That's definitely him. Very sad story.
Holy S&$@!!!!!
It is him.
Very sad.
Guy was watching too much Breaking Bad.
Not to quibble but at the end I guess his lawyer says "his was a rare talent," and I am thinking, what talent of his was rare? It was not running, certainly...
Remind me, was he the treadmill world record attempt guy?

He ran 1:08 for half marathon, better than 99.9% of this board. It's a time that will win the majority of races everywhere.
He was a talented runner.

I could have jogged that time...
Pirate cat gun girl must be very disappointed now
We had some fun with him here, but man, this is really sad.
Let's hope he comes out the other end of this OK and can rebuild his life.
It'll make a great story when Moen breaks the treadmill marathon WR while in prison.
Maybe he started using drugs after his brothers suicide or maybe he started after googling himself and seeing how he was made fun of on letsrun. In some way, maybe just a little, I'd like to think letsrun is partly responsible for Brandon's drug problems.

You are an idiot.
If a few people making relatively harmless jokes on the internet can be partially blamed for his drug problem, then why don't more people go this route? I mean, by your logic Galen Rupp should be prostituting himself in an alley somewhere in exchange for meth.

When he does, he must do it in high tube socks with an old fashioned tick tick stopwatch in his hand. When he breaks the treadmill WR he must throw the stopwatch against the wall of the prison.
