I heard he's getting spikes surgically embedded into the sole of his foot so he doesn't have to worry about properly tying his shoes anymore. Not that he ever did.

I heard from a guy that he went blind over the summer and set a workout record using the stick with red tape and a ball on the end.

"Or German will do what he's done in the past: run for the team and finish in the top 12 or so at the Nov. 21 NCAA championships, and inevitably some 24-minute 5K’er sitting in his parents’ basement in Iowa will opine that German "doesn't have it" anymore and a rush of message board posters will chime in and agree."
Shooting for 12th at NCAAs? German doesn't have it anymore.
Yeah, he definitely hasn't got it anymore.
I'd like to chime in and agree.
I heard German was kicked off the team for stealing his coach's car.
I heard German isn't in shape and won't be in top shape all season, but will still somehow do great at nationals... ?
So one of two things will happen later this fall. The message boards will post that Fernandez has been kicked off the team for repositioning Smith’s car, and no one will believe it.

I found the entire article ironic. The writer seems to be neglecting the fact that he himself visits LR. I mean honestly Flotrack made an entire episode about this thread just last week. No one on this site runs 24 minutes for 5k and most of the guys are older (not living in parents basement). The writer of that article, a Mr. Matt McCue, is completely delusional and out of touch with reality.
lets go Raiders...

I would say that chasing down a bear and teaching him to play cello in under three hours is pretty impressive! I can only think of one other person who has done anything similar . . .
getting his balls liked by a runningtimes writer.
Can anyone tell me how to get to letruns.com? I can't find it anywhere. I want to see the thread the article was referring to.
letruns.com is a pretty harmless typo.
I once accidentally went to letsrub.com ... not pretty.
From GF himself:
I really don't have anything witty and sarcastic to say. German made me look like a fool back in 2005 and I've been a fan ever since.
Good luck. Central Valley Power!

This is what I'm talking about.
Very cool. Thanks, Coach B! I've always been rooting for German as well.
I think German Fernandez is going to reach Jason Rexing status.
Is that the same Matt McCue that walked onto Colorado and wrote "An Honorable Run"? If so, I loved the book up until now. I can see that is is actually kind of a jerk.
