Galen Rupp and Mo Farah: A DAY IN PICTURES

#11- Mo working lane 0 hard.

Check out #12. Even their kid fans are required to wear Nike. Their contracts must be insane!

Great feature. Thanks.

As a teacher, if these two showed up and started a workout on our track, I would bring my class(es) outside for as long as they were still there, to "educate" them about Olympic level athletes.

Surprise, surprise. A lazy-ass government employee who wants to ditch work under the guise of learning something. How lucky are the kids? No wonder our youth is doomed. Have a nice 3 months paid vacation this summer.

awesome workouts. fun.

hey they're even boxing. why not?

with modest defensive technique development and a 180 bench press, you better run and hide, rupp-haters.

Haha. Don't get me wrong, Rupp is the man on the track. Great competitor, and I have the utmost respect for him as an athlete.

But if in some hypothetical situation I was about to be physically confronted by Galen Rupp, I don't think I'd bat an eye.

What if in reality, farah and rupp dislike each other and put up a smilie front to make us like their "playful" ways.

This photo shoot is amazing to see but it is also ripe for parady.

What's with the unbalanced 1-plate lift farahs doing? These guys are defying the laws of common physics.

mo's jacket in #7 is sweet. anyone know where to buy it?

found that jacket for $70 http://www.sportsauthority.com/product/index.jsp?productId=12482491&mr%3AtrackingCode=2ED96855-F3FD-E111-BA78-001B21631C34&mr%3AreferralID=NA&mr%3Afilter=53312026311&mr%3AadType=pla&mr%3Aad=27873788151&mr%3Amatch&mr%3Akeyword&%7Bcopy%3Aiq_id%7D&%7Bcopy%3Acamp%7D

After seeing photos 18 and 20, I would not mess with Rupp anymore, guys.

but mo...not so much

Mo would just trip you with one gold medal, then beat you over the head with his other gold medal.

This photo shoot is a thinly veiled PR attempt in the face of the hormone therapy backlash for the Wall Street Journal article. Domestic and international distance coaches, athletes, national media, sporting internet outlets are all now aware of this group's use of hormone therapy as a PED. The WADA has been notified, and this treatment will eventually be banned.

Pic 23, Rupp looks like he is seriously considering beaning Mo with that ball, and is pic 24 the aftermath?

In photos 8, 9, and 10, it looks like Mo was letting Rupp lead and then outkicked him at the end. Just like the Olympics.

Interesting photos though.

Niiiiiiice!

Surprise surprise, someone thinks they understand how teachers are paid when in fact they are clueless. Teachers can elect to have their pay spread across 12 months, They DO NOT get paid for summer vacation.

I also always laugh when folks get so judgmental of teachers and other employees. Cuz you know, no one else is never unproductive at some point during a workday once in a while.
