I like how you claim since he hasn't visited in years he can't know that a bunch of unhappy people who bitch and whine post here.
So you make a thread where a bunch of unhappy people proceed to bitch and whine.

I agree with Rojo.
I'm a huge Nick Symmonds fan and come to these boards daily for the past 15 years. I bought his book and have contemplated buying Run Gum for the sole reason that he's basically the brand.
That was an interesting Q&A on Reddit. I agree that he's probably missed out on millions of dollars in sponsorship's over the years. Sucks, but he also still lives a pretty great life.
I wonder what he does after he retires. He probably makes $250k per year for the past 10 years, so should have a decent nest egg. However, he'll most-likely still need a job. Coach? Speaker?
Nick Simmons AMA on reddit was good but an AMA on here would be a slam dunk breaking the backboard! He never gets accused of doping on here. He should do a no holds barred AMA, troll food and all. WIth all the millionaires who post here daily, they'd probably jump at the chance to buy some cases of run gum for their multiple super model wives, AND INVEST in run gum.
Maybe Renato would bring the message of Run Gum to the kenyans and ethiopians.

I'd be willing to bet this place is more of a negative anonymous cesspool than it ever has been.
Doesn't answer the question.
Exactly. We could have totally gotten better over those 10 years for all he knows even if we didn't.
yeah nick people are mean on the intra-net
yeah F-ing baby
Maybe I'll change my usual line of "Centro is a phag" to "Nick Symmonds is a stupid phaggot." Or maybe keep both? Yea I like both.
Because he has seen the brojos in action.

I'm surprised Symmonds doesn't have a better attitude about the boards. He's an entrepeneur. The only people in the world who know who he is post on these forums. Some of them don't like him but the vast majority do
He's not an entrepreneur, he's a sports athlete/personality and he's parlayed that into a couple businesses (or one business).
My definition of an entrepreneur is someone who builds a business out of nothing, Symmonds already has a following, he could sell blank white t-shirts to them.
I agree 100 % with Nick
about 77 % of Letsrunners are brain dead with small penis syndrome
Nick Symmonds is the epitome of LRC posters:
sub 4 miler - check
yearly income above $250k - check
dated a celebrity - check
seems like he fits in with the rest of us
He must be psychic to know that the messageboards are as poisonous as ever.
What is the threshold that separates a "hobbyjogger" from a "sub-elite" runner?
