Nobody wants to train with Shalane????

I'd train with her. I'd train with her like there was no tomorrow. I'd go easy at first, and then slowly pick up my rhythm, and after a nice warm sweat, I push it, and push it, until we both explode with lactic acid. Yes, I'd like to train with Shalane.

The expression is "half-stepper," and the distinction matters. A half-stepper is just almost running with you. In fact, most of the time when you're running with someone else, one or the other will be slightly ahead or behind. A half-stepper is someone who is always slightly ahead. It's insidious because it causes the pace to drop down gradually so you're hardly aware of it until you're running faster than you planned to. If someone is one or two steps ahead of you, then it's obvious that they're trying to lead, and you can either let them, or try to take control yourself.

For what it's worth, I can't imagine Shalane being a half-stepper. She's way too disciplined.

Do tell.

One stepping means to constantly lead by just that, one step.

actually "half stepping" means to not really give your all.

She is still elite.

Still hot.

She would make a great cover/poster girl for the sport.

By the by, anyone notice how some former Irish step dancing females are good distance runners?

Rowbury, Flanagan...

Shalane definitely wouldn't be messing around half-stepping anything. She'd be outright asserting dominance on a group. Hang or go home.

Please watch Happy Gilmore. Sheesh, I even put quotation marks around it to give it away!

Also, when coach cook retired, Shannon Rowbury wanted to actually train with Jerry's group as Cook use to coach Shalane. But yeah, for "some reason" it didn't happen. Nike has a lot more drama than people realize. There are a few key people who keep things tame, as Alberto and Jerry would rip each others heads off if they got the chance. Kara was right to leave the bull crap behind, its just an organization that runs on intimidation, favoritism, thuggery, under the table deals, and "the fine print" in contracts. They keyis to make it seemlike one big happy family to the public. I highly doubt anyone in the NOP is doping, but there are certain nutritional supplements they use to help athletes maintain a really low body fat%. fBTCE
