Matthew Centrowitz Now Self-Coached, Living in Utah

It makes me a little sad the secret about Utah is out. For so long outsiders avoided it because of the strong Mormon stigma. The best trails are getting crowded.

How do you think the native Americans felt when Joseph smith and his cult came and murdered their people and as well as those pioneers down in st George? You’ll survive

Gotta hand it to Centro.. this is just a wise move. 1. At his age, he knows what works for him, I doubt a coach would have that much added value. 2. In his NOP and Bowerman years he's had to answer questions because of what Salazar and Houlihan did. 3. He's going to a place where there's no luck of runners that can help with long runs and tough workouts.

Brilliant.

er/dr did you win slc marathon recently?

How is there not a single mention in David Monti's article of the Bowerman Track Club? Is Centro still sponsored by Nike? Why did he leave BTC? Why is track and field journalism so bad? This is nothing but PR.

Just in time for SLC area to become inhabitable due to water shortages and toxic dust from the Great Salt Lake.

Monti is perhaps the worst of the grovelers masquerading as journalists.

So cilantro finally made his move...

And the final nail is in the coffin. Done.

Were you taught history by Nikole Hannah-Jones? You must attend the church of CRT.

Mormon settlers were chased out of their homes in Missouri. There was literally a law allowing anyone to kill Mormons on sight in Missouri. They had nowhere to go. Many settlers were extremely poor immigrants from the British Isles who left starving from the Irish Potato blight. These mormon settlers that settled Utah were incredibly poor.

I also find it fascinating that you don't mention the violent Ute tribe that wreaked havoc murdering surrounding tribes. Nor did you mention the Spanish that had been in the areas hundreds of years prior who had enslaved and murdered the native population. They also died in droves from disease brought by the Spanish.

Also, you're apparently not aware of thousands of years of various native American cultures, nearly constantly in a state of flux, being exterminated by the next wave of continually developing societies of other native Americans.

But yes, it was all Brigham Young's fault. He's the real villain here. It's that simple.

He did not ask any important or tough questions. Not much meat to this so called piece of journalism.

Any chance Centro trains with Mantz somewhat?

Wait til you see other US media

It doesn't mention where Centro is located, could be Provo but could also be park city or somewhere else

A little? How about a lot. They all brought their mountain bikes, too. Line of cars up Big Cottonwood Canyon last Saturday was literally to I- 215.

Some trails where I live were getting crowded and overused. Jammed up between bikers, hikers, runners, and families with little kids.

The solution was for volunteers to work with the authorities. One main trail was turned into 4 approximately parallel trail routes. Some mapping, some planning, some labor... Boom, fixed.

One route option was made with curves, jumps, etc that bikers prefer. One route easy and gentle -- you can bet families with grandma or lil tykes use that one. Two routes average difficulty.

Now the trails are reasonably peaceful.

yeah cos that's an old man's event

No need to out anyone The board is anonymous for a reason. He crushed the WIRL last summer.
