If Farah runs sub 2:06 in London, what will that say about Salazar?

Salazar is likely the one who agreed to let Hasay drop Boston. She is ready to run well, and she realized Boston was not the place because of the weather. Hasay will likely target another marathon to run very soon. Maybe London.

Salazar likler told Rupp to stop at mile 19. Rupp will not recover and run another marathon for a month. If no other marathon is run as a make up for Boston within a few months then the next will not be until Chicago, or New York.

I don't see Salazar letting Rupp run a marathon outside of the US. I do see him being okay with Hasay doing that.

Rupp should have stopped at 10-13 miles if he knew it was not his day, then he could have run London this weekend.

2016 Olympic Trials, 1st, 2:11:13

2016 Olympics, 3rd, 2:10:05

2017 Boston, 2nd, 2:09:58

2017 Chicago, 1st, 2:09:20

2018 Boston, DNF

If that's a lack of consistency, Eliud Kipchoge is the only consistent marathoner alive

If your not in shape on Monday, your probably not going to be in shape 5 days later either.

Salazar turned a mid-late career also-ran, into an unbeatable force with range from 3:28 to 59:22. If that's not some of the best coaching in the history of the sport, I don't know how to make you happy.

Maybe Farah just isn't a great marathoner.

Maybe Rupp likes collecting huge paychecks in domestic races rather than chasing a time in Berlin. Furthermore, we all know that once finally drops the 2:04 he's capable of, the dope flames will only be further fanned.

Salazar is great. Mo is the GOAT. And Galen is the greatest American distance runner in several generations. Get over it.

" Salazar turned a mid-late career also-ran, into an unbeatable force with range from 3:28 to 59:22. If that's not some of the best coaching in the history of the sport, I don't know how to make you happy. "

Yah Salazar was definitely not who turned an "mid-late career also ran" into an "unbeatable force". That's the work of drugs coming from Aden and possibly Salazar.

Yeah, the whole Aden connection ruins it for me. Bums me out.
