Alan Webb HS Mile Record - Video?

[hanklaw]

Does anyone know where I can find the video of Webb at Prefontaine Classic running his 3:53 HS record? The web site KINGOFTHEMILE has been suspended and I've Googled and looked for it with no luck. I'm hoping someone happens to have on their server somewhere and it's just not well known... anyone?

Thanks, but...

I was hoping to find the race "free" of charge. Heck, I am a track coach and don't have much of an income or budget coaching track. Anyone know where I can find it free?

I believe that Ambrose Salmini taped it: [email protected]

Understand the lack of income... but this so sooo cheap, plus you get much more than the race itself.

Whose picture is on this site? Certainly isn't Webb.

Also, this thread should on the Trading Post. 8)

That's fine, but who is pictured on the site? Its not Webb. Seems to me, if its site regarding Webb, he should be pictured. I still think that the thread should be on the Trading Post. 8)

That's his coach, Scott Raczko

Lets stop living in the past. Webb has moved onto bigger and better things.

It had to be one of Webb's bigger moments. If some coach wants to use the video to inspire his troops, who are you to be the arbitrator of whether or not it is an appropriate inquiry?

Maybe, on this one Webb-inspired thread, your opinion does not matter.

Not only that, but he's wrong. Nothing Webb has done since then has had the impact of his race at Pre as a high schooler. Yes, he's gone faster and moved up to world class (if not medal class). But breaking Ryun's HS record was a tremendous achievement that inspired a crowd reaction and media publicity that were justifiably greater than what has ensued from any of his subsequent races to date.

I don't know how much any post really matters. I just post stuff when I am bored. On the international stage Webb's 3:48 mile and 13:10 5000 are his biggest accomplishments.

Nobody could have predicted the wild turn of events that were instore for Webb after his high school record. The two years after this historic race Webb went through a nightmare. Nobody thought he would rebound, not even Steve Scott.

Webb and Lagat will transform US 1500 meter running. In fact because of these two the 1500 is now America's best distance event.
Before these guys came along it was just one long nightmare after Pyrah made the Olympics 1500 meter finals in 2000.
