You realize that all of these emails and photos of text conversations are made up, right? Admittedly this is a more popular thread than the one in which I produced high school track results showing Eminem was a 1:54 800m runner. (If I hadn't used the real names of other rappers as the other runners, that story would have had more legs.) But this stuff is just as phoney.
I can't speak to the other conversations posted, but I can tell you that mine was definitely real. I have many other posts under my username to back this up. I wasn't expecting a response, but the one I got was surprising enough for me to post it here. We haven't talked since then and now she has deleted her Facebook.
What I can say now is that the current plan is for me to go to this race. As the date approaches, I can be more concrete with you all on what I plan on doing, but rest assured I am working with others to get to the bottom of this.
As an aside, I hope nobody is being directly accusatory or mean to either Rotary or Jill or her coach. Even if the claims are not true, it's likely that not all three of them would be "in on it" and it's really not our business to be annoying or rude at this stage. These people are people too, please remember.
