. We'll have them on letsrun.com soon.
However, I couldn't resist bringing Nick Symmonds comments to you:
Nick Symmonds said he may have a beer, a cheeseburger, and a walk on Pre's trail before the final.
Good for him. Glad he's got my diet.
Gotta love it!
ZOMG HES LIKE SO CRAYZEE!!!111!!!
Wejo, why are you so much cooler than Rojo?
thats bc he is teh cool and faster twin like myself lol
It will be cooler if he does it just minutes before the final!
And before he knows it he's Alan Webb!
Symmonds wishes he was in the same league as a true reckless warrior like Fam. We need more men like Fam.

Hahaha excellent
I hope he loses and throws up and fails and gets spiked and dies there without dignity on the track
like omfg if he puts tobasco sauce on that burger he will be LEGEND
Would he DQed if he held them in each hand during the race?
Take it easy there, Maggie. Just focus on your own race and let it go.

Boss.
Why are runners idolized for swerving off-course? Granted, Nick was kidding, but now he's praised. When Gabe Jennings dropped out of Stanford and rode his bike to Brazil, a huge thread praised him. Gabe often borrowed money from family, friends- as did Fam, who's also a hero. But when a family man is super competitive (Webb), then something's wong with him. Webb's not begging others for money.
What I don't understand, Symmonds' father is a vascular surgeon. Assuming he is still practicing and in contact with Nick, why is he so desperate for money? I understand you want to make it on your own, but I'm sure his family would foot his (pending) Olympic bill since it is quite an accomplishment and the sport pays poorly. It comes off more as needy for attention. At least he has a major primary sponsor.

What a dumb ass statement. You don't know sh*t about the guys real life family situation, the insides and outs.
Until you have walked a mile in someone else's shoes you ought to stfu. What a stupid, stupid, stupid comment.
What is this, TMZ?
He's be much cooler if he ran the final with a burger in one hand and a cold Coors Lite in the other.
