Was supposed to run NYC, supposedly planned on Fukuoka instead. Haven't heard from him since but he's still in Portland.
I think he is still in Portland, but I believe, both he and Nelson were dropped by Nike.
I think Bairu is hurt.

Yes, I saw him on the berm last weekend with Solinsky and Teg.

That's not right at least as to Bairu. Bairu's twitter talks about training at Nike and is full of Nike stuff.

He's in my pocket
simon withdrew from the national XC team claiming an injury. He might still be dealing with the injury.
Just saw his retirement announcement from two months ago on instagram. Really too bad it never worked out for him, he was a real talent.

Bummer. Not a lot of 2x NCAA XC champs I would guess.
