LOL! I love that a Kardashian ran cross country. Too bad they weren't filming the show back then.
Looks like they've always had their attitudes then.
if you mean attitudes like spoiled, entitled, selfish, self-absorbed, then yes for sure...

it was division 5 which is the weakest. It's all the tiny private schools.
The Kardashians are definitely spoiled and over compensated but I don't buy into the vitriol that most people direct at them. They're purely business people. It's your choice to be offended by them. To be quite frank I'm less outraged by their wealth than any of those investment banker crooks.
The Kardashians are the Bravest Family In American History.
Such courage.
hahaha private schools
ah yah, yah know, ah yah, like a, yah know....
The CA state meet has been in one of two places for the last 40 years or so....Mt. Sac or Woodward Park. Neither of those courses are easy. Woodward, I think, in most peoples opinion is the easier of the two. I've run both, ran better at Woodward than Mt. Sac. I think a 17:16 at Woodward is good for about 16-low on the track. So, as much as I dislike the Kardashians, that's not a horrible time....it's not a great time or even a good time but It's not horrible.

Uh, no. Not even close.
Mt. SAC's 5k course is MUCH more difficult than Woodward Park. The 2.93 mile course is more similar timewise (only about 15-20 seconds), but that's also obviously a bit shorter (about 6% shorter but only about 1.5% faster).
A 17:16 at Woodward is probably on par with a 16:50-16:55 or so on the track. 16:45 at the fastest, and that is stretching it unless it was unusually hot that year.
I found a couple more results. 16:52 at Mt Sac and 15:33 on a 2.8mi course.
what a liar, those results don't say he or his team was disqualified.

The California State Meet has only ever been at one location: Woodward Park in Fresno. It's a rolling course, but easier than Mt. Sac. Mt.Sac however is only 2.93 miles, whereas Woodward Park is 3.1 miles.
Also Division 5, while harboring the smallest schools in the state, is no longer a weak division. It was quite weak back in Kardashian's day, but things have changed drastically over the last few years.

Thats actually not that bad, he was a decent runner.
Why did he make up that story ? Decent runner but he seems like the boring kid in the family and all the tattoo's in the world won't make him interesting.
That was my thought, too. Sounds like total BS. Some a-hole bragging about being all crazy and unpredictable. Like a runner who says he came back from a training run so late because a chick lured him into a van to have sex.*

Click the races pulldown and select Men's Division V. The dude was 32nd (not top 20) and it seems like his team wasn't disqualified. Also, it doesn't look like it's that hard to qualify for the race.

If 17:16 on a difficult course is simply not horrible, then I must have been a scrub.

It was pouring down rain that year. Since I've been coaching only 2001 and 2004 have been rainy years. 2004 was a deluge. I'm not sure if I remember what time the rain started and if it rained on the D5 race, but the course was soup for our race (d4).
It is quite hard to qualify for state. In our section, there are approximately 40 schools per division and only 2 advance to state. Southern section gets more teams to state based on the section toughness qualifying formula. They may have sent 7 of the 10 teams from their section finals, but there are 2 elimination rounds before section finals in the southern section.

How did he get so fat if he once had that ability? Are you sure this wasn't another rob kardashian? Maybe youth explains it? Or being less spoilt?
