Scott Raczko first displayed his keen insight into training design when he coached high schooler Alan Webb to a 3:53.43 prep mile record while at South Lakes High School in 2001. Raczko continued Webb’s development over the next eight year’s seeing him set personal bests of 1:43.84 for 800m, 3:30.54 for 1500m, 13:10.86 for 5k and 27:34 for 10k.
Raczko’s efforts aided Webb in winning three US 1500-meter titles and saw him break Steve Scott’s American Record in the mile with a 3:46.91.
