Rojo says he might start a Kip Litton thread but only 1 and only 1 thread

I told you guys exactly the reason - fact checking is pretty thorough

It must be thorough. It's only been 14 months since you said it would be out "very soon." And according to you, you know it all.

I know it's been 18 months since Kip toe'd the line at Charlotte ThunderRoad. It's still "very Soon". Sorry to all trolls for the inconvenience

You blew it.

Spot on. SOKLR you had a good run, but you screwed up using this as the continued delay.

Fact checking kills articles all the time - especially publications with as large a circ as you're describing. And yet the principals are that confident of its publication?

There goes your credibility...

Not only did you post a like to your obviously biased and non-credible site, but there were not any photos of Kip Litton leaving that course, nor were there any of him returning to the course.

I think more and more of us are starting to see what is really going on here and honestly, it's quite sad.

Trollist, those photos show him walking and jogging with slowpokes at the start and changing out of a black raincoat and changing shoes as well. Do you know why anyone trying to run 2:45-2:59ish would do that during a trail marathon?

Why was kip Litton DQed at this race? You can talk to the deadwood SD race director, but it's pretty obvious

I believe this was a trail marathon in middle of nowhere South Dakota where Kip wasnt spotted by other runners on the course but magically finished near the top. Why did no one else see him on the course?

Let's not forget that the South Dakota one was within weeks of DQs at Missoula Montana an Delaware marathons as well. You can talk to either RD for these reasons

I hate to get nasty but Kip already admitted at least once to leaving course at Detroit Free press Relay where he confessed he "must've taken a wrong turn."

And Sage Canaday, 2:16 marathoner and winner of this year's Mt Washington Road Race, (posts here on letsrun.com as SCanaday) calls out Kip Litton in his Running with the Hansons book, please see:

Don't let the trolls get to you.

I can't speak to the article but I've looked through enough photos and results to know Litton cheated at most of his races in his last few years of racing...

...and the fact that he hasn't bothered to toe the line in well over a year - that tells you all you need to know.

Does anyone possess photo or video evidence of Dr. Litton leaving or off the course of a marathon he finished?

So is that what you would consider proof that you cheated in a race?

I guess maybe I missed it. Where are the photos of Rosie Ruiz leaving the course? Martin Franklin? Has there ever been a cheating case where photos or video of the person leaving the course have been produced? The answer, apparently, is yes, #8 on the list below.

Everyone else on that list needs to be have their results reinstated since there is no "proof" that they cheated.

What are the runner's names that saw him?

Talk to the RDs.

If kip Litton's cheating doesn't interest you, there are countless other threads on letsrun.com.

Hey SOKLR. Can you just post a couple of those emails you have to quite all these doubters out here?

He's too busy fact checking to get back to you.

This was not me. When you quote him like I did above you can see that there is a space after the "g" in the name he used.

I don't have permission from the writer to copy and paste emails here.

This isn't from the writer, but some communication with ROJO that goes way back to January, 2011.

"Good news guys! I just received an email from Robert Johnson (rojo) from LetsRun.com, in response to several repeat posts I'd made about the deletions (the "Rojo & Wejo - please read this..." threads). Anyway, here is what he said:

------

I was not aware that all of the Litton threads were being deleted. I think exposing his cheating is a good thing.

I have asked our moderator to not delete Kip Litton threads. That being said, I think there should only be one Kip Litton Thread. If my brother were in the country, i'd put back up the original thread. I have no idea who keeps posting them over and over. It's driving me nut.

Maybe I'l start an official kip litton thread.

Robert Johnson

Co-Founder, LetsRun.com"

This was my reply to him:

----------

Dear Coach Johnson,

Thank you very much for the reply. I don’t know you, but I had a suspicion that you might be unaware of what was going on. That was the only thing that made sense.

I agree with you about only having one main Kip Litton thread. I like the idea of you starting one. I’d suggest you mention that 1.) that you were unaware they were being deleted, and 2.) request that everyone keep it to that thread as much as possible. I imagine most people will respect your wishes. I know I certainly will. My guess is that the multiple threads/repeated posts was a direct result of people’s frustration from the deleted threads with no explanation. As soon as you post something to that effect, I bet much of the frustration goes away.

Maybe once your brother returns, you could put back up the original thread and just link to it from the one you start now? There was a TON of good research in that previous thread, and it would save people a lot of rehashing. Just a suggestion.

Anyway, thanks again for the followup. Please let me know if I can do anything, or if you’d rather me start the “official Kip Litton” thread.

All the best,

not my reply to him but "Very Disappointed"

I have lots of emails from the writer too saying that he is not writing an article.

I don't have permission from him to post them though.

Good Lord, son. You sound like a pansy in those emails.

My boy SOKLR is toying with you boys like a cat with a string. Givin' ya a snippet here and a snippet there. And ya'll just keep bitin' on it. Fact checkin' - priceless.

keep workin' it, yo.
