WTF Is Fernando Cabada thinking???

WTH you talking about? well Placed ? dude running 2:18 even at his level is going over board.. Love how everyone thinks he will be recovered etc...don't pull that Hudson B.S Either. besides ritz he hasn't coached Jack. and also Ritz was Ritz and had Talent, work ethic, etc...so my opinion Hudson did not and has not coached anyone to success.

BAM

I'll be rooting for Cabada and hope he makes the team for all the @ssholes in this thread.

And that's assuming that Carlsbad didn't pay him an appearance fee. They have a history of bringing in fast guys (like Wesley Korir) for the half marathon, so I'd assume they have money to spend. Which would you rather have? A guaranteed $3,000 plus a few thousand more in appearance fees, or the possibility of making the top 10 for prize money in an extremely deep race. It's unlikely that Cabada is going to make the Olympic team, so the certain money is probably a better deal.

$3K for a well placed hard training run; why not?

And those jokers don't ever get tested, with one of those two obviously on testosterone or some type of mild steroid. And there's been rumors about the other for years. USADA loves Cabada.

Chuck would kick your ***.

Wtf, why would cabada run the carlsbad marsthon 4 weeks before the trials?,but yeah praises he wants to,make the team. He ran 2:18:14 if you look at his races, this seems to alot more towards an all out effort then his so called plan 20-30 s slower then mp pace.

Does he really need the 3000 he got today? Then again he has been in mexico training, i am sure he is buying some goods while there. Otherwise why go there? Dont say to escape the snow and cold. Bullshit either...somthing does not add up. I think he,justed kissed his chance at making the team goodbye. For what? 3000 dollars. Wtf. I consider him a mexican anyways!

This seems similar to English, yet profoundly different, somehow. What is your first language?

Who has Hudson coached? I'm not saying he hasn't coached anyone good. I just can't think of anyone!

haha Wow FC is full of himself, he is acting like he just won a Gold medal in the Olympics!

This may just be the race he was peaking for, especially considering his recent post.....

WOW, he has really swung low, here....

Such hateful thinking put the focus on you, sorry.

Exactly, He is really acting as if he just did something huge. Did he get some Wacky Tea or something while in Mexico ?

i have no relation to him nor do i know much about him, but how could someone be so furious about the action of another person that does not effect you in anyway

Dathan Ritzenhein, back when he ran the Olympic marathon in 2008. Jason Hartmann, Jorge Torres... that's all I can think of off the top of my head.

I'd hold my own in the parking lot or roads. But the dude doesn't like competition and goes home when it shows up.

Why don't you come out and race then.

Hi Chuck.

I bet Cabada went out party lastnight....after this big win in Carlsbad he feels like he is,on top of the world. Which he is... well in atleast Carlsbad. Haha

Just do not get why???

Because when the dude was trying to increase his streak, he would constantly ask race directors who was running and would cancel if someone faster than him entered (I've heard this from three different race directors). And there was that interview with Justin Gillette where he said Chuck saw him on the starting line and then didn't start the race. Kind of funny that someone wants to be known as having the most marathon wins but doesn't want to be challenged. It's kind of like bragging about having a 4.0 GPA when you just take auto body and PE.

But this thread is about Cabada, who is not on TRT, so let's get back to that.

Torres made the Olympic team and ran his best under Steve Jones and Hartmann ran his best times after Hudson

He's still coached by Brad Hudson, and Hudson is heavy on his "specific endurance," which often results in many miles at race pace...and leaving your race in your workout. It wouldn't surprise me if the plan was to run a majority of that race at "goal" MP, and only back off for a few miles.

Ever hear of Tera Moody?
