Teddy,
Everyone can always tell it is you writing. Your style(and subject matter) is so predictable and rambling. Even I knew it was you! I was actually wondering how long it would take for you to chime in with your usual dribble. You really need to start bringing your A-game to these discussions, you get beat like a drum all the time now-that is not the Theodoris of old. NO! He was a guy that could at least cause some damage. C'mon, try again, Teddy-San!
Who does Mizuno sponsor these days?
Brooks? Fila? And shoe sponsors are busy promoting, not reading this. And if you are really a running store and posting anonymously, please say the name of your store and I will never shop there. I will buy Saucony shoes because
I like them, Eddy wears them, Lornah Kiplagat wears them, and the dude who was 2nd in NY Marathon.

Read the friggin posts. It says RUNNERS DEN in Phoenix. I bet they close their doors tomorrow without your sales.
I love how he identifies with "the dude who was 2nd in NY Marathon". Nice.Fila sponsors Josh Cox and some pretty good women. Mizuno and Brooks don't sponsor any quality Americans.... and neither does Saucony!

I do not recall Josh breaking 2:15 in the past year either dumb ass. Eddy never dnf'd in the USA singlet, wrong again.
Khalid, Brantly and Morris did so give them shit. But Runners Den is off my list, and I live out west, can appreciate a cowboy, hate a coward. Who remembers Kenyans names anyways. Lets call this sight Eddyruns.com.
82 percent of funding for the World Class Athlete Program is from sources other than taxpayer dollars. Annual taxpayer expense is less than $300,000 for this program.
2:15:01 in 2003. Closer than Eddy or any other Saucony runner, idiot. So, let's say that Fila doesn't have any, either. Saucony still doesn't!
You're right Eddy didn't DNF, but HE SURE AS FUCK SHOULD HAVE: 2:28:01. Embarrassing.
Eddy is no cowboy, he's a carpet-bagger.
This is a SITE, not a sight, and you're just another ignorant American. I'll remember "Paul Tergat" long after I've forgotten whatever your name is......
Devin,
Just went through the customer base and guess what? You have never shopped here before unless you are untrue about your name. So I didn't lose a customer afterall. I did have a phone call from Boulder today with an order for a pair of shoes. They ordered them based on this thread. So I was wrong when I thought you guys wouldn't sell shoes. You guys do a great job of selling someone elses brand.
Runners Den,
Care to explain the comment WE won't sell the shoes because of the athletes that wear them.? Just curious, but this can be construed in a number of ways.
The topic was breaks 2:15/28:40. Kevin Collins 2:15 does not count at a championship, but Josh's 2:15 does, did he break 2:15 in the past year? No. Hope Arturo Barrios enoys his new shoes from Runners Den. By the way a Saucony athlete has been in the top 5 at New Times 10k for the past 3 years, the largest race in Phoenix. Never saw an athlete from the Runners Den competitive in the race. But they spend too much time on letsrun, het there is a customer, wait let me finish posting. Looks like Al Bundy bought a running shop.
There is a masters athlete going to be on Jay Leno tonite,
for holding a few masters world records. Looks like people do find masters athletes interesting.

What are there names?
President Bush called he wants his money back. 300k is alot, imagine if we gave that money to the Hansons instead?
Today is 4/15, tax day what are we funding? I did not mind when Dan Browne was out there, but the program is a waste.
Is that the same Dan Browne that got spanked by Sandu at World Cross Trials and just to prove it wasn't a fluke he bitch slapped him again at World Cross.
By the way, Hansons is overrated.
Hansons is results, end of story. Did Sandu win Twin Cities, New Haven and Parkersburg?
Sandu didn't race those events, he is a steeple guy. But when they ran head to head in Cross, Sandu made him cry like a little Teddy.
Yeah! Since Clint Wells went to Nike, why is he not as good as he was last year under Saucony??
S. Wells
Where is there an indication that he's worse? He ran a better indoor 3K last year?
First year not to make world cross in like 5 years for Dr. Wells.
Hello, you guys got me to come back again with another ridiculous arguement. Someone is also forgetting that the Army pay is online and if I went to post numbers they would be 100% correct as of January 2003. I am not a sub 28:40 or sub 2:15 guy, so why talk about me at all. I am not worth the effort. There are so many people out there against the Army program and believe it or not I am proud to be in the National Guard and I promote all soldiers at all times in this time of crisis. I wish all the WCAP soldiers and officers the best of luck this year, but let me straighten something out for the record.
The following is the pay scale for WCAP and all Armed forces for the ranks that are present in Boulder which comes entirely from the tax payers federal funds to the department of defense:
Per Month Salary Housing Married Single
O-3 $3562.20 $1575 $1436
(3 years)
O-2 $2864.70 $1497 $1261
(2 years)
O-1
(1 year) $2183.70 $1340 $982
E-5
(4 years) $1903.50 $1320 $915
E-4
(2 years) $1579.80 $1151 $784
E-3
(1 year) $1356.90 $1151 $784
The enlisted soldiers also get an aditional $283 per month for meals and the officers get $180 for meals. If you add $3562.20, plus the before tax value of $1436 plus $180, then the top paid guys in this program make the equivalent of $65,000 per year in the civilian world, not $40,000 or whatever that other post claimed. Also for the record, the US Department of Education states that all Military Government Acedemies (Point, Air, and Anapolis) have a cost of over $200,000 per graduating officer over 4 years time. This is on the internet too. So these are the numbers that I would have posted had it been my idea. Oh! The military pay is public knowledge at dfas.mil/money/milpay/2003paytable.pdf if anyone is interested in wher I got these numbers.
In closing I would like to state that I only use this site for results and many people share my opinions and like to post what sounds like me, so next time you think it is me and it bothers you, call me at 407-474-3218 or email me at
as I have nothing to hide and I do not post without my name. Yes, I run for Saucony and this whole post was an attact on me and my coach Eddy Hellebuyck, who is a great man.
