#117	Sam Murray June 23, 2008 at 3:38pm wow, that was awesome. The last 100 was a little ugly, but I guess I shouldn't talk since he beats my pr by about 32 seconds. I wonder why he's so inconsistent though? reply
#116	Flotrack Fan June 16, 2008 at 11:53pm "I got a little excited there" lol reply
#115	Comon' June 15, 2008 at 6:42am i wish webb could do that when it counts! reply
#114	Anon May 26, 2008 at 8:01pm "Got something to say to the Americans back home?" Alan: "Dreams come true, man." reply

#111	Ceja October 11, 2007 at 8:45pm thats some bad ass s**t..!!! reply
#110	Anonymous Coward October 8, 2007 at 6:27am SCARBROUGH...57 in the 400?...that makes her a sprinter which means she wouldn't be giving alan webb advice, shut ya mouth. reply
#109	Hamilton, Jason October 7, 2007 at 11:23am Your are really good and i am a huge fan, but i hate to break it to you but i am goin to have that record one day along with the 5000. reply
#108	Anonymous Coward August 22, 2007 at 10:15pm Let's keep the comments clean. There is no need for all the bleeped out words on this site. Alan Webb is a great runner and that is all that needs to be said. reply
#107	SCARBROUGH August 20, 2007 at 8:45am I don't care if the guy CRAWLS, SKIPS, or does the damn CRAB WALK on his last quarter... the beast just set a new record. My little sister ran a 57 as a freshman...i guess that maked her qualified to give A.Webb advice eh? reply
#106	Anonymous Coward August 18, 2007 at 8:49pm that's not that fast... reply
#105	Emanuel August 15, 2007 at 5:00am Alan is a world class runner, and a quality person. When we comment on him, let others see in you, what they see in Alan. Enough of the empty words that defile and hurt good people. Let those that have ears hear. If you respond to this comment in a negative way- you don't hear me. reply
#104	Paul August 14, 2007 at 8:11pm Kaelin- Thats sounds like advice from an expert!!! What do you coach middle school track? All coaches say tuck your chin and drive your legs, thats kind of the correct way to run. You must be a born hater, dont hate on his running style unless you can equal it. Ha, he is probably faster than you in the 1/4 and your giving advice! hahaa reply
#103	Tina Ure August 13, 2007 at 5:46pm I'd love to see this video, but can't get anything to play. Can anyone help? (I get the stopwatch thing, but no video). Thanks. reply
#102	Spectator August 13, 2007 at 12:25am webb kicks butt! reply
#101	Trackman August 9, 2007 at 3:10pm Thank you, Flocast, for covering the European meets; quality camera work!!! reply
#100	Anonymous Coward August 9, 2007 at 1:16pm THANK YOU AND AMEN TO THAT>>>>>>>>>>>>>.......seriously....!!!!!!!! reply
#99	Anonymous Coward August 9, 2007 at 10:51am Yeah why would you try to teach Webb form? I mean its not like he needs your awesome former quarter miler coaching, you must know a ton. Seriously, keep your advice to yourself... it's not needed here. reply
#98	Aaron Junta August 8, 2007 at 6:30pm IM SO GLAD YOU GUYS ARE DOING THIS!!! reply
#97	Kaelin August 6, 2007 at 3:41am Great run, definitely had more left with fast recovery at the end. As a former quarter miler, suggest keeping your arms tucked in, drive and lift for speed. reply
#96	Anonymous Coward July 31, 2007 at 5:42pm Wow!!!!! That was amazing he was moving!!!!!!! reply
#95	Anonymous Coward July 28, 2007 at 2:45pm AW just went 1:43.84 to win in the 800 at Hesden Zolder! The man is ready!! reply
#94	Andrew Hunt July 28, 2007 at 4:32am Congrats Allen, Flotrack nice job on the web site ill keep up...thanks again. reply

#89	Frank Locascio July 25, 2007 at 4:39pm i got nervous watching it,, reply
#88	Doghouse Riley July 24, 2007 at 11:44pm Wow! Watch this loop several times a day for running inspiration. A-Webb's race was great, but Deena (sp?) makes my socks roll up and down! What a sweeetheart! I adore Deena! reply
#87	Ian Simmons July 24, 2007 at 10:20pm Is there any argument that the Four Hoursemen of American Long Distence running are the late, great Steve Prefontaine, Dave Wattle, Steve Scott, and Alan Webb...? reply
#86	Dana Breeden July 24, 2007 at 12:42pm first - trackfan post a link to this article cuz i wanna see what you're talkin about with my own eyes. secondly - whoever lol is. that drug is a dirty word for the factor it's what makes our sport so overly criticized. everytime someone comes along and does well they must be on it and everyone just tears them down whether or not they get caught. I'm glad it's censored, though its kind of annoying when it blocks out r***rt due to the e-p-o being in that order haha. reply
#85	Dana Breeden July 23, 2007 at 10:29pm alf... iddno whether you're bein sarcastic or not but hey... atleast i didn't just write "f1rst" or try and make some stupid comment about this *** bull$hit people wanna talk about... but in case you really do luv people like me... thanks! :) reply
#84	J July 23, 2007 at 9:50pm Flotrack, can u please coverage cross country this year. Keep running alive the whole year. I really want to b able 2 show ppl my cross country speed this year on the web and shine like a star so i can get recruited reply
#83	Trackfan July 23, 2007 at 8:03pm For all those commenting about *, the ONLY place I have heard any comments or rumors about Webb being on * is on this board. Where is this crap coming from and why is it "suspect" that he's running well now? After all he ran a 3:53 mile in high school and a 3:32 1500 in 2005, so based on that alone I would fully expect he would be running the times he is right now. I don't see anything suspect about it at all. Give it a rest.....until proven otherwise. reply
#82	Anonymous Coward July 23, 2007 at 7:36pm wow. great coverage. great commentary. keep it up--flocasts and allen! reply
#81	Leo July 23, 2007 at 7:19pm In a simple track meet with no fanfare, lights and almost empty stands an American runner dares to go where the very few and almost none has ever gone before and now he is among the 10 fastest milers in history. I have to admit that I was moved as I witnessed this broadcast by Flocast. It has been a privilage to be part (as an spectator) of this moment and the confirmation that there are many other American hopefuls who can also step up. My congratulation to Allen and to all of those (unseen) who have assisted him in his realization. reply
#80	Runner247 July 23, 2007 at 6:53pm WOW reply
#79	Steve Scott July 23, 2007 at 6:15pm Prick... You better watch your back reply
#78	David Hickerson July 23, 2007 at 4:41pm Scott didnt have 2 rabbits but hell of a job kickin it in alone that 4th lap reply
#77	Jon Colletti July 23, 2007 at 4:07pm Future 2008 World Champ! reply
#76	Ssg Axeoffreedom July 23, 2007 at 3:14pm oh... my... GOD!!! And then he says in the interview that he can go faster!! I can't wait to see that!! reply
#75	Adam July 23, 2007 at 2:39pm He so deserved it. Alan Webb is my hero. reply
#74	Stover July 23, 2007 at 1:26pm Great race. Congrats Webb, and thank you Flotrack!. I love the content of flotrack. Seeing athletes through more candid interviews (than ESPN), where you actually can see/hear someone's personality makes me more of a fan of our distance elite, and will cheer even louder at Worlds. reply
#73	Anonymous Coward July 23, 2007 at 12:35pm it is carzy though all year he is in the US(states)and did nothing and now he is overseas, he start dropping PR's with in a matter of weeks. reply
#72	Anonymous Coward July 23, 2007 at 9:23am What a fantastic perfomance! It is nice to see Alan finally fulfilling his potential. reply
#71	Alf July 23, 2007 at 2:43am Thank you alan, and you too bombsaway120, we luv people like you... reply

#63	Runsaul July 22, 2007 at 4:51pm FLOTRACK has given the American public what Big Media such as ESPN, NBC, ABC and all those others could not and that is true honest coverage of trak and field in the states. That You soo much FLOTRACK. YOU ROCK! reply

#61	Bart VanAalst July 22, 2007 at 1:53pm Yeah guys, I was there (remember the American Waffle King, Mark?). What was most impressive was the fact that Webb ran the latter part of the race on his own (check out the Dream mile video - Scott was racing his competitors). Other was that the meet hadn't got a real good atmosphere. The small crowd was loud (mostly athletes), but next week in Heusden the stadium will be packed with 'ordinary' fans who really cheer on the athletes. Those race will be even beter. (check out the results at http://www.atletiekvlaanderen.be => these are GP results) reply
#60	Kichoge July 22, 2007 at 1:34pm Which one's Webb? reply
#59	Coacht27 July 22, 2007 at 1:25pm Finally, an American miler who shows some pure speed development. reply

#57	Biff Minion July 22, 2007 at 12:35pm dre357 you could not have said it better. Same with ryan hall record. I love Alans style of running, like a little kid running after the bully that took his candy bar. reply

#54	Tyson Waddsworth July 22, 2007 at 12:14pm This is bull allen. Noah ran 3.43 at 20. You can do better. reply
#53	David Nardi July 22, 2007 at 10:43am what a thrill .. Thanks so much for covering it !!! reply
#52	Jeff July 22, 2007 at 9:27am Where are all the Alan Webb boo-birds who wrote him off last year? As a fellow Virginia high school runner, I couldn't be more pleased. reply
#51	John Mulhern July 22, 2007 at 8:50am What a great year Alan is having. Congratulation to him and his coach. reply

#45	Leo July 22, 2007 at 1:51am Thank you for the opportunity to watch such an incredible event! Without your service, so many of these great runs would go by only having been seen by the few that were present. reply
#44	Dre357 July 22, 2007 at 1:22am let paris hilton run a red light and it just so happens every camera in the world catches it live but Alan Webb anounces almost a week b4 his attempt that he was going after the American Record and you hear nothing of it in the United States besides track and field websites. IM PROUD OF ALAN THE GREAT reply
#43	Trackfan July 21, 2007 at 10:26pm fred, You've got to let the video download first, then play it again and you'll get a full recording without any interuption. reply

#31	Paul July 21, 2007 at 6:35pm Thank you Mark. I don't think we would ever have seen this without Flotrack. reply
#30	Justin July 21, 2007 at 6:24pm though you might want to offer a lower quality one for slower connections ;] reply
#29	JK July 21, 2007 at 6:24pm Nice work Mark, love the extra voices to help out. The on track camera was a great new feel, even in the end with your excitement you stayed on track and delivered great commentary. Great vid for a historical race. reply

#27	Mark July 21, 2007 at 6:00pm "Why is so jumpy and slow?" He is jumping to warm up his muscles (a sprinter's technique). He is slow because he is attempt to conserve his energy. Awesome history in the making. Hopefully more to be made in Japan and the Olympics. reply
