An elite athlete not focused on their training? Really?
He didn’t say that. He said not focused on her mpw. Which isn’t uncommon. At my peak I was consistently running 75-85 mpw but that number wasn’t the goal or the determining factor in the training, it was the workouts themselves. I only knew my mileage by adding it up myself and not everyone on the team even cared.
She's not a hobby-jogger. It's hard to lose track of 30mpw. But an athlete or their coach who isn't closely monitoring mileage with their cross-training isnt a professional. That's what a "scientific" training programme is - and training is supposed to be the key to success of all these athletes.

Who said her coach doesn't monitor her mileage?
"I don’t think she pays much attention to her mpw numbers. You’re probably more focused on that than she is."
So she doesn't seem to know but you think her coach does. Perhaps he should share it with her.
Sounds like you want to people to avoid the topic, lol. You could always *not* read threads that you don't like, you know. Or maybe that is too difficult?

Why are you asking these people as though they have the answer? None of them are in her camp.
Until she or her coach come out and say it, we have no idea her actual mileage, we have no idea if she does/does not 'focus' on her mileage. Everything else is hearsay.

She will be at Grand Slam Miami in a Brooks kit - you heard it hear first
I don’t really think you can conclude definitively that she’s left NB just from someone’s supposed observations of her social media affiliations. Seems a little weak and it makes no sense for her to have left after less than a year.

In fact I think that the person who inferred she had left was just a troll. He didn’t present any evidence besides rumors and speculation.
