Pretty basic, he identifies as a high schooler. Why all the hate?
--> It's sad and scary, someone that old and with that running background, all those years... he obviously didn't warm up properly . Such a bad example for those impressionable cisyoung men. The long term damage is done, this will haunt them the rest of their lives. His coach should be investigated and perhaps banned or canceled altogether .
No. They are both making bank on social media. And they made a bunch from their buddies. This guy will be on the circuit next summer. Mark my words. You will watch every race that he competes in and the race organizers will use him to advertise every event.
People must have known that something was wrong during the race. When our state meet came through, I knew everyone in the top 15 or so, just from seeing results throughout the year. This guy was such an outlier, he should have been spotted by knowledgeable fans.
He had to cancel his social media accounts due to the negative backlash. His coach should dump him if he hasn’t already. Meet directors will spurn this clown like he has the plague.
Yes, shut down his social media due to being overwhelmed. But all publicity is good pubilcity. His name is everywhere. He became a legend overnight. You will be shocked. Remember all of the stop pre stuff? He had many haters.
It is incorrect that he did anything illegal. You can wear your old high school singlet. You can go on the race course. Thousands of people were on the course at the meet. Thousands of people wear old high school gear. Trying to ruin his life over a silly stunt is not good. Why would you want to do this?
Thousand of adults do not dress up as school boys and illegally trespass onto the playing field of a boys’ sporting event and compete against them. What’s wrong with you Brendan?
