Robert Young fakes run across America

No hope in that area, he's polish, Dustin Brook's wife is polish, Rob's wife is polish, Dustin is Rob's master media manipulator and chief app and tech guy, the Brooks live in East Sheen, Rob lives in East Sheen, Eva mentioned in Rob's book lives in East Sheen, Eva illustrates childrens books, Dustin publishes childrens books, they are all part of the East Sheen collective and so it goes on and on etc etc you get the picture

Maybe they will make a Polish children's book about this whole thing.

Besides if the video is in Polish no one would understand it.

Exactly how long does anyone expect Robs marriage to last??? Seriously being married to a guy that needs a gofundme to pay bills for family #2 and disappears so he can be accused of not running across America and meeting a bunny girl in the middle of the night.

Poles aren't stupid. Tick tock.

So about 36 hours ago I decided to take a break from the thread and actually work. In general, this thread has cost me a lot of money, but I would give anything to reverse the decision to pause consumption. I go away and the whole house of cards finally collapse! Wtf. It's been wild, I will stick around just in case they start to "mobilize" again and there may be some more funnies posted. But I don't expect closure or accountability, they are just slowly creeping into a deep dark hole and that's all she wrote.

I am deeply saddened that Rob could not continue his penance, but delighted the ultra crew got him to hang himself with his own rope.

Sayonara to another fraud!

I saw references earlier about his book being goat written by Dustin. Was that a serious claim with evidence?

Sure was and is:

"Ghostwriting Marathon Man UK book

Dustin Brooks

September 2015 – December 2015 (4 months)

Interviewing, researching and writing Rob Young's memoirs that tell of his incredible, record breaking year running marathons in the UK and across America."

"goat written" was a good way to put it too. I got about halfway through the book. Can't do it anymore. FWIW, the blog is written with the same semi-condescending strange tone. I assume, though I have no evidence, that Mr Ghost Writer PR guy was also responsible for writing the blog. Which, along with the nonsensical mile totals, the blog helped send up the flare in the first place because it's just so... weird.

And the PR guy is almost assuredly behind padding his twitter followers and the Turkish facebook likes. O sarhoÅŸ!

And probably the padded resume.

And probably the padded wiki page.

I see it this way, no one other than a small set of dedicated ultra runners would have noticed, or cared about, this fraud if it remained a discussion of RY's miles per day.

It took Asher's initial drive-by video evidence and subsequent security footage to blow thing up and get more people involved in the analysis.

The graph plotters and data crunchers Illustrated the fraudulent miles and

Team Laz made RY try to prove, and fail, at hitting his unrealistic daily mileage.

I, on the other hand, was the first to point out that fake RY was not carrying a flashlight, but a cellphone, in the security footage. I now demand a recount on the award voting.

We are in 5th place. The man is right. Such is tech work.

I don't have a speech prepared. Like to thank my mom and grandma and all the little people. And have to say... Gonna print this list out and take it to the trophy store, see if they'll make me a 5th place ribbon... Big shout out to noobrunner who really got me going. Thank you. Big team effort from both camps but they both have their strengths and weaknesses. Anonymity emcourages freedom but also allows filth.

P.s. There's still some unsummarized damning evidence in the logs. If journalists start poking around for that...

Can someone link to some of the best Fake Laz posts?

Unless you did some trolling too in which case you can share in 4th with me.

True dat.

Two special ribbons then.

Anybody else notice he went through Yolo, KS?

Let's start planning for the inevitable hollywood blockbuster.

Who plays who in the movie? Who plays Laz and his posse? Who plays Rob? Who plays Asher?

Who plays the charity children? Who plays Rob's family in youthful flashback scenes?

You know hollywood is gonna have a love sub-theme... how will they work it in? Who will be the lover?

Kevin and Rob or Dustin and Rob

I think that this story would make a better indie flick, though Hollywood sucks and the plot is captivating enough as is. No love sub-theme needed.

Does anyone read posts like this? I didn't read the whole thing. My brain kind of sees the first line or so and says "skip". I am here for the high quality trolling, Fake Laz, the humor, and the investigative work. Don't even know or care what this is about. Much like this post. Carry on.

"Does anyone read posts like this?"

I sure don't...

I've heard the reddit chick was a bit of a goer so why not her

I envision a Broke Back Mountain love theme between Rob Young and Dustin Brooks with Coach Kev being the third wheel and getting jealous. It's only logical with 3 guys stuck in a small RV together for 2 months straight.

We're going to need you to focus more and try better to keep up. We already covered this a few pages back.

Regarding the last response to me ("That post just confirmed you're an idiot. Sorry.": Well to be honest, if I got any respect from the masses here on LR, I'd be pretty concerned. I never heard of LR until seeing a reference on the uList about Asher's discovery; I spent a few days reading every post; as an idiot, it took me a while to realize that if I wanted to find much in the way of intelligent thoughts, I'd be better off being in my great-grandson's kindergarten class... So I dropped the LR reading. But then today I thought I'd see what you all thought of this end?-point, so I idiotically returned and it's taken idiot-me half the day to realize my great-granddaughter's preschool class has you all beat in the brains department. And so it is.

Does anyone read posts like this?

I skimmed over it, I think he was confirming he's an idiot, but I'm not too bright myself, so I could be wrong.

Sorry NoiseFilter, I did mean the original word vomit you were commenting on... NOT your message, which was spot-on

According to the RY RV rules interpretation

I claim reaching NYC first at 11:03:43 EDT

So did he quit yet? The tracker is still at Golden Corral!
