And regarding Rupp...athletes have spoiled their careers by doing stupid things like running just to pacify others. Rupp has accomplished some amazing things and he is still a young guy with lots of records in front of him so long as he continues to take care of himself and not be pushed into things by selfish fools like those who post the negative crap here.
Nobody's pushing rupp to do anything, he is (ostensibly) an adult who can chose for himself (or let salazar do it for him). What exactly defines a professional athlete? Professional runner?
I guess rupp gets paid to do whatever he feels like. That this is good enough for anybody is pretty sad. The reality is that actions like these in ANY professional sphere amount to a joke.
If I were Solinsky I'd stay far away from rupp/salazar.
