Caitlyn Jenner Says Bruce Ran 70 Mile Weeks

Caitlyn is an odd transgender. Wants to be with women as a woman. Isn't getting ride of his tool. Maybe s-he's a lesbian transvestite. Maybe more will be revealed in her upcoming reality TV show,

...or maybe the world has lost its mind?

(S)he sounds like the old Bruce when he was brow beaten all day from his ex wife on their reality show.....

Caitlyn no doubt has done arguably more for transgender people than anyone else in the world

That's an Ivy League sentence if I've ever read one.

Difficult to believe. Veeeery difficult, especially if the implication is that this was done consistently, even if Jenner was highly "enhanced".

About 32 years ago I read an interview with Daley Thompson--perhaps in Runner's World--which did not suck at the time--and the writer asked Thompson if he was worried that his chief rival, Jürgen Hingsen, might be sneaking off for 10-mile runs in the middle of the night when Thompson--was resting. Thompson replied that no, he wasn't, and that if Hingsen were to do such a thing, it would lower his point totals in 9 of the 10 events so much that it wouldn't matter how much he might gain in the 1500. Seemed reasonable then, seems reasonable now. The 1500 is the ONLY endurance-oriented event in the decathlon. Everything else is strength/speed/power--shot put, long jump, high jump, sprints, high hurdles, etc.

Jürgen. Sorry, Jürgen ;)

Reading the Brojos' writing does take a little luster off the whole "Ivy League education" thing.

Could it have helped if he had, say, run off to do long intervals? Say, 800/1000m type? Rather than jogging an 8 mile run.

He's a history major, just ask Justin Gatlin. But don't ask Paula, Bernie, Bob, Evan or Ben. Certainly don't ask about which conditions he took medicines for during his own career.

17 miles per week. Not 70. She was very nervous last night.

If Bruce took enough enhancement he could run all day without reducing strength/power. Or he could be misremembering a handful of 10mile runs in his career for a lot of 70 weeks. Or a handful of 70 mile weeks for a lot of them.

I'm going to let you totally sidetrack the thread because I am so strong on anti-doping.

I think you are saying we ask drug questions to Justin Gatlin and Nike Oregon Project athletes but don't ask other athletes about what they take: Paula (Radcliffe), Bernie (Lagat), Bob (Kennedy I assume? I 'm not sure, I haven't seen Bob Kennedy in 5 years), Evan (Jager) and Ben (Blankenship). And also that I won't discuss what medicines I took during my career.

Even if I never asked anyone else a supplement question it is perfectly reasonable to ask Justin Gatlin and the Nike Oregon Project athletes drug questions. Justin Gatlin received a 4 year drug suspension. He has never come clean on what he did. The Nike Oregon Project is under investigation by USADA and questionable practices were pointed out by the BBC and ProPublica. Those who have flunked drug tests in the pasts or are in groups under investigation merit more questions. So it does not matter whether I ask Ben Blankenship about supplement usage, it is still a legitimate question to ask Galen Rupp. No one has come out with allegations of possible abuse of the TUE system by Ben's group.

People attack the messenger when they don't like the message. The questions are perfectly legitimate.

However, I am an equal offender when it comes to drug questions. Did you get upset when I asked Carmelita Jeter about Mark Block? Should I have asked an athlete who didn't work with Mark Block about Mark Block? No.

****

However, the funny thing is I have asked many of the athletes above drug/supplement questions.

Right here: Evan Jager Discusses His Supplement Usage and People Who Say He Must Be Doping

I asked Ben Blankenship as part of a group thing with OTC athletes a week before USAs what supplements they take.

I asked Bernard Lagat about his "A" sample positive:

James Li, Lagat's coach claims we are the ones who told him of Lagat's positive test, as when we called him he said he did not know of it.

We have pointed out Bob Kennedy was on thyroid medication and Paula Radcliffe took asthma medication.

I have already answered on the forums when I was in Flagstaff trying to make the Olympics I took liquid iron. I took a multivitamin from time to time. I am in the NY Times for being an advocate of caffeine before races ( a double espresso). I did not take thyroid medication. I think I took claritin or one of those over the counter allergy pills in 2003 or 2004. If I got sick I may have taken an antibiotic. That's it. I drove in my car to higher altitude to sleep in the back before big races. I did high-low training. I did both those things because I thought they'd help me compete better.

I have posted on here I saw one time Dr. Anthony Galea, the doctor who Tiger Woods and a ton of others saw and who was later arrested for bringing HGH across the border. Chris Whetstine worked on me in Phoenix one time.

I have nothing to hide. Keep asking away.

The problem you have is when I ask an athlete you like drug questions, now when I ask 10 other athletes drug questions.

Many OTC allergy drugs (Including Claritin D) contain pseudoephedrine - of which WADA states:

•Pseudoephedrine is an ingredient in many cold and flu medications. WADA advises athletes to discontinue taking pseudoephedrine at a dose of less than 240mg per day AT LEAST 24 hours prior to the time defined as “in-competition.” Be advised, in some cases this may not be enough time for the medication to clear the body, such as a slow-metabolizer or because of drug interactions. USADA recommends avoiding pseudoephedrine-containing cold and flu products for several days in advance of competition, and using a non-prohibited alternative instead.

I don't have a problem with you asking 10 athletes about their supplements - the problem is that you pretend like certain runners are clean and will hang on to any innuendo and rumor regarding people you don't like. Also, what's the difference between Jager saying he believes in a clean sport and Rupp saying the same thing? And I was partially defending your awful English by pointing out that you were a History major.

If we expose the lie, are you then going to delete this thread and any comment that ever mentions it like you've done with lies LRC has uncovered in the past?

We've got the video set to start at the most controversial part of the speech from an LRC perspective the part where Caitlyn says Bruce "didn't run 70 mile weeks for years leading up to the games to jog the 1500."

Did Jenner really run 70 mile weeks?

Really, you have no idea what he is referring to? Almost every day there is a "why did my post about xxxxxx get deleted" thread. Some of those threads of course are obvious troll/intentionally inflammatory threads. However, others are things like "UC Davis Coach xxxx is sleeping with star athlete xxxxx, discus." That was a real thread (paraphrased and names removed) that was deleted. In that particular case, that coach has since quit under pressure and married that athlete. This would be a "lie/truth" that was exposed publicly on LRC first, but you chose to delete the thread and all future threads about that topic. In that case, the coach was violating the rules of the sport (NCAA rules), which in my mind would make it an appropriate topic of discussion.

Not to rag on you, but it does seem pretty clear what they were referring to.

That is no doubt arguably true.

Heshe did not.
