i'm a huge nick symmonds fan...very entertaining, to say the least. "i look at my legs and think, there's no way these short legs are going to ever set another pb....I look at rudisha, he's 6 foot 3 and a masai warrior. i'm a pice of $*!t."

Was gonna say "Dudes a baller" but that doesn't do him justice. Seriously the coolest personality in track today, possibly one of the best all time. The Prefontaine of our current time. Prefontaine embodied 70's running the way Symmonds embodies the best of 2010's running.
Isn't he a founding member of the Institute of General Ballerness?
Very rewarding to see that there are true track fans out there who recognize a special talent like Nick Symmonds.
I can;t believe anyone would not be a fan of that guy.
Gotta agree. Symmonds has gotta be one of the best things to happen to middle and long distance track in a looong time. Total bada$$
I really hope he chases the American record next summer
Where's this quote come from? Link?
I was not aware of that quote.
Often I have wondered how anyone with short legs like those of Symmonds could be so f__king good. That guy is a piece of work.
Seriously, it's time to take a stop back, and look objectively at all that is Nick Symmonds and what he's done on and off the track since his D3 days.
He's awesome.

What do short legs have to do with anything?
How tall is he?
The quote is from the trailer for his interview today on flotrack. Of course you have to pay for the interview. Pay for an interview, NOT.
5'9.5"
completely average joe.

Unattached, nothing at all.

short legs = short stride length
most 1:41's and all 1:40's were by tall people with the proud strides of elven warriors. Hairy dwarves and furry little hobbits with good foot speed can pitter-patter their way to 1:43 sometimes.
all your beloved sub 42 guys are dirty .
rudisha must be up there with bolt on the
clean as saint card with fanboys when obvious that dirty as hell .
just as covert as coe before him .
started with blood doping/steroid combo
to epo to more up todate peds.
gw501516 was great at what did ,and throw in igf-1 lr3
and s4 ,helping your long legged athletes even more ,
so can pitter patter more like short guts .and you got your record .
kenyans at moment are dirty out and out ,1500m guy
on same combo bar gw50 .
should be testing the bloods from london as one of
dirtiest 800m races ever .
but anybody who used gw50 has been told that wont be tested
for just dont use in future .
where was rudisha this season ,
now that gw50 off the cards .
have to make do with igf-1 /s4
and low 42, s
like ethopian.
there will be newer endurance drugs online
in afew years just as good as gw but have to wait .
Stickler: Rudisha is a member of the Kalenjin people, not the Masai. But yeah, Symmonds is a baller. I get a little tired of runners and other athletes trying to play the underdog card, but Symmonds plays that game better than most.
Symmonds gets the girls, great runner, great interviews, seems honest, need more like him
If Rudisha and so many others are using gw50, why aren't they all dying of cancer?
