Lone wolf Scott Fauble: ready to podium at NYCM? [Video]

Is he injured or is that just how he runs?

He looked more fit heading into Boston.

Also, he ripped Cole Hocker on Twitter after the first round of the 1500.

Yeah, I'm a bit confused. His arm movement is strange. And overall he looks like he's hobbling.

Yeah, I also noticed the jerky upper body throughout this "easy run." Could be a really tight sacrum or something.

Has he run 2:08 - if not I am not interested in him. We don't need anymore slow pokes.

He has — 2:08:52 in Boston.

Here he is in a tempo run from 2018. His arms are flailing around, but unlike in the video posted here they're pretty much working in concert.

in the comments someone was like 'is he limping?' and the response was 'he's always had this gait, it's more accentuated when running slower paces'. but these were my thoughts as well - 'he looks hurt or at least like he's hurting'.

Yeah I think the thing that seems weird is his arms/legs seemingly doing different things. His right arm is doing a windmill and his left is doing a little back-and-forth.

As a result it looks like his left leg is dragging along his right leg as he's getting more power from his right side of his body propelling his stride to his left. I guess hopefully this is just how he runs at slow paces.

Scott Fauble is a tool. There is a reason he always trains alone.

Fischer looks much smoother tho I'd bet Fauble beats him handily in NYC

Your sacrum is a bone or, rather, a collection of fused bones that should not move. I hope to god I have a tight sacrum. If you want to discuss medical matters you should study medicine, not read a bunch of garbage on the internet.

His legs track further apart now than they did in 2018. He also 'bobs' uneven. He's running now like a 65-year-old man.

Guy, this is a dumb message board and not a doctor's office or med school. I'm obvi talking about the muscles in that area of the back.

the sacrum has 2 major joints, SI joints, and they are clasified as "ampiarthrotic joints", meaning that they dont really move a lot but some times they do. that is how you get SI joint disfunction. There are multiple ligaments and muslces that attatch to the sacrum, and tightness in any of those could mess with the alignment of the sacrum itself.

Maybe he won't be joining a training group again, but I would not be surprised if JC and Fauble announce a new sponsorship deal the Friday before NYC.

Thought this same thing. Looks uncomfortable, but hopefully it's just the internet overanalyzing or the way he adjusts at slower paces.

Fischer doesn't look smooth at all

he looks like old Rocky hitting the bag

Someone with a form like that running a 2:08 makes me question if it even matters. Holy smokes what a bad form. Looks like he is stirring a big pot of porridge while he is running.
