David Roche GOES HOME DEVASTATED from Western States

Seek help, David

My main takeaway from all the Claudeposting is that AI prose is incredibly tiresome and irritating to read.

Megs first noticed him on a Tuesday, when the AC broke and the basement gym became a furnace. He was the guy who never complained, just kept grinding through his sets.
“You’re still here,” she said, wiping sweat from her forehead.
“Wouldn’t be anywhere else,” he replied, racking his dumbbells. “I’m Dave.”
They fell into an easy rhythm after that. She’d start at 6 AM for her ride; he’d be there, already warming up. They’d nod, exchange the occasional tip on form, share the single treadmill. The space was bare-bones—concrete floors, treadmill, stationary bike, mismatched weights—but it was theirs.
One morning, mid-workout, nature called urgently for Megs. She glanced toward the door, calculating the sprint to the bathroom upstairs, the pain of seeing the kids.
“Just use the bucket,” Dave said, not looking up from his treadmill display. “Door locks. We’re all adults here.”
She hesitated, then laughed. “You’re serious?”
“Deadly. Can’t lose your mojo walking upstairs and seeing the fam.”
It became their secret—the ridiculous intimacy of two people too committed to their training to care about conventional boundaries. They’d turn away, crank the music, respect the unspoken protocol.
“Hand me a Spring Energy gel?” she’d ask between sets.
He’d toss one over. “Only if it’s from The Feed.”
Months passed. The workouts intensified. So did everything else—the way his hand would steady her bar during bench pressed, the way she’d time her intervals to match his so they could talk. They shared protein shakes, training philosophies, and eventually, one dawn after a particularly brutal repeat day, a kiss against the wahoo trainer.
“This is insane,” she whispered.
“What, falling for someone who’s seen you at your worst and stayed anyway?” He grinned. “Seems pretty sane to me.”
They trained together for years after that. Got married in the gym, actually, treadmill in the background, their friends laughing about the legendary bucket that somehow symbolized their complete lack of pretense with each other.
At the reception, Dave raised his glass. “To Megs—who taught me that love isn’t about perfection. It’s about finding someone willing to share the grind, The Feed, the Spring Energy gels, and yes, even the damn bucket. Someone who shows up, every single day.”
She kissed him as everyone cheered.
They never did get that AC fixed.

AI writing has no soul. It is cold. Isn't this the exact opposite of what David wants to project?

Who says I'm spending a lot of energy? Is it that hard to see the difference between some one-off posts and an average of 6 posts per week for 10 months?

Btw, nice work keeping up your average. Thinking we should have a Runforthehillz's Unhinged Obsession with the Roches Tracker. How does this look?

This is true. Imagine listening to an hour and a half podcast on someone you hate. Imagine watching David’s incredibly tedious YouTube videos. I know I don’t because I don’t watch David’s videos. Hate watching David is a serious waste of time. His material has no consequence to any of our lives. I advise all of you to be like me. Don’t watch David. This obsession is insane.

This guy thinks I care about how much I post. I don’t care bro. You seem to though!

This guy is basically a stalker

If you didn’t care why do you reply?

Oh, I think you do. You never let a comment go by.

By "this guy" I assume you mean the guy that posts random cr-p about a "run influencer" an average of 6x per week 44 weeks and counting? Or the guy who is calling out the bizarre stalker? It's the former in any sane world.

To keep my post count up

Quit stalking me freak

Yes.

And why, after 235 posts, would you ever think they'd stop now? Because you told them to?

David and Megan better get a good security system because runforthehillz is a disturbing man.

They’re safe - ain’t no one getting by me
