Valby isn't even the UF school record holder for 6k... Jessica Pascoe won the 2018 SEC XC Championships in 18:55 at Auburn. Pascoe went on to run 16:03 the next spring. Just sayin...
It's amusing that mods are just now starting to delete Tuohy posts when we can have 30 pages assassinating the character of another college runner. Amazing.
Indeed. They even deleted a photo that is from this very website with their caption on it.

School records for XC is stupid. All courses are different difficulty and more than like a different length.
XC isn’t about time. There is a sport called track & field that is about the measurements of time & distance.

Right, so why are we making a big deal of the 18:58 this weekend???

It is not the Tuohy fans making it a big deal. Look at the title of this thread. It’s just another attempt by the anti-Tuohy contingent to take this opportunity to troll. This has gone on for years now: Dudek, Hutchins, Cook, Valby. Give it time, it will be somebody else. Meanwhile, Tuohy is having the time of her life running in college, having great teammates and coaching and just keeps winning. Guess who was just named NCAA D1 XC athlete of the week for the second time this year? Tuohy .Because she ran against much better competition at Nuttycombe and it’s so obvious that course in Texas was short. It seems there have been some outlier times before such as Kelati and now this example of Pascoe.
An excellent run undoubtedly but McRaven said that the course may be 30-40 meters short of a full 6k and that dry conditions (little rain over the summer and none in the past month) plus short grass led to a fast, hard course. Considering she is now running more, it is common sense she'd be in better shape than when she was coming back from a fractured foot
Thank you for negating the silly comments about Valby's competitors not congratulating her. Your friends claimed that was a criterion for suspecting doping.
Once again, they were not my friends and it wasn't my argument.
That's not the reason. I don't agree with your comments about her physique or her progression. If she's doping, it doesn't show.
So you're just willfully ignoring evidence to protect your innocence? People dope if there is incentive. In this case, there clearly is a large incentive. You seem to be clinging to the idea of a clean sport. Naive.

Doping discussion isn't banned on this site. But many of you would have it so.

It is banned if it involves applying the same standards to Tuohy that are being applied to other college runners.
Have to agree, the Houlihan threads had at least one apologist: Rojo.
You left out rekrunner - of course - and the man with a thousand hats. There was quite a band of brothers.
Big surprise -- another thread suspecting that talent can only be explained artificially, from the same small subset of people who probably also believe that they are fans of the sport.
When the faithful cannot articulate any substantial reasons for their strongly held yet unfounded beliefs, they accuse skeptical non-believers of being apologists, projecting their own worldviews in terms of the limited vocabulary available to them.
