"When Mary enters college and runs for her school Dr. Cain will probably be pleased some separation between Alberto and Mary is taking place. I have doubts the Salazar/Nike connection with Mary Cain and parents is all sweetness and light."
By Fall, 2014, Mary Cain and NOP will have split. Could even be this year.
Id rather see Cain sign with New Balance, they seem like a stand up group. Her father will make sure she gets a good Ivy education first though.
1) It is called the NIKE Oregon Project. If you want to be on NOP then you have to wear NIKE. I don't see a problem here.
2) You are way too excited over nothing of substance
I'm curious--does it take you long to make up such unsubstantiated, bizarre claims or does it come naturally? Try this--"I think they will split BECAUSE". That is, try giving a reason or two why you think it. Now, honestly, I don't think you've thought about the matter at all, but you get some kind of perverse kick in angering others. Gee, what a healthy way to live.

I don't get off on making people angry. It's more like having a roommate who always had a maid and watching him be a spoiled brat for months and months. And then one day, he has to do his own dishes because the maid disappeared. See that makes you happy, because it's almost like the world is a little fairer. The spoiled brats have to do work they don't like. They have to grow up. All these things make me happy.
here's a funny photo of her eating some kind of noodle at the track
You bet your a$$ it can. ;)

Actually, maybe this can turn into a positive.
Let's clear one thing up. Salazar is not an independent contractor. He is a full-time, long-time, employee of Nike. His cubicle is about 20 feet from the head of Nike track and running - John Capriotti but he doesn't even answer to Cap, uncle Phil gives Alberto an unlimited budget and free reign. This allows Alberto to have underwater treadmills and alterG's flown into remote places at half a million dollars a pop even when his athletes are only visiting someplace for 4-5 days!
If Alberto wanted to max out the Cain situation he should have Rowberry stay on the east coast and train daily with Mary Cain as she finishes her senior year. He can use his already in place video system to monitor Mary's workouts live but now with Shannon also.

This is a what without a why, as you have pointed out. You are welcome to call them unsubstantiated because I have not given you a why. You are welcome to call them bizarre. From your point of view they are. To jump to the conclusion they must, therefore, be "made up" is a stretch. This is not a court of law and I am not making a case for this. Either I am right or wrong. That is an example of the Law of the Excluded Middle.
"
My guess is Dr. Cain had a few sharp words with Alberto over that stunt and told Alberto to make damn sure Nike no longer would try to exploit his daughter"
-you're an idiot. stop with your ridiculous conjecture.
Did you not see Mary on Fox Sports 1 wearing Nike gear?
I wouldn't be so confident the Nike relationship ends soon.
She goes on national TV and wears Nike gear when she doesn't even have to. If the relationship was about to end she wouldn't be doing this.
Shannon will make a great training partner for Moser and Cain. I suspect Shannon is in the twlight of her career, which still makes her a solid world class athletes, but I don't expect any major break throughs.

sort of a new phenom - runners aren't retiring like they used to - who has retired lately? Any A-listers at all? I'm sure there is someone, but I can't think of it. Khadevis I suppose.
I wouldn't be surprised to see rowbury run for another 10 years - she is only 28 for pete's sake. you're right that odds are against big improvements, but you never know. Sometimes a new coach, a new stimulus makes a big difference.
Oregon Project just posted on their Twitter page that SR has joined the club. Now they have two sets of twins on the women side: Moser-Rowbury and Hasay-Erdmann. This is good for all of them.

How so? If you are referring to the actress, she has seen absolutely zero controversy within the tabloids and graduated from Harvard. Not exactly the pedigree of someone who might be labeled "batsh!t insane."
Oh, you mean exactly like Ted Kaczynski.

drama queen
This thread has a ton of drama queens. The delusional assumption that all of the runners are on thyroid meds is a complete lie. Total crap perpetuated by this website.
Totally.
And LRC'ers wonder why real runners think this website's forum is a load of shit.
What planet do you live on? Richie Boulet doesn't even coach.

Cook was her coach but her "group" was the non-affiliated BATC. She needed a coach, not a group. The best non-affiliated coach she could have found while staying with BATC is probably Richie Boulet. With all due respect to Richie, he and BATC simply can't compete with Salazar and NOP. I agree, though, it's a great move for her.
I’m a D2 female runner. Our coach explicitly told us not to visit LetsRun forums.
