guy looks different every time i see him.
About a minute back of A.J. Acosta, it looks like.
The way he's managed to rebuild his body, after the incredible ordeal he went through, is truly amazing.
Wonder if he'll ever be able to translate it into top-caliber running performance again, though.
I wish him the best.
Also, look who ran in PDX on Saturday, 9th place...
Wow, good to see him back

It's remarkable that he's just 32 now, 8 years after his American record, and he's been out for years, whereas Farah and Lagat never saw that as aged. It would make my year if he did the 'impossible' and came back next year to make the Olympic team from retirement.
you mean 22?
He's talking about Webb you moron.
This is now a Webb is Back Thread, 32 is correct

Only 9-seconds behind former Hansons guy Drew Polley (2:14:58 marathoner).
He was 1:38 back off the lead last week on an 8K course and this week only 58 seconds off of the lead on a 10K course. Considering that he's just been running a bit and hasn't been doing much as far as workouts go, I think that we'll see a big improvement out of Alan in 3 weeks at Club Nats (yes, he's running).

Check out 4th place... Did he have to run in yoga pants? But seriously, I didn't know Oiselle sponsored dudes.
Not only that, but he did the Davis Turkey Trot on Saturday:

(Why the Davis Turkey Trot isn't on Thanksgiving is a question for another day.)
So a 15:12 road 5k on Saturday and a 32:24 cross country 10k on Sunday. Pretty solid double.
Sounds to me like he's enjoying being normal rather the next coming of Webb.

Nicole Blood and Mel Lawrence top-10 women as well. Warms the heart to see former stars still having fun out there.
