He is a piece of shit. I saw him at the armory at one of the meets my college team competed at, and as we were doing strides before an 800 I tried to give him a high five, like most distance runners do, he looked at my hand and just looked away. Ever since I have hoped for the demis of Andrews.

Yeah, ever since she broke up with ashton kutcher, i was hoping she'd rebound with andrews too.

what a catch! and italian too!

The kid really needs to re-examine his diet and lifestyle.

Are his estrogen levels too high? Is he getting enough sleep? Is he lifting weights like every good 800m runner should?

These are the questions he needs to ask himself.

Says the 2:15 800m runner. ^^^^^^^^

Guys, you're all missing the key point here -- the 800m really hurts, sometimes you're just not in the mood. Running 51-53 is annoying. 54-54 is much more comfortable

I was there, was very disappointed. Indeed lost to a bunch of no-namers.

Hi guys. Thanks for the constructive criticism. Am digesting all of it. I have great respect for Leo. Please don't say he is overrated. He is great runner and nice guy to boot. I am not sure why my running not going to well. But I am still young. I am considering moving up to the 5,000 meters. What do you think about that? I just don't feel my legs have the zip they used to have. Anways, please take care!

I find it interesting these two statements are in the same paragraph.

This is a weird post. I ran more 1500s than 800s, but never went around high-fiving people before races. During my warm-up and strides, I just wanted to be left alone to get my head in the right place. But maybe I'm a piece of shit too.

Not saying that Andrews should lose to him but Romaniw is the fourth fastest collegian this year behind only Greer, Loxsom and Murray.

RA won ncaas as a freshman... A guy with the 4th fastest time in the NCAA shouldnt be any concern for RA

Maybe he couldn't see your hand over his eyebrows.

Speaking of fast collegiate times, where was Romaniw on the radar back when he was at Dartmouth? (Now running for Guelph)

You tell us, since apparently you're keeping count.

Regardless of what is going on, why the hell is he running so poorly. he has the same coach. Regardless of lifestyle he should not be running this bad. His pr is 144! He should deff opt out of the 800 at USA's because he will get destroyed. He might get destroyed in the 1500 as we have seen nothin impressive in that sense either. Maybe Vig has some secret master plan but Im not seeing it.

And why the hell would he stay in New Jersey. Get out to Cali/Oregon or Arizona.
