Freshman year he didn't run XC and only ran indoor for track. In 3 meets he went:
Jan 12th - 49.5 400m and 4:25 mile
Feb 2nd - 1:51.7 800m
Feb 16th - 1:59.5 800m and 4:27 mile
Doesn't run outdoor at all.
Sophomore year he doesn't run XC. And so far has not done anything or had any updates as to when he will be racing again. Does anyone know what's going on? Is he injured?
Another Brosnan burnout! Million dollar legs and lungs, 10 cent head. Clearly cannot cope with not being the top dog. It’s also rumored that he struggles with NAU’s academic rigor.

This actually makes Brosnan look like the man. Aaron Sahlman barely ran mileage and took more time off than all the other Newbury Park athletes. Some think this means Aaron had a higher ceiling but it turns out to be the opposite.

I had a good friend who competed and hung out at Brooks PR with Aaron. He said Aaron has some deep issues and said he hated running and didn’t care if he ran in college. He also said he ran 24-30 miles a week.
Some people are not meant to run in college and they belong somewhere else. Competitive running was just not for him. It looks like he had a great high school career and if that’s all he does then who really cares. Not everyone want to be the best NCAA runner

It would be nice if he just came out and said this so we wouldn't keep having a new thread pop up every few months asking about him. He's an interesting character with an interesting story. Even if he's a very private person, a little news from him would probably give him more privacy.

…and he is still listed on the roster
And yet he won’t run for them. Just like Liam Anderson. He’s moved on mentally

Except Liam Anderson actually ran for Stanford lol.
Yes, but Liam didn’t care and either does Aaron. They both are and were checked out and that’s ok. Why does every kid that runs fast in high school have to want to be a college star.
he had an IT band injury in high school - even for a hobby jogger they can flare up and set you back, but with the amount of mileage they do at NAU he has to be super careful. wouldn't surprise me if they shut him down completely for a year and now he's just trying to slowly build up his mileage. he might be a long ways from being able to compete for them.

Aaron Sahlman never has a IT injury he made that up. Aaron his senior year said he tore his IT and raced on it a few weeks later. This is what he does

I agree, let the kid move on. Who cares if he’s a bad student or has issues. Let him move on already.

I agree with you and think it is fine if he wants to move on with his life. But as the NXN champion and a "public persona" in the running community, it would be nice/normal to just let his fans know what is up. It isn't like people are hounding him or hating on him, we just are curious.
Can totally understand if Aaron isn't feeling running anymore
Whether people think his injuries were bad or not, or even real or not, sometimes you just get burnt out and being good at something isn't nearly enough motivation if you don't actually love that thing
That being said, I've always thought Aaron would be an even better cyclist than a runner based on his bodytype. Granted he would have to love it and put in way more time than he ever did as a runner so it's very unlikely to happen, of course.
Feel the same way about the Young twins, they look like elite cyclists to me

He never wanted to be a “public persona.” He’s not the one with a YouTube channel. it’s not his responsibility to keep random people on the internet up to date with his personal life
