Galen handled this situation in a fashion that most of us would be embarrassed by. Whether his decision was right or wrong is irrelevant. Most of us would be embarrassed with a DNF followed by a workout. Most of us can not relate to Galen Rupp. This means that when Galen does something special an AR or an Olympic Medal we do not give him the credit he deserves because he acts different than the way we would. He is a great runner and the worst ambassador for American Distance Running.
Well said.
