I'd like get close to the British record," said Farah after being given a special half-medal from the race organisers following his 13 miles on Sunday. "My training partner [Galen Rupp] has run 2:07 and he is doing similar things to what I'm doing.
Stupid reporter should do his homework. Ritzenhein, presumably?
Yeah, I imagine that the reporter just assumed Rupp when Mo mentioned his partner. Rupp actually seemed to get a lot of media attention in the British press as "Mo's partner" after the Olympic 10k.
I doubt that Rupp has run any marathon time trials in practice.
How is this even a question? Of course it's Ritzenhein.
farah apparently had a freudian slip.

What? He never said Rupp. He said his training partner (which would be Ritz).

Just stupid enough to take up space and add nothing. Stupid is as stupid does.
Rupp could tempo 2:07 so I don't see why this should be so unexpected.

No, Rupp would struggle to run 2:07 all out in a race.
rupp is unbeatable in the US...at any distance. i wouldn't be surprised if he would give symmonds and solomon and run for their money in the 800. and i'm dead serious.
sal and rupp are a dynamic duo that all other elite runners wish they had.
i guarantee rupp would blast a killer marathon.

Rupp could NEVER break 1:46 even if his life depended on it.

you do realize he essentially soloed a 350 mile indoors, right? you do realize he is being trained like sprinter, right?
143/144 is def not out of the question.

It is out of the question for those of us with any intelligence whatsoever. I say this with the utmost respect: You are truly stupid, but maybe a good person, however unfortunately stupid.
Love Rupp, but no way he runs 1:44 lol

Agreed on all counts.
No chance for Rupp against Symmonds or Solomon at 800.
No chance for Rupp against Centro or Leo at 1500.
Rupp/Lagat/Lomong is a tough call right now.
Rupp owns the 10,000.
Rupp could own the marathon IF he went for it (and assuming Hall does not regain his form)
A bit different than "unbeatable...at any distance."
With 6 weeks of training Rupp could easily run sub 1:44 and be in the mix in any 800m championship. Sorry haters, he really is THAT good.

Rupp is a 26:48 10,000m runner. Nobody has ever run under 26:50 and under 1:46. How the hell is Galen Rupp going to be such an exception?
1:46 for a marathon is just too fast, I don't think it's possible. Not until some one breaks 2 hours first.

Your whole post is void just by how poorly thought out it is.
Rupp would have crushed Centro indoors head to head that's pretty much a fact proven by Centro's races and Rupp's races. To say someone who went 3:50.92 indoors in his only serious attempt has no chance against Centro and Leo (are you kidding?) is kind of insane. Leo just lost to Cory Leslie by 2 full seconds. You really want to stand by that statement? To have no chance, Rupp would have to be worse than Leo/Centro on his best day compared to their worst day, and nobody who follows the sport would believe that.
