Re: What's Alan Webb up to?---[BLAM!} Aggghhh!
I'm not sure what he's up to in general, but I can tell that last Friday 2-Jan he was doing a workout on the Oakton HS track here in NoVA. I usually swing by there during my runs and was surprised to see two obviously gifted athletes warming up on the track. When i got closer, I realized that the guy in the Nike gear with the Michigan hat was none other than Alan. I didn't recognize his training partner. I hovered for a bit and watched them run some tempo stuff. It was pretty cool to see someone of that ability tear it up on my home turf.

Hence, the [BLAM!] gunshot and off-screen "death" scream of the poster beginning the thread.
Geeez!

Your attempt at satire by starting a new A.W. thread shows how much you actually miss the topic. You have taken a passive-aggressive (or maybe aggressive-passive)approach to expressive your interest.
Obviously there is no new pertinent information. We have a very good up-to-date account from T&FN. Alan is healthy, fit and training well. He may run one or two more XC races (including short course Nationals)before hitting the track. From the interview, he is seeminly very upbeat and positive.
