He’s taking some serious heat in his Instagram comments, finally!
Looking at his page, he’s almost as annoying as Clor.
Dude ran the race shirtless. I was in wave one and didn’t see a single runner other than him do that. Not only that but he filmed himself running the last 100m and narrated it. I had an IPhone too. Not once during the race did I feel the need to pull it out.
As for Clor, yesterday was the biggest race in the country and not a word about it or any congrats to the runners from Liz. It was all about her, her stupid run, her ridiculous unathletic stride and another of her 850 outfits. What a pathologically self absorbed a-hole.

Thomas separates from ex-wife 2 (C.S.) and in his dramatic fashion posts a picture taken w/ self-timer with him looking very pensive and staring out of the window, back to the camera, from an empty apartment. Caption: "a different perspective"
C.S., who is now remarried, to ANOTHER Thomas (Tom). Posts a photo of new husband with him looking very pensive and staring out toward the lake. Caption: "a change of perspective"

They kill her on blogsnark. Greg is good but not as fast as her. Both NoVa DINKs with great jobs. Their lives are all about running and nothing else, based on her public posts.

Props to OP for has turned out to be an extremely prescient Thread:
Influencer Matt Choi Disqualified From New York City Marathon
Physical therapist and running coach Göran Winblad discusses short-term social media running videos. Unsure if by selection or coincidence, but the last video he breaks down came from Bare Performance Nutrition influencer Nico Felich, who has been recently been featured in some videos of influencers discussed here.
Were the NYC Marathon shakeout runs small this year or were they bigger? Seemed a little smaller. Have people grown tired of shoetubers.
It’s mainly running clubs here and I believe Nike has one as well. Nobody cares about you tubers.
Sounds like you didn't accidentally pass by columbus circle in the days leading up to the race.
These f*ckers need to realize these are residential neighborhoods, people live here, people would like to go to whole foods without passing through hordes of douchebags acting like they own sidewalk

In his most recent podcast episode "IMO 11 - The Matt Choi saga", from 41:15 onwards Matt has just gone on a 20min story-telling spiel about the Israel-IG stories, the IDF, Chi Police, leaving(getting kicked out of) his local running club, fall out with Floberg, therunningeffect emailing pros about him, the LR threads, the whole story..
I know many people wont be bothered enough to listen to it, but I had it on whilst I was making dinner and it was an absolutely phenomenal listen: from the self-victimisation, to leaving out all the things he did wrong, to lying about certain bits of the story... I don't even want to recap it, you have to hear it for yourself.
If anyone wasnt convinced the man is a serious head-case, then this will surely help you get there.

He had a fallout with Floberg of all people? There seem to be certain people on this message board that especially have it out for Fox, but how does this guy seemingly burn bridges with literally everyone he collaborates with???

I didn’t. I’m on the eastside. Was it Influencer groups?
Leading up to the marathon, you also have a lot of international groups here. Italy, in particular always has a lot of runners in the race
They’re basically clueless tourists. Not malicious, just incompetent.

Oh man was that satisfying seeing him call out that guy! I've made a few posts on here with Nico in mind because, to me, he's a perfect embodiment of what is wrong with a running influencer. He's a young, generally fit/athletic guy with limited running background who is living off his athletic background and "beginner gains" from focusing on running for the first time. It's also hilarious to me that he would give running form advice when he has some of the least visually appealing running form you can see, even amongst the influencer crowd, as he shuffles along to his sub 3 glory. Seeing the heel strike clip was the cherry on top because that is classic influencer, talk the talk and peddle all this advice, meanwhile you don't actually follow any of it.
Matt is also skilled at inventing stories that no one has claimed to have happened, which he then debunks, causing people to doubt other claims. He said on a podcast that it's alleged he committed a crime in Finland, which would prevent him from traveling there again, even though no one has ever made such an accusation. Then he debunks that claim, since he's apparently traveling there next year. In other words, he feeds his listeners false rumors that he can easily disprove, positioning himself as the victim.
Apparently, Floberg had been reading this forum, which is why he distanced himself. It seems that Floberg is very sensitive to reading things about himself and his partners.

Wow, Matt Fox is delusional. I gave it a listen and then went back and read the comments he made before. He tries to paint this picture that he is sweet, understanding and that people just have it out for him.
I genuinely think he is a narcissistic psychopath. He has a fallout with everyone, I wonder how long it will take for him to sabotage his own marriage
Just listened to the last 20 mins of that podcast. Highly recommend everyone go listen to it. Very easy to throw on during the work day.
I thought it was hilarious how he mentioned that him and Eric Floberg are friends again, all cool. He then proceeds to talk about how much he hated Floberg's initial response after reading LetsRun. So much so that he contemplated whether he still wants to live in Chicago or not. Matt talked about how friendly he was to Floberg (pacing him in Boston and taking videos for him for free), but how ridiculous he found it that Floberg would distance himself without asking Matt about the truth. He knows that Floberg reads these forums and will know that he was talking bad about him.
I would never ever talk about my friends in a negative light on such a highly public space like a podcast.

Residential....sucka please. You want sympathy for people who live on CPW, by Lincoln Center, and the like? Protests and vagrants are 100x the issue the shakeouts were.
The entrance to WF was in no way impeded. And regarding people owning the sidewalk....thats basically 97% of all pedestrians.
