Warped and twisted, but a good week

Posted by simon on 9/4/2007 on simon's blog

Marked as it was by another stunningly mediocre performance, this time in the Pearl Street Mile, and ending with a banged-up hip, knee and ankle from an evasive fall during a night-time run, how could this qualify as a good week? But it was, in a warped and twisted way.

Expectations, expectations...

Alan Webb describes coming eighth in the 1500m world championship as "a colossal breakdown".

Huh? The race was won by new American citizen Bernard Legat (born in Kenya and a member of the famed Nandi tribe). Webb was 0.95 seconds behind !

World champion of long-term planning

Posted by simon on 8/28/2007 on simon's blog

If Alan Webb wins the metric mile at the world track championships in Osaka tomorrow, then I'm looking forward to hearing the sound of hats, if not running shoes, being eaten.
