Your powers of deductive reasoning are truly fascinating.

Hopping on a thread about the two fastest women in the nation and immediately assuming that those following said women have "creepy" motives for doing so might just say more about you than about your targets.

If we're going to take women's sports seriously and follow them like we follow men's sports, taking them as equal athletes within their own gender, then there isn't anything wrong with doing so. What's wrong is the sick and obsessive attention shown by a handful of posters at most to one female runner throughout her high school and college years, obsessiveness that leads to charging her competition with doping. Now, that is truly sick and creepy.

Valby didn't make an early move at Regionals. She jogged through the first mile around 5:13 to 5:20 and then took off.

Schumacher acknowledges the prescriptions Dr. Brown was handing out but feigns ignorance, which is his go to move.
That is the UF coach.
Wow, hmm that’s some stuff there. Who knows this? Let’s take these one by one; you said:
(1) UF hired Chris Solinsky,…At BTC he was doping to the gills to break the AR and to become the only non-African runner to sub-27.
(2) he was a patient of Nike's doping doctor, Dr. Jeffrey Brown. Dr. Brown nominally prescribed thyroid medications, but in fact these were precursors for steroids, HGH and EPO.
Can you provide some more info on how you know that Chris Solinsky was “doping to the gills” in point (1)? And what do you mean by “precursors for” in point (2)?

There was a book about it. But in the interest of fairness Solinsky never tested positive and Dr. Brown, although he received a doping ban, never publicly admitted exactly what he was doing. It is all a curious web.
In answer to my questions about (1) Solinsky was doped to the gills, and (2) Dr. Brown’s thyroid prescriptions were precursors(?) to EPO and HGH, you’re saying this is all documented in a book? What is the title of that book?

Maybe this could all be in your imagination?While I await you to name the book, I found this quote from an old LRC article:
Pieter Langerhorst, agent and husband of pro runner Lornah Kiplagat, said, “Athletes who use thyroid put their health at risk, even put their lives in jeopardy. This is Russian roulette. The exact risks are indeed not exposed, but I spoke to doctors who said that if you stop using the stuff everything runs away. Therefore it is very frightening.”
Who knows? Based on what Solinsky has seen in the sport, maybe he advises his athletes to stay away from the stuff.

Suspecting that a given runner may be doping - and, yes, it does occur at college level - has nothing to do with any other runner, as much as some of you are trying to make it so.
