webb injured?

[doug091463]

the article on the london meet says that alan webb has pulled out due to an injury. does anyone know the extent of the injury, hopefully it does not curtail his season like last year. he is on a tear of personal best.

I hope he's ok. The 800 may have been too much. He really dug down that last 100.

It's deja vu all over again. Aghhh!!! How often have we seen some hot-shot who's "on a tear" suddenly laid low by injury or illness?

You can't fool Mother Nature.

Aw, shit! I was getting really excited about Webb's medal prospects in Osaka.

Like everyone else, I hope this isn't serious.

If true a disappointment, not a shock . . .

I guess I was implying that not all reported injuries that result in meet pullouts are really injuries, or at least serious ones. In any event, time will tell here . . .

Hopefully he has just decided to rest the jets for the next couple of weeks. He needs a good rest now before Osaka. There is very little to be gained by additional racing. As of last Saturday he is as ready as he is going to get.

I was gonna say . . . but you got there first. Sometimes that's just "plan12," for bailing on a meet that doesn't meet some other criteria for the training plan....
gracious exit.

Well, I have a report that says that Bubka can still qualify for the Ukrainian team for Osaka!

My tin foil hat is out of whack...so can someone point me towards the actual report or quote.

Is Allen Webb injured or did he just pull out of a meet?

Or now that he is the mile AR holder and a legit 800 guy, is his work on earth done and perhaps there has been an ascenson.

Im on a hunger strike until noon est.unless i find out Webb's ok. :cry:

"In the men’s 1500m, a race missing the injured Alan Webb, Bernard Lagat is looking for revenge over Andrew Baddeley after being out-sprinted by the British champion in the Sheffield rain."

Question is still, how injured, how much injured, etc.
