I take the quote as meaning "practicing a rapid, wide vibrato gives you the same vocal agility that is useful in fast runs," not actually meaning you should switch it on during a run. (After all, get the vibrato wide enough and it's just a trill! I think of Prince—that sound that starts a long note straight and then switches on a vib so wide it's basically a trill.)
Apr 19 at 12:57 comment added Andy Bonner One thing to think about: different genres can approach vibrato differently. The "bel canto" tradition of opera has vibrato sort of "on all the time, by default." Earlier baroque practice treated it as an ornament, like a trill or a "riff/run", that could be added to a note. Many modern genres including gospel, R & B, musical theatre and various shades of pop, take various approaches in between. I'd suggest that for your purposes you think of it in the baroque way, as an ornament, "off by default."
