Where is Rupp?

I'm just curious, where would you expect Rupp to be in the first couple weeks of April? I guess he has run some very early season races in the past at this time. But still, its early April and he is obviously aiming for late August and September to be at his best. Why would he be doing anything else but staying out of the public eye and training?

I believe he is hiding and doing his usual secret training and of course visiting his endocrinologist since he suffers from so many metabolic deficiencies that must be to be supplemented in order to function and perform much better than his natural capability.

-oh, I don't know...maybe training with the rest of his group in flagstaff?

He's got two baby twins at home. What's he supposed to do, just say "see ya!" to the missus and go to Flagstaff on a lark for six weeks?

Yes. He's a pro runner. Its his job.

that's what farah sure does. comes with the territory.

Mrs. Rupp put the kibosh on hubby's plans. Rupp is under tight control by his wife. Salazar has meet his match for Rupp's attention.

Farah, on the other hand, runs off to train because he can play when he is away from home. Rupp doesn't know how to play when he is away: he's been with Salzar much too long.

Seems like the most boring and non fun loving runner around. Of course, Ive never met him though. That's just my perception.

What makes you say he's boring?

what makes you think rupp is not boring?

No personality in interviews, poor interviews, seemingly fake smiles, pics, etc.

rupp has been under alsal's kontrol since rupp was 14. rupp's wife has taken over kontrol of rupp's life. alsal has been owned by a small woman; rupp's wife.

I personally don't care too much about that stuff. I'm more interested in his races, which aren't that boring to me.

The public cares. Runners like Rupp is why the track 10k is dead event. The event will be dumped from the Olympics soon enough.

Why do you blame Rupp and runners like him for the decreasing popularity of the track 10k? Do you think elite runners from other countries care about the quality of the guy's interviews?

Go back into your troll-hole, little boy Benson.

I just want to know why you think Rupp is ruining the track 10k

he, or she, typed "Runners like Rupp"

The "fight" was between Alberto and Galen (not the others) but it's cooling off, no worries.

But the Mrs is deciding what happens, not Salazar.
