I found this guy annoying, so I made the above posts complaining about him. It is entirely possible that he can have an overly inflated opinion of the credibility of racewalking, be a bit of an @$$ on an elevator, say negative things about 3000m runners in front of a crowd of track fans, and still be massively more deserving of respect than Rossi and Greathouse.At least that is what I believe. I think we should probably move on and leave this guy alone. A bit silly and cringeworthy? Sure. Deserving of thousands of mocking and hateful posts? I believe not.In fact, part of me wishes I could be a true believer in the worthiness of a goal as low as "elite" racewalking status. Then I wouldn't feel like half of a failure for knowing I'll never be an olympian, no matter how many more years I give this sport. At least this racewalk guy can have that to pat himself on the back about, even if only the other race walkers are impressed.
