you imbecile, I got a stress fracture from running 100 mpw mostly on concrete sidewalks. I have since switched to more asphalt and mixed in some sure footing trails, along with enough crete.

I saw a runnersworld video of him in New York last month. He said, "I want the American record in the 10K. I've still got a sub 13:00 5K left in me."
Is he just fantasizing now? Adam Goucher is one of my favorite runners but he's had a mediocre year and he's old.
Is he done?
Right ON! i've replied to a few of concrete runnners posts, and told all that you gotta keep it on the 'Phalt.

Thats where its at
Exactly; you gotta love these races with big time 'American only' prize money. They do a great job of encouraging people like Culpepper and maybe now Goucher. American only money should be like 1-2K tops; just enough to help guys buy some new shoes, some extra calories of food, and travel to their next race, while they aspire to beat Africans.

maybe he is past his prime, maybe not; but I think he realizes that he will never be in the last 2 laps of a world class 5 or 10k, no matter what he does. A hard reality when he looks at the talent coming out of east african countries. However, he could become 'Tim Culpepper' and cherrypick races for prize money the next few years and do pretty well. If healthy, he is still one of our top 5 or so runners, for whatever that is worth.
I agree 100%. I also believe that no race should be allowed to give away prize money greater than $1000 without also having drug testing.
