          It’s not too often that blog posts on ET discuss endurance oriented topics but this is certainly worthy of an exception. Only one week after his American Record mile, Alan Webb today ran a 1:43.84 in the 800m taking 2 seconds off his PR and showing he’s got the speed and the race fitness to be a TRUE medal contender in the middle distances for the US.

          I'm just hoping for Osaka. Do something in Osaka and THEN we can start talking about Beijing.

          Webb apparently injured himself during this 800m run and he recently pulled out of a race. If you watch closely you can actually see where his hamstring looks like it seizes up. Hopefully, it's not too bad that it holds him out of Osaka as he appears to be a strong favorite at this point.
