How would training at medium altitude and then competing at higher altitude affect a runners performance?

Hi Justin,
if a runner were suddenly competing at a higher altitude than the one the runner had been training at, then the performance would be lower. See the attached article on high altitude and athletic performance which will make this quite clear http://www.rice.edu/~jenky/sports/altitude.html.
