anyone know when this will air?
I saw that Kara G tweeted this. Watched the trailer and it looks good. Alan looks happy. I'm guessing it will air after this weekend once AW finishes his career. Wonder if he'll be a good triathlete.
I saw Sanya tweeted this too. Looks like a quality edit. I'm interested to see what they dig up. I say he doesn't get sub 4.
webb runs 3:57 and leaves you all wagging your tongues :)
Alan will take time away from the track to focus on running....K
Alan will enjoy new challenges of swimming and biking and get super fit...K
Then Alan will decide to jump on the track on a summer night in june no pressure and run exactly 3:53 again.
Alan will make a comeback after seeking new challenges to get fit and then returning to running.
"In a running world gone mad....only one man could get it done"
I think Webb is a different guy. He looks mellow in that video. Like he has new things like a wife and child that takes his focus. He still gets in a workout but is it enough to stay competitive and does he care?
I liked the cliffhanger - tune into NBC or come to the armory. Ha!
I've already got the title for the sequel.
His retirement is great for the sport. He's like an on-again, off-again girlfriend and when he's completely gone from the sport we can just appreciate what he did in his prime and stop hoping he turns back into the Webb we knew. That being said, I don't see him running a smart enough race to do well. He's going to be too emotional and amped up to run a truly great race.
With him gone, I'll have to change my name.

I'm glad i'm not the only one who is hoping this somehow happens
no point in him continuing to focus on running, we know he's done (on an elite level)
now we'll see what he can do in triathlon, and I hope he excels
I get a little choked up watching that. Pulling for the guy but I also think he's going to be too emotional and blow up and run 4:04-4:06.
Also, did everyone else see the Letsrun singlet make an appearance in the trailer!

Yes, about 13 years ago when it was on the cover of T&F News.
I noticed he kept saying "retiring from the track" and not retiring from running. I know he's doing tris, but it sounded like he was leaving the door open for road racing. Is Webb going to run a marathon???

March 2001. I read that issue too. No need to be a dick.

No need to be so sensitive, I don't think he was being a dick.
Where is that Track he's running on at the end, it's in the woods.
