Alan Webb speed and much improved endurance will be greatly tested as he is scheduled to take part in the 5000m race in France with WR Kenenisa Bekele in the field. His posted the fastest American debut ever at 10000m this year 27:34 (2nd on the world list in 2006) shows he have tremedous endurance. I also think he could have run 5-10 seconds faster in that debut had he been towed instead of one of the leaders.
Alan Webb's personal best is 13:10.86 (2005). How do you think Alan Webb iwill perform against Kenenisa Bekele at the Gaz de France 5000m? |

I think if Bekele is even close to top form Webb would need the mother of all sit and kick races to avoid getting dropped hard. |
