LRC Note. Here is our article on the matter
Alberto has been banned for life. Good luck Alberto. You were an inspiration as a runner. It is too bad how your coaching career ended.
Bummer, I was a big fan of the guy.
Based on what
Ask Salazar to furnish the investigative report. He's got that report as do the claimants against him.
I am confident Alberto tiptoed the gray zone area for gimmicks & drugs to get ahead of the game.
But this sexual misconduct charge is ridiculous.
Yikes!

Supposition and hearsay.
What exactly was the "sexual misconduct" part of it?

you don't have to be a fan of Salazar to realize the implications of equating comments about an athlete's weight to sexual harassment.
The system is woke and broke.

So calling a fat girl fat is now considered sexual harrassment? Is that what this is about?

Like every other thread on this topic, the lemmings will come out to praise their scumbag cheat of an abusive coach.

Perhaps but my praise for him concerned his running career. Intelligent people possess the ability to analyze with nuance. Alberto was as tenacious a competitor as you will find. Maybe that was his Achilles heel as a coach. The man is obviously far from perfect.

He's been constantly ripped for everything else on LR but when it comes to accusations from his female runners, he's suddenly a victim. In general, LR hates all women besides Sara Hall.

This is terrible. Alberto got the rawest of raw dog deals. I hope Mary bloody Cain and the rest of her ilk are happy. They've ruined the life of a living legend. Alberto knew how to walk the edge and get the most out of everyone, just barely within the rules. That was too much for the Dark Powers and now he's been basically sent to prison. I cry for you, all of you.
Unfortunate and the fact that the details are confidential lends one just to speculate. I have a feeling that Sal must have alienated a lot of people along the way.
