Wow. Very good solo at LA
America is back!!
Wow- solo and on a rolling course: 943 feet up, 1169 feet down
Click click boom
Awesome
Wow, that wasn’t on my radar.
Looks like his high school PRs were 4:17.92 (1600) and 9:14.96 (3200).

This is wild. Richtman was at Montana State last year and ran 28:21 for 10k. He was 14th at the NCAA west regional and didn’t qualify for NCAA outdoors.
Debuted with a 2:10:47 at Twin Cities in October. Now he’s a 2:07 guy!
JGault,
This should be front page worthy!
Younger than Casey Clinger.
Hopefully he inspires some other young guys that will never be national contenders on the track but have a huge motor.
He’s on Strava. I’ve never seen a more unimpressive training log from a 2:07 guy. It almost seems fake lol. He runs solid mileage. Doesn’t look like many workouts and the workouts that he does do aren’t even anything crazy. Love to see it.
He might not post everything
He posts everything
Awesome performance!
Don't call it criticism, just some observations: somebody needs to reign this kid in. He needs to take his 10k PR down before trying another marathon. If he can go 27 low a few times, he should be able to run at least 2:05, maybe 2:04 or faster. Also, he looks a little 'flat' while running... Fix his form, there's another minute off the marathon.

Just to play devils advocate, maybe he’s doing something that works. And instead of following the above conventional American wisdom, he should keep doing what is working.

I can't stand Josh Cox. That is all.
My Brother was an over achiever. Olympics, all the other big meets. Medals and all.
His advice was "free your mind and your ass will follow"
That's the reason all these kids are booming. Its all mental.
Unlock your expectations and run.

No kidding. Just took a look and if you showed me his training log with no context and made me guess a time I’m not even sure what I’d say…maybe like 2:25??
