  - By far the most interesting post-race interviews we had today were with Kara Goucher. Immediately after the race shew as very emotional and in tears about finishing 4th.

    But that's not the real newsworthy video. Later, before leaving the mixed zone, Goucher had some very harsh words for the Nike Oregon Project. You can hear them all here

    A few highlights, "They mean nothing to me. Justice is coming.....
    
    "Letting go of that shit is how I came back. I lost 200 pounds of baggage...
    
    "Do you think everything I know came out in the BBC documentary? No. There is an investigation going on. You know there will be a day (when this comes out officially) and I'll be like (I told you so)...:
    
    "I've done all I can at his point. I believe in Travis.I don't wish them ill will. I just want them to stop doing what they are doing."
    
    I read some of those quotes to Rupp at his the press conference (which is going on as we speak). He didn't react defensively or angrily and simply said that he is happy to cooperate with all of the authorities (we'll upload his response when the press conference is over).

  - We've heard this before. I don't believe her this time. Kara needs her share of attention now that she can't get it for running fast.
    
    Congrats to Hastings, Desi and Shalane.

  - How incredibly disappointing. Not the proper venue at all. If every member of NOP is proven to free base nandrolone and dianobol I'll still have a more negative impression of Goucher.

    It's a bold strategy, Cotton, let's see if it pays off for [her].

  - Does anyone else get the feeling that maybe, just a little, she wishes them teeny tiny bit of ill will?

  - Did you even watch the above interviews? She said the other women were better today and gave no excuse. She didn't say anything negative about the other women and in fact complimented them.
    
    Later, they asker her about Galen and she responded with the truth. There is nothing wrong with honestly, and a cheater like Galen does not deserve congrats. He made his own choices.

  - Who exactly from the NOP did she lose to today? Did Alberto hop in and give Shalane some andro-gel for the last mile? Galen Rupp might look goofy but he is still a male athlete.

  - NOP had one runner in the men's race and no one in hers. And she had no idea, by her own admission, where Rupp finished. So how does this subject even come up? This was not the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat. This was the thrill of vindictiveness. I'm convinced more than ever that there has to be something deeply personal involved; this is not simply a case of someone accusing someone else of wrongdoing as regards fair play.

  - Apparently you can run a marathon on pure hate. I was under the impression you could only make it 800m.

  - Kara Goucher is pathetic. An embarrassment to American distance running.

  - I don't care for the attention whoring and the tears but I hope with every molecule that Rupp, Sleazy, Mo and Centro go to prison.

  - She said "200 pounds of f***ing baggage" What's up with that?
    
    Steve Jones could only do a 2:10 at 37, and he was a lot tougher than her.

  - Why should Rupp be phased? He's committed to Salazar, whatever an investigation turns up will have the same effect on him whether he continues his current course of action or were to denounce Salazar this very day. If the investigation goes on and on and on Rupp will have completed his career. He'll be lie Lance Armstrong, even though Lance is a doper people still erroneously consider him a world champion and tour de France winner. Of course, if the investigation can't prove anything Rupp goes down in history as one of America's 5 greatest runners, if not the best of all time.

    I think it was the hate that undid her in the end. She wasn't physically fried at the finish.

    Kara owes her career (and her endorsements and share of Oiselle) to AlSal's taking charge of her and Adam. The official response from the AlSal legal team was damning to the Gouchers (Adam should change the last name to Douchers) and Magness. Kara has proven to be the ultimate "See you next Tuesday."
    
    Brojos, I have a lot of respect for you guys, but stop taking her bait. And yes, I predicted Sean Quigley as the surprise in the top 10.
