Robert Young fakes run across America

The crew was probably

18/05/2016 Arizona Dustin Brooks Michael Speicher Alfa Severino Michael Miller & Crew

or

16/05/2016 California / Nevada / Arizona Dustin Brooks Michael Speicher Linda Mazenko & Family

I think that's Dustin in the photo with the tow truck driver, Alvin:

. Also makes sense since Dustin as the blog write quoted the tow truck driver about Ford vs Chevy.

Well Alfa and Linda are probably RY fangirls. I messaged Alfa. Linda did that Race Across USA race with him. Can't find Miller. I doubt anyone knows or will spill the beans...

Watch this fraud pop up 2 days later, saying he's 300 miles past where he left off on his run and is feeling great. Tracker malfunctioned. He's making us think he's done so we dont follow him vigorously. And I've never heard of buying Facebook followers. This guy is a con artist.

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?

Bradley Cooper to play Asher

Taron Egerton to play Rob Young

Leonardo DiCaprio to play Lazarus Lake

Meryl Streep to play Sandra

Scarlett Johansson to play the reddit runner

Eddie Redmayne to play Dustin Brooks

Ben Foster to play Peter Sagan

Emma Stone to play the bunny girl

Jake Gyllenhaal to play rojo

Michael Cera would be the perfect Asher Delmott. Picture him with a headlamp trying to catch the RV as it speeds away and the corresponding disappointment and later sense of betrayal as the truth becomes clear.

rest ye merry gentlemen

for now I nod

if the gutter press in GB run with this and find out that he has been lying about his early life, faking a record run will be the least of his worries.

You're so right and I can see the headline already: TRANSCON - MARATHON MAN OUTED ON FAKE RUN ACROSS USA!

Plus it won't stop at running, the red tops will expose everything they can find. He's made himself fair game by conning people out of money for charity on false grounds.

Unfortunately no newspaper will give a shit about someone 99.9% of the population hasn't heard of nor cares about, it's not sensational headlines!

Gotta agree that lets runners did the heavy lifting, but the ulisters provided an assist.

The geezer crew would not have been out there if not for lets run. We put the squeeze on RY and the list to act.

The only boot you actually got on the ground (besides Asher, which counts for lots) was a dude who spied in a wal mart parking lot for two whole hours before getting bored and pedaling home.

The geezers were mobilizing before this group knew what was what.

Plus the 24-36 hour posts by rojo. Which, yeah.

The Geezers were crucial, but:

- Asher is one of us!

- We created the useful Google Doc.

- We discovered the lies about his pro cycling career, his first 3 marathons, his PR's, his crew (the name of Dustin Brooks isn't even mentioned on Ulist).

- We did the analysing of the RV tracker (kml file) and even created cool graphs.

- We managed to get some media attention.

- We trolled CoachKev and Andy.

- We created memes.

Still to do:

- Get attention from the British tabloids.

- Destroy SKINS.

- Out the East Sheen Gang.

I found these excerpts from your post quite provocative.

Also, I think it's been mentioned a couple of times Dustin Brook's wife has been around giving massage

Marathonmanuk Like stated before the vehicle broke down around 6:30am we have proof - many calls were made to get a toe truck again

Do you think this is where Robbie shows the very common British trait of "sloppy" and hurt/fractured his toe at this point in the trip?

This could be a subtle sloppy slip by Robbie.

How many miles did Robbie®Team Smash™ out in the last 24 hours?

Update Robbie®Team Smash™ Sausage Level®?

Hello there chaps,

I just bumped into RY on Regents Canal Towpath in London. He's been back in the UK since yesterday.

the media will eat this up...after has is exposed as a cheat

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.

I can confirm Dustin's marriage is over. No joke.

(Proof: he is no longer FB friends with his Polish ex-wife.)

And yes, it's interesting that Rob was claiming he has no longer any contact with his father because he was "abused" (probably a lie). Nowadays, he hasn't seen two of his kids for more than a month and his third kid for years. Really a good dad. #forthechildren

Hahahaa, good one. As if he was running someplace!

MarathonMan. WineMan. ConMan.

There is a reason why they called it the TransCon.

Ok not exactly gonna be a royal family scandal but the tabloids sell lots of papers highlighting benefit cheats who are 100% unknown to the public. The Rob Young con job is something the tabloids would definitely run with if they can get a coherent and solid break down of the evidence. On second thoughts, the red tops never care about the latter so just need a scandal. Once more is revealed about Rob's charities, then it'll become a big deal. Make no mistake, people here are already trolling through everything now and won't stop until every last piece of dirt is exposed.

This should serve as a cautionary tale for all runners, ultra runners, and stunt runners.

LRC will find you and break you.

Still at Golden Corral?! I am busy this morning but will go take a look this afternoon if its still there.

Don't worry, LRCers have been hard at work sharing the fake FB likes info with Skins, RY fans and the general public.

Back to the most pertinent issue - has anyone shared this story with the UK media yet? If not, here's an action plan:

1. We need a concise and well-written summary of events. Basically in press release style.

2. This needs to be tweeted/emailed to news editors at BBC, Guardian, Sun, etc.

Possibly they are still there.

Or they switched the tracker off and it is still reporting their last location.

Or they dumped the tracker on the parking lot.

Boots on the ground is the only way to know for sure.

Oh boy. This post indicates that you are posting while dreaming.

Please wake up.

As there is no activity from the tracker or the FB page, I've been furtling around the internet. A little searching reveals that in mid 2007 RY was telling his friends he was riding in the 'team car' for the TdF (FB posts from 2007 - only his friends' replies are visible, not his original posts). A little extra trawling brought up this: http://www.itnsource.com/shotlist/RTV/2007/07/05/RTV997807/?v=0 but that gives no context as to why RY was interviewed by ITN (UK news channel), presumably stock footage given the 2007 TdF started in Kent? Can anyone identify if the colours he is wearing are specific to a team?
