Elite runners making fun of Letsrun.com on twitter

That's pretty dumb though. I don't understand the chip on shoulders of people who are running semi pro or professionally.

They generalize a lot in the tweets. They fail to realize, without LetsRun, I'd seriously have no idea who any of them are.

This

The chip on their shoulder makes total sense. They make little money, have few fans (apart from us), and too much spare time on their hands. The idea that WE'RE the angry losers is projection on their part.

I thought you had to be good to be considered elite.

Sheila Reid and the other elites making fun of this site are the biggest bunch of idiots.

I hope they read this so let me say it again. YOU ARE IDIOTS.

They are insulting THE ONLY FORUM on the internet that contains the SMALL group of fans that even care about what they do.

^this

I mean she has a point about some of the terrible misogyny on here. There are women who read this place but make sure to hide their identity at all costs.

Some elites commenting:

Leah O'Connor

Emily Infeld

Anna Willard

Chris Derrick

Mac Fleet

I've probably made more money in the aggragate in my own sport than Sheila has in hers. From somme experience, an observation:

My experience in a number of different sports is that the biggest whiners and self-saboteurs are at the lower levels of elite, i.e. just scraping by and fueled by insecurity. That said, 4:03 is a big improvement, so maybe Sheila's outlook will improve soon. At least she can take a clue from Phoebe Wright and channel some of that anxiety into actual humor, which is tempered with humility.

LOL.

Those cute little twitter white knights coming to rescue the mighty shewolf Sheila made my day.

She won D1 NCAA XC championships (beating out runners like Hasay and Infeld) so I'd say she's pretty elite.

Oh boy. Actually they are exactly like you and everyone else here at this forum:

1) pro or semi-pro runner

2) pretty dumb

3) chip on shoulders and elbows and knees.

4) make little money

5) fail to realize that (even with Letsrun.com)… nobody has any idea who they are

6) have few fans (even with us)

7) angry loser

8) too much spare time on their hands

9) So in other words…welcome to the asylum (forum).

No elite would ever waste time on twitter (or letsrun if you wish). These are wannabes.

I love how all the men here are so outraged that you're being called misogynist while commenting whether female runners are attractive and whether you'd "hit that."

Yeah, how OUTRAGEOUS that women might think you're misogynist. Of course all that matters random dudes' penises.

Being somewhat promising 5-6 years ago doesn't make you an elite today.

Why are women so offended when men find them sexually attractive? These dames have some serious issues.

Stop whining. We treat men much worse than we treat women. But you're correct in one thing. We won't say that we'd hit you. I'm really sorry about that. Please don't cry.

It's a joke that they have to make jokes about the scandal's they're involved in.

She's upset that you're bringing attention to it and doing free investigative work that authorities often have the potential to miss, so she thinks mocking you and bringing more attention to you is the answer.

Elite running women have to be the most retarded athletes in the world.

Hey Lauren! What's up?

Listen little baby, you're gonna get a lot of hurtful and degrading comments, but that aint what I'm about.

You're perfect the way you are. You hear me, sugar? Perfect. You deserve everything and anything you want. Stay safe for me, baby girl.

>MFW thinking about you hurting

What's outrageous is that you seem to think that misogyny has something to do commenting on females' appearance and wanting to have sex with them. Misogyny has nothing to do with penises random or not random.

The white conservative trolls on this board should be ridiculed at every opportunity. I bet 99% are fat ugly and and haven't had a date in years. Let alone a meaningful relationship in their sad and pathetic lives.
