She ran great at club cross and did pretty well in Scotland considering the conditions. Anyone know where she is headed

I can hope.
Where is it said she's no longer on the team? She was wearing NOP gear earlier this month and she's still in Portland.
Being a professional runner is probably the most difficult thing to do in all of professional athletics. First, there is no money. Period! Second, they structure your contract so that if you don't produce (even after a year), they cut your salary (if your lucky to get a salary in the first place). Third, if you don't produce after that second year......unfortunately you are history. Finally, these runners are drug tested like no other athletes in USA professional sports. A double standard indeed. The athletes need to form an union.
The bottom line is....... the USATF is inept and incompetent in making this a real profession for some of our finest athletes in the world. It's a total shame.
A total shame.

Nobody gives a rats ass about runners from Los Angeles.
Did anyone see this one coming? She did extremely well on the track her first year with NOP, had a stress fracture, and has since been on the up swing.
She is a very likeable person (no I wont say how I know this) and I was rooting for her to do well. Shocked NOP would let her leave so quickly, of course I guess we see things like this happen at Hansons and other teams as well so I shouldn't be so surprised.
It would be nice to get more details but considering she doesn't blog, doubtful.
Why do you think Dathan and Dorian are no longer with NIKE? The answer is simple........... you have to produce!........put out on the track! They did neither. They were constantly injured or just couldn't run times set by NIKE in their contracts. Such is life.
She is very likeable and I always root for Tara, even over Jordan Hasay.

Dathan is still with Nike
I don't think likable is the issue here. The issue is being able to run on that world class level. Salazar knows if you have it or don't have it.
That Osaka guy is pounding Erdman?
You're correct. If you don't produce, out you go. Just ask Shannon Lemora.
Welcome anytime at my place. ... unsure how wife will react but we'll cross that bridge when we get to it. :--).
Well,thats life,The strong stand and rumble, the Weak fold and crumble. RIP Tara Erdmann
Wasn't trustworthy enough for NOP
Has anyone read any real evidence that says she's out? Seems like hearsay to me.

Her twitter profile no longer lists her as a NOP athlete. It's been changed to blank. More so than that, Letsrun is rarely wrong about these things.
this has been known for quite some time. her contract expired a few months ago
