Robert Young fakes run across America

The ease with which someone can accurately record their run and post evidence to the whole world makes this cluster fvck of a run just a joke. There is only one rational reason it's this hard to keep track of the guy.[/quote]

EXACTLY!

You answered your own question, it's not just Laz watching him.

And the Reddit girl is cute.

Agreed that the gal is cute

She's just another 'narcissistic publicity seeking look at me millennial', which makes a change to a 'millennial troll sitting behind their keyboard in their moms basement' which seems to get mentioned here a lot.

Glows brightest just before it goes.....'poof'

Of course not - that would involve these depressed LRC millennials mustering up the strength to get out of the house.

Did you not read the Redit link with Strava and pics?

I did; she's a redditor - didn't report here. She cleary lucid and has wits about her as opposed to the typical lot here.

Thanks for asking.

Judging by this photo with the Reddit babe Laz looks in a worse state than Rob.

He's still wearing that white dress shirt?

Did he get a contract with Van Huesen?

to my knowledge, he is still out there, now.

pushing on.

I am just guessing.

still, i hope when the miles per hour gets too low,

he will rest again.

I'm not bashing Laz, as his "team" are the only people to step up and check up on this fiasco - but, as an observation - if the people who are watching him don't know if he's out there still running?? Um, really? Isn't that when Rob can hop onto the RV and let the RV put in some extra miles?

Well, whatever. The ease with which someone can accurately record their run and post evidence to the whole world makes this cluster fvck of a run just a joke. There is only one rational reason it's this hard to keep track of the guy.

They are working in shifts. If Laz is posting to the UltraList, then he's done his shift and has found a place with Internet access.

Thinking the same thing, I've only been skimming the last 100 or so pages of the thread so I assumed it had been discussed and I missed it.

Why run in a dress shirt?

The reddit babe is OK, I'd hit that, but I don't have very high standards.

Yes, Laz is Van Huesen's face of the future, you'd think he'd look a bit happier about it though.

PS Hope Laz has a sense of humor and he's not like all those other super sensitive U-list types.

Someone mentioned that the White dress shirt is from Laz so that Rob wouldn't get as many sunburns since he has pasty white skin from not actually having been running much. It's thick enough to block some sun but thin enough to allow air through and is not black in color like the idiotic SKINS clothing.

And I think that Reddit girl is wearing too much eye makeup.

Fat drunk and stupid is no way to go through life son

The shoe thing is smart. Toes should be able to dorsiflex ,not be tightly strapped down to the toe of a flat shoe.

Van Huesen has right of first refusal. No WR for RY, and there's a good chance he signs with no reductions with Sears or JCPenney.

Yes, a very long day in Indy. I think they're approaching 11 hours within the city limits and there is still another 5-6 miles to go just to clear the city.

The white shirts were an entry fee for Barkley one year. True.

Yes. Additionally, most folks do not realise how much their forefoot will widen and swell after several days of long mileage. It also allows the feet to dry much better - though I would pick a pair of wool socks over what Mr. young appears to be wearing.

Can't remember the last time I had a blister in DryMax socks.Good to break them in before going long though to soften them up some.

day four and we've earned the crew's trust

they shared the gps data with us today

I can now put the rumors comfortably to rest

but that is not why im here

robs days start in the beginning

and generally end when theyre done

truly remarkable

he falls often

each time finding a way to land directly on his face.

altho he never stops moving

he lays there prone & bleeding, often for hours

his arms pumping,

legs turning over

he'll learn that he doesn't always have to move his legs

but that only comes with experience

still his growth is undeniable

yesterday he was a slow runner;

today he is a man who runs slowly

(a subtle but important distinction among ultra runners)

the sun is setting now

sliding its way down the sky

it is what it is

unless its something else entirely
