Robert Young fakes run across America

Like maybe that was really Dustin on the bike?

Bingo! The fact that they posted GPS data that came from Dustin while he was on the bike video taping Rob is proof that Dustin riding the bike is also part of these record breaking"runs" pre-Asher!

That is Dustin with the British accent right? I can't quite make out what he is saying as he is taping Rob running.

skyrefuge,

The answer is both. That was probably dustin on the bike, and they are also that dumb. They continually do things that defy all logic, including but not limited to;

driving across the country at 10mph on interstate highways,

releasing gps data that basically proves their guilt,

using a gps but not bothering to get continual gps data,

thinking 5:00 pace mid transcon at 9000ft altitude is a perfectly reasonable lie,

claiming they don't have internet access in a video they just uploaded onto the internet,

etc. etc.

The Daily Mail article says 'today I still have quite a number of scars on my body from these beatings'.

We get to see quite a lot of his body on the running photos and videos - but no sign of any scars....??

I am quite sure there's a whole lot of the personal back story that is as fabricated as the running.

Don't forget the stupidity of uploading two sets of GPS data for the same daily run. Then posting a video showing why that was the case by showing Dustin on the bike with GPS video taping Rob running with GPS

Oops!

Response from skins UK on messenger when I asked about why they are supporting him still and if they will continue to support him.

Hi Lindley,

As you would appreciate we do not want to execute a decision about Rob simply due to the weight of negative social media comments where those comments come from anonymous sources and, in large part, caste dispersions on Rob and his conduct without evidence. We just do not do that as a brand. We need to be balanced and fair and will act accordingly once we have all the facts.

As mentioned in our statement, SKINS will appoint a qualified independent person(s) with standing within the running community to review Robert’s world record attempt in-depth, including his GPS data to investigate and analyse the accusations that have been made, and will share these findings independently from Robert or SKINS with the running community.

We are close to confirming two independent people and we should have more information and a press release regarding this in the next 1-3 days.

Thanks,

SKINS Team

This is the best thing I've read on this thread in some time. Thanks!

"without evidence"

just because they refuse to look at the evidence put forth doesn't mean there is no evidence....

Scars are easy enough to hide and the photos aren't detailed enough for the most part. Not saying it's not fabricated--just saying this is not a defensible argument for the "haters"

"execute a decision"?

"cast dispersions"??

Who gets PAID to write like this?

Anonymous SKINS drone calling out anonymous LRC trolls. It's Monday morning at the circus.

And has there been any discussion of this craziness near Toledo, KS, just west of Emporia?

The GPS track turns south off of US 50 onto a small dirt dead-end road that crosses a couple sets of railroad tracks that parallel US 50. It backtracks north and south over itself on that road, crossing the tracks *multiple times*, in addition to heading briefly east and west(!) *along* one set of tracks, before finally heading east along a dirt path between the sets of tracks. Then it goes a mile on that dirt path before jogging back north onto US 50.

All told, it was nearly a mile of aimless back-and-forth before finally deciding to take the tracks eastward!

If I'm being charitable, I assume there was a car fire on US 50 in that 1-mile section that had the road closed, so Rob found a way to detour around it. But that doesn't explain the aimless back-and-forth.

I suppose an alternate explanation would be again that this is the track from a bored bike rider just riding around. Particularly since the pace drops from ~6min/mi to Rob's walking pace when the GPS track returns to US 50. Maybe Rob and the RV were walking down US 50 the whole time while Dustin was off exploring, and then he met back up with them on US 50 and walked/rode with them for the last mile of the GPS track?

Anyone know how to make a segment for the day 1 part of the run on Atlanta Ave? It sure looks suspicious. Would be curious to see how other runners tracks look (specifically the street crossings). He has to be on a bike by then. Pace is very, very fast.

I found an article a while back where the author corroborated the existence of scars on his thigh and foot IIRC, one of which Rob said was due to his father forcing his sister to stab him.

This would have been in the time frame a film crew was with him (possibly ESPN based on their account of the story). They probably had him doing random stuff to get some "better" shots of him running.

- you can tell because when possible the cyclist/videographer cuts away from the street.

There's nothing untoward here specifically, but why would Dustin have a TomTom on the bike? Perhaps the bike was a part of the fraud after all?

Ah, ok, and the segment I was investigating (

) immediately follows that run + bike segment. So we have hard evidence of a segment that was produced by a bike rider, and then in the segment immediately following that one, the GPS track looks suspiciously bike-rider-ish (particularly since bike segment #1 has a veer into a "monsterslayer.com" storefront very similar to segment #2's veer into "Something Sexy 2", the erotic toy/video store). That makes it very easy to believe that segment #2 was also produced by a bike ride.

"No evidence"...

Jesus, I hope this is just some email answering intern and not the guy in charge of giving data to the panel. "Here are the bad comments about him on our blog - please evaluate these"...

Only someone who has ran a route can make a segment from it.

Good catch, that's at least a theory that doesn't require straight-up insanity from Rob. It was at lunchtime, and who doesn't like shots near railroad tracks (or even train cars!) to epitomize the crossing of middle-America?

I think you meant to link this one:

Dammit, yes, bad copy/paste on my part. Thanks for the correction!
