I agree our sport does not need more bratty competitors and you wouldn't want everyone pulling shenanigans on one another. But it does need rivalries, so what I was trying to say is in this case I'd take the rivalry and a little pettiness over what we usually get.

Instead it's 2 days out and we don't even know what event people are going to run? How is that supposed to help the sport?

There clearly is tension between the groups. Solinsky and Rupp both announced independently they were running the 10k and there seemed to be gamesmanship there. And while Rupp may have withdrawn because of allergies, Solinsky clearly thought there was something more sinister going on. In his mind, he thought they purposely faked to run the 10k, just to make Solinsky run it to try and keep the record. That is a pretty big deal if you ask me.



You are so full of sh*t. I really wish I could speak to you in person with a beer and set you straight.

I can tell you for a FACT, as a person who knows Alberto, and has met and spoken with Galen plenty... THAT none of what you suggest is true.

Alberto made the best decision for his athlete, PERIOD.

Alberto doesn't work the way you think and project he does. Galen is not the person you project that he is. (He's actually a happy, good-natured, down to earth guy, who truly enjoys running and is fearless about it.)

Alberto made the best decision for his athlete, and his athlete took his coaches advice...and that is ALL that happened.

But, that doesn't excite your voyeuristic desires to inject negativity and controversy where there is none.

Any intelligent person, who is trained in reading voice tonality, vocabulary, and reading facial expressions and micro-expressions...

Will tell you this: Solinksy was very frustrated with himself...and he used minor, tangential blame shifting to express that. Emotional immaturity, paranoia, stupidity...are as good an explanation as yours. AND it was minor and truly tangential...compared to the amount of frustration he had with himself.

There is no insinuation of anything "sinister" in his voice, vocabulary or face at all.

80% of the time human perception is projection. And in this case your low brow and desperate drama queen desires to make controversy here for the sake of self promotion of your website...is the only thing any where near sinister...

Grow the F up.
