Letsrun.com is now in the process of DEATH.
The process is going to be very slow and painful.
Enjoy the ride.
This is the new entitled American standard. Instead of debate we avoid people who criticize us and we call them liars or worse. It’s pretty sad. Our President got elected on this ideal and it’s only getting worse. It’s almost the definition of an entitled person to completely wax over criticism and insult the critics.
Not sure why a large number of professional runners / training groups choose to bash or ignore the only group of people that are remotely interested in their performance. Come on, how many people that don't visit LRC actually give a flying fvck about some sub elites in Michigan? Just seems like bad PR to me.

When will people learn? This phony positive mindset nonsense is the path to the triumph of negativity and destruction. It’s fake positivity with no true value. This retreat into the echo chambers is freeloading, plain and simple. Has anyone here heard of The Commons Problem? This is the central paradigm for understanding the chief problems of their age and why these problems are not getting attention, coverage, money, hearts, minds and work. This is the central paradigm for understanding how society is going to implode. All societies. Quit freeloading and share in some of the work, the burden of the public good. I’m tired of this cowardly, weak running era, full of fantastic times but complete laziness in other regards. Utter selfishness, in social relations, popularity, promiscuous sex, dating, family starting, jobs. They call themselves successful and they think the checklist is complete whereas they haven’t even gotten started on any moral or public works, works upon which their own selfish interests and hobbies actually depend. Cowardice. Every famous runner and coach in this mold is no leader, no role model at all. False worship.
How many social scientists, economists, poly sci people, etc? On these boards, and in the running community? No talk of commons problems at all. Are these people awake? Or was school, knowledge, professional life, is it all just a game. Get the grades, get the pay, pad the resume and call it a night and call it a life. Uselessness!
Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?
Is Sondre Nordstad Moen the fastest non african right now? 12/30/2017 5:41PM
Seriously I don't get why more people didn't talk about his 2:05:48 at Fukuoka, that has to be the fastest time of any white person in history (other than 20 mph tailwind year at Boston)

Why is an individual tweeting from a corporate account and expressing an individual opinion?
Totally ironic, too, Facebook twitter Instagram and Strava are full of bs. These hypocrite liars compromise with scoundrels on their friends lists, willfully ignore evil and douchebaggery in their midst and in their daily lives and are addicted to their worthless echo chambers of platitudes and cliches. Liberal news is full of bs too, shoddy journalistic bs. The journalism leagues and schools so arrogant, like other professional tracks and institutions, with their supposed vetting, standards, curriculum vitae, and then we get to the contemporary internet publishing age full of the shoddiest journalistic standards. I won’t take this guy or anyone else seriously when they throw shade at a few but not the whole.
Dear me, are you ever butthurt. Take some advil, sweetheart.
One more point: the boards in their FULL variety—all hours of the day, days of the week, seasons, years and years—are a very good and full representation of much of our society and certainly the entire running community as well as the walks of life THE CRITICS encounter in their own lives. It is sheer ignorance and hypocrisy to scapegoat the Lrc message board while accepting these same elements and array of people elsewhere.
Hansons are Hillary lovers! That’s hilarious!!!!
How’s that Russian collusion working out for you, you Michigan Democrat pieces of trash?
Hahahahahahaha!!!!
Hansons loses yet again!!!!!!!!!
"It's always a lot of fun when you win. If you work hard and lose, that’s not acceptable," Prez. #45
I respect what the Hansons Running group has tried to do to improve American distance running, but unfortunately success in running is measured by who gets to the line first.
Participation medals don't count to real competitors. Ask Bekele!
M.A.G.A.
Letsrun is going the way of the NFL. Completely irrelevant.

Are you done?
He'll be back in two weeks
I hope that the irony of posting this from twitter isn't lost on Hansons.
I know the high-level theory of the Hanson plan and was considering buying the book and giving it a go for my fall marathon, but now i'm. Complain about the president, fine. Complain about sports talk, fine - especially since my boys Craggie and Mike are gone. But HOW DARE THEY DISS LR!
Third tier running club trying to stay relevant by stirring up a little controversy with the BROJOS . the BROJOS should form a Letsrun racing team and knock the Hansons into the oblivion of hobbyjogger status.

Where do these so-called "gold nuggets" reside?
Craig Virgin just gave out lots of advice over the past few days in a thread about hill training... Just one example.

Uh I don’t know how about all the good work outting race and charity runner cheats?
Also, you know the ? right, but do you know how to pronounce his name? Yep, solved that, too.
Links to world record footage that had long been unavailable? Yep, that, too.
I could go on and on for days, but the bills don’t sleep and I don’t get paid for being LEGIT, like deez boards, dawg.

So Kevin Hanson and Island both leave letsrun at the same time...coincidence?
