You said that you don't buy that the arc trainer is her chief training method. Why would she lie about the amount of time she sends running as opposed to the arc trainer?

I didn't say that I don't buy that it is her chief training method. But it may not be the sole reason for her success. Others have expressed similar scepticism.
Kyle Valby FTW! Time to upgrade that RV to a motor coach!
in the podcast she said she was at her parents house in Tampa Bay over the weekend… not sure what NBC was going on about during the trials when they said they sold everything and lived in an RV.
I think the Valby's own two homes in the area. One near Eastlake and also on the beach.
This Running Effect kid, how do we feel about him? He seems to get people to talk a little, at least sit down to talk.
Discus.
He's fine but way too much religion on the show for my taste. He's sort of moving into the LinkedIn influencer mode lately, with his posts being the sort of faux-braggadocio/motivational speaker type that most of us are way too sick of reading. He does get good people and the vibe is a bit more calm and casual than Citius or some of the other podcasts.
For a young guy, he has done pretty well for himself with the gig, so it's hard to be too harsh about him.
My guess is that Puma wants Valby but isn't prepared to pay what she thinks she deserves.
Nike has been custom making shoes for her and has great groups to join but valby knows she'll not be a star in the nike lineup.
She's out of NB's league I suspect. Adidas doesn't care.
I'm guessing puma will sign her, and really try to help her develop a big presence on the social media side. the girl has solid rizz and can get a lot of followers.
Valby is a college hype thing. No excitement as a pro. She still has no contract
Yeah. She only competed at two pro track meets this summer. She got 2nd at a race that didn't allow any international runners. Then she came in 11th at some track meet in Europe. She should just go get her Realtor's license.
I wonder if adding some part of image rights in her contract, so she gets paid variably based on sponsor and other social media posts, could make the difference in what she wants paid.
