Reading how Suguro Osako raced in some lowkey half marathon in Washington this weekend while Rupp raced in Europe, it struck me how different their buildups seem to be at times. I started to realize I have a lot of questions about Rupp and the NOP.
1) Does Rupp train alone or does he ever do workouts with Osako?
2) Does Rupp do anything at altitude anymore? Either by flying there or with an altitude tent as his home? Altitude seems to be such a big deal for everyone now but I never hear about Rupp being at altitude.
3) What's Rupp's relationship with Mo Farah actually like?

PS. If you are reading this thread, you are likely interested in the NOP. Not many people seem to realize that Salazar gave an interesting interview over the weekend. He shared his thoughts on Rupp's race and talks about how he thinks Sifan Hassan will be a 5k/10k runner.
