Didn’t look like a dirty move to me. Just a couple guys finishing on empty and getting tangled up. Hitting “stop” on his watch instead of giving a “you ok?” or “sorry!” was a no class move though.

Not sure what you’re talking about. I was in this race(3rd place) and Jack Huber(guy who got cut off) is my training partner and friend from Bethlehem high school. Jack is not that type of runner and was just trying to kick this guy down. He has a great kick but this Xavier guy decided to take things into his own hands because he was going to get kicked down. Whole race the guy was acting weird and looking behind him a lot.

What? You stay on your line and run straight. You don't move right to cut off the guy. If you are faster and deserve to win you prove it with the better kick.

What a moron. He has to go down as the most douche in history of turkey trot.
Perhaps the mythical 49-yr-old male who pounded his fist on the table after coming in 2nd to the Kenyan woman, has finally been dethroned?

Bro I can’t even watch that video. It’s disgusting to watch. I was in the race(Cameron Davis)(1 second in front of this nonsense). It’s blatant. Guy was looking all anxious the entire race(looking around a ton) and pulled a dirty move to secure his place.

Stupid human tricks.
I mean, ALMOST became a human bowling pin but didn’t. What is she supposed to do after not actually being hurt? Scream in fake pain anyway?

The race organizers, sponsors, and the city are totally liable here. Why would they allow the two obstructions (extending from the fencing in the left) right before the finish line to trip people up? I bet they fixed it immediately after this fall.

Dbag move at a freakin’ turkey trot. Ex-college club runner, ‘nuff said. One of those dudes who just can’t quite get over not making a D1 squad & had to settle for college club(nothing wrong w/college club, but definitely crossed paths w/a niche of dudes w/angst & chip on their shoulders about not having run D1).

Of course this ass hat lives in DC and makes 'earns' his keep on the taxpayer dime... With gentlemanly folks like this 'consulting' the government it is no surprise how messed up everything is. Sad world where this kind of scum would be met with more disincentives for removing pronouns from his email signature than he would for pulling this seriously dangerous move at a road race. #progress
It it 'makes' or 'earns'? Make / earn up your mind!
Classic LRC shi*posting. Ain't nothing to do with his employer. Cancel culture already out of control. What's next? JP Morgan Chase come to suspend his checking account? Save that for def-jam3 and kanadian big-rig sit-in.
Good to see him publicly shamed, but the race director / local law enforcement should take the appropriate action already. There is precedent for prosecution when the type of contact isn't a forseeable part of the sport!85 -
That watch stop was cringe lol. This is absolutely hilarious. Imagine being the dude about to dust this dude to take 4th only to get hip checked into the barrier like a hockey game. Lol

For the people who don't think this was a dirty move, how often do you mug people and justify it?
