Whenever he speaks about training, imagine a big asterisk after each sentence. All of his efforts are altered by his shady past. His “TUE” status for asthma and thyroid meds cancel out every record, medal, and/or accomplishment.
His association with Salazar puts an exclamation point after that asterisk.

Galen has no chance to win. Galen is now a 2:07 marathoner at his absolute best with great conditions. Galen will certainly not break 2:09 at Chicago.

Galen with the HOT TAKE @ 22:00-23:30
Re:Great athletes’ mentality OVER physicality
lol he's so full of **** when he says that he doesn't remember what Kipchoge said to him during the Olympic Marathon but somehow remembers that it was something nice
"He might've been asking if I wanted to take the lead .. or something"
"He was really nice to me after the race"
Well yea, of course he was nice AFTER HE WON
rupp def knows what to say and has his guard up during interviews, but feel like this was him at his most genuine. idk, i havent heard too many interviews with him...comes off as a decent guy imo. also, kipchoge does seem like the nicest man ever so not sure what would be surprising about that.
Has never been caught doping. Less of his teammates have been busted for doping than BTC.
lol when he said he trains in structure triax. Been a while since it was called that.

Same argument as Lance Armstrong…. He never failed a drug test. Lol
His lifelong coach has always been suspect and was finally caught and banned for life. Testosterone, syringes, carnitine, etc. He was finally outsmarted……
So what are the odds that his star pupil trained totally clean all these years ?
About the same as a top notch track athlete being stricken with asthma and a thyroid problem.

Of course he could win, wouldn't really be surprising. I'll say he takes second in 2:08:45.

Cool story bro.
He's still the best White US runner today.
He probably treated Rupp like the hobby jogger he is and asked him if he ad a good race and did he get his participation medal?

Convenient asthma meds, illegal testosterone, illegally administered carnitine does not know color.
