stop, or working the finish line?

Questions all day! My gosh. What the hell is wrong with you people. Oh wait, I just forgot why I don't like to come on these boards at all. Harassment all day. If you must know, I was doing none of those things at the Reston 10-miler. I was too busy being the champion that I am, winning the race and crushing the field by over 8 minutes, if I remember correctly.

Ass.

WATCH OUT ALAN!!!!! INTERPOL IS AFTER YOU!!!!

Not. You are busted.

Congratulations sir. You do a great Alan impression. One of my friends from back in high school texted me and told me to take a look at what has unfolded here. This is nuts if you ask me. But if you must, carry on and keep wasting your time. You won't get to the elite level by sitting on your ass and criticizing others.

Thanks everyone for positive comments though. Good day and happy running - Alan.

Hey everyone it really is me this time. That latenly homosexual teenager was right, you guys got pwned.

Enough. Im the real Alan Webb, and you guys need to stop it right now. Ok? Do I make myself clear?

Why is everyone using my name, which just so happens to be Allan Webb? I was alerted to this site and this thread by a friend of mine that runs a lot of 5k races in about 25-26 minutes or so. (Is that good?)

I guess my name is famous but I am not sure why. 39, 4 kids, lived in Tulsa my whole life. Currently working in the IT department here at the University of Tulsa.

GUYS IT'S REALLY ME, I PUT REAL IN FRONT OF MY NAME!!!

I hope it's Alan wrote:

Of course the answers to these questions are meaningless, but the point is that very few besides Alan would know them(except for the national record question - yes, it can easily be researched that some freshman guy from FL ran a 9:29). There is no way that Alan would not know the answers to the other two "meaningless" questions, because they are a part of his life, much like the "who was your first best friend" or "what street did you grow up on" type questions that are used for security checks.

I am not saying the answers are meaningless. I am saying the questions themselves are meaningless. Why would Alan remember any of those things from so long ago? Unless some famous celebrity hand crafted his girlfriend's orthotics, why would he remember?

Consider this: when a famous athlete comes on the message boards (or the Brojos), they give one comprehensive post to say their piece and don't return with this much repetition as The REAL Alan Webb has done here.

At one time, The REAL Alan Webb refers to his home area as "Northeast" Virginia, but everyone who lives there calls it "Northern" Virginia.

"Poster, thy name is troll."

10/10

GUYS, it's really him!

I have reason to believe he would remember. Even if he didn't, he could simply ask his father what division in the W.B. he worked for - not that big a deal. You say he doesn't owe us this, but I think a guy like him would want us to be assured that it is really him if it was questioned, and this is a way he could prove it.

By the way, I think it very unlikely that the "REAL" Alan Webb would mis-spell his own former coaches' last name multiple times, as was done by his alias on this thread(spelled Raczko, not Razcko).
