Galen Has No CHANCE in Tokyo Olympic Marathon

Galen has a knack for wanting to let the other runners do the work for him. It is sometimes labeled as smart. It often is but Galen does not have the respect of true champions because he tries to use people to do the work for him. Galen got his comeuppance today from a man who is Galen’s superior in so many ways.

STFU

Wow you losers are sooooo smart, posting negative garbage about people who are so accomplished. It was so hard to predict a guy in his third games wouldn't medal. Go back to your mom's basement you POS.

Wow, he's triggered. I got the time and the placing both dead on. I got hocker's place dead on. That's not some broad "Rupp won't medal statement." I gave you the details. I delivered.

You didn't deliver at all. You guessed and still wasn't right.

Well the truth is something you, as an obsequious Galen fanboy, find utterly unpalatable. But when the true alpha males, the ones who can alter fate with their will, speak to someone like Galen, he shrivels up like a raisin. Do not blame the messenger.

Actually AP5000 guy did have it pretty close. Stop trying to imitate legendary posters.

You reek of insecurity and are the guy at parties who makes people want to leave early, if they still invite you?

How's your back feeling? Pat it a little too much, eh?

You and your AP5000 Buddy should hook up and give yourselves happy endings:):):):). Losers.

And yet you want to be me. Damn….I get it but please try to be yourself. You can never be the legend. Be yourself.

Galen is now at that point in his career where it is more about what he has done in the past. Galen has not been in his prime for several years now. When you look at him now, you see a runner who is no longer special even in the US. Yeah he was able to win in a weak field at the US Olympic Trials, but one can witness that he is no longer a great runner. He is closer to what Alberto Salazar was in 1984 than most want to admit. In 1984 Alberto ran 27:45 at Mount Sac and was starting to decline. Galen actually is a similar runner now. Expect a 12th place finish and about 2:15. This is reality and it is not Galen’s fault. Please do not be expecting more.

8th not 12th. 2:11 not 2:15. But don’t beat yourself up too badly, I’m sure you’re better at your day job.

Some guy is on another thread saying he's registering your name. Yikes for you

Galen has a history of running very well in hot races. Back in college he blitzed Nationals in Fayetteville by training on his treadmill with the thermostat up.

LA Trials 2016 (popped some pills from Salazar pre-race) and the Olympics (swapped ice hats) are other examples of smart strategies.

He’s a heat pro. Regardless of where he stands with his fitness/health, he will be heat ready.

Came here to post this. OP has no idea what they’re talking about.

Hi Phil. Eating crow again so soon after the Hocker race. Intelligence matters.

tbh, rupp did better than i thought. 2.11 in that heat and with a winning time of 2:8 isnt bad.

but

the point is that the guy was never in contention. an amazing number of idiots on here supported him and gave him stupid credit because he is american. how embarassing.

rupp and centro are flukes. they got lucky in shockingly poor events.

coleman is a drug cheat.

you have no individual golds in track.

i am not hating on you, i am just saying; wake up and smell the truth.
