I read it last night. Interesting. He was pretty honest about the situation and implosion of the team. I still feel bad for the original coach. Total screw job.
*I'm not going to set the link here because of being banned previously for that, but you can find it by searching "Drew's Newsletter beehive" and then looking for the title.
I navigated away from the screen after the first couple pragraphs.
"A few weeks ago, Max McNerney, the best man at my wedding, and the media guy who told our team’s story to the world, texted me." - this to me sounds like a lot of M4M tension that I dont want to read about on a Friday morning before a holiday weekend.
Want to bring up Drew Hunter? Fine, let's talk about Drew Hunter.
Drew Hunter never was nor is going to be. His legacy is tainted due to abandoning his coach in completely immature fashion. Plain and simple, Tinman Elite without Tinman himself was destined for failure -- and cursed -- from the onset of the decision.
Drew Hunter is otherwise the definition of a washed up has been who peaked in high school. When your parents pass on reasonably good athletic genes and coach you from the time you are born the chances of success at the high school level increase dramatically. Hunter hit some major milestones but that was also a long time ago. He would be irrelevant in today's NCAA and therefore has fallen to irrelevance as a pro.
I dont want to ever read what Drew Hunter writes on his beehive blog again. He's Boulder trash.
Keep the main thing the main thing!!!! If you want to be fast that needs to be your focus.
Molly Huddle was my favorite for a long time, why? All she did was win races!!!! Show up run fast and back to work! No blogs, videos, changing and inspiring through social media.

She inspired through being FAST
I understand that, but curious why that same sentiment wasn't offered for Rupp. All the guy did was destroy, and focus his time away from running to his family.

There were some real differences, i.e. Rupp turning pro then backtracking to be eligible, living and training alone separate from the team while at UO, etc. Plus his association via choice of coach for most of his career.
The title could aptly describe how he showed last weekend up to his hometown race that his daddy won back in the day. A marathoner five weeks out from his last marathon dominated him so hard.
