I agree, and what's the logic of not posting the data? The whole thing is bizarre, which is the biggest red flag of all.

Posted to the ulist by Ray
Shortly after we began walking, together Robert started to run. We covered the next mile at about 9 minute pace with him gradually increasing the speed. He asked if he was going too fast and I told him I had a 100 miler coming up and wanted to run closer to the pace for that event. Robert then blasted off running the next mile at or around seven minutes, he slowed slightly, got a drink from the RV than began walking shortly afterwards. I plugged along at 10:30 per mile pace, and within a mile (32 minutes from when we began walking together) we were back together three miles down the road and walking again.
I read this and thought, What a jerk. Then I reread it and thought, What an idiot.
Props to Ray and Laz. -

who thinks that 46 miles is a lousy result of an 18 hour effort considering that Rob "ran" 70 mile days just 10 days ago.
Word.
Double word. Exactly what people predicted would happen at the beginning of the thread. A painful end with no record and more inquiry into the first 2/3rds of this sham is imminent. -

BTW, the screenshots of the TomTom are something called TomTom MySports DashBoard. To register you need to have a TomTom device. All of this data is already uploaded to the TomTom website. Conceivably with pace, cadence, and possibly HR data. He's accessing it with his browser. I don't know if TomTom MySports allows you to share your data publicly...
You can make activities public but they are stand alone not linked centrally to an athlete profile then, like this..

#1 rule of lying is never admit to it.
By finishing he can write a book. Still claim he "ran" across the country and keep sponsors happy. -

How to make $100k
by Anonymous Ultra Runner
-Set goal to rise $200k for a childrens hospital.
-Claim bullshit expenses totaling up to $100k on bullshit run across country
(i.e. trailer breaking down)
-Pocket said $100k and spend a small percentage of it to commit fraud again.
-Be sure to chat with your autistic fans to make them feel special so that they come to your defense when the truth gets exposed.
-It also helps to have a dlck sucking second in command who watched a Lance Armstrong documentary and now thinks he is a genius by threatening people with lawsuits. -

Nicely done. This needs to go in the google docs summary.
I'm assuming I can edit a ps file in gimp. I'd like to add a little re: the Hwy 95 stretch. Is that shared somewhere?
Hi guys
Here is the photoshop original of the illustration. Feel free to edit and post a new version here/on the google doc.

The problem with this business model is only that people have to give $200000 to that charity. That is very unlikely to happen.
Robert Young has 50.000 facebook fans but didn't somebody here pointed out that most of them are bought profiles. And I doubt that his 500 dedicated "He did it for the kids" fans will shell out $200000. -
I just saw this on the other thread:
Can someone give me a summary of the Robert Young thread and what's going on? 6/15/2016 4:12PM - in reply to Sparks Notes
Sparks Notes wrote:
Some bloke on holiday in Cali ran off and left his 2 friends in an RV.
2.5 hours later, he called to say he's running across the US.
They slowly follow him until he runs offroad and up onto a busy freeway.
Further out in the desert, he decided to run offroad again and their RV got stuck in sand and Cooter had to come tow them.
Bloke runs solo across some mountains and hangs out at the pool til his friends arrive.
Late at night in Kansas, the friends have had enough and decide to leave him.
Bloke dresses up as a crack whore and strolls in front of a security camera and calls friends from a bar.
Friends regret leaving Bloke and turn around and get him.
Just a few minutes later, an axe-wielding psychopath wearing a strobe light chases the RV and all 3 blokes flee in terror.
Bloke walks on side of interstate facing traffic near St Louis.
Three AARP members arrive and smoke cigarettes and donate their shirts to their new English friend.
AARP members sit in camp chairs on side of highway and watch bloke walk by.
Bloke walks on and spends night at Walgreens in Effingham.
Other important matters:
Americans are just jealous of Brits breaking their records.
Ultra-runners aren't really runners.
Ulisters are snooty and mock letsrun.
Rojo likes to throw money around.
A TomTom watch is so complicated that data cannot be uploaded by Bill Gates himself.
CoachKev and Arealpersson promote bloke as new King of England.
And all charities are frauds.

By gad, this Young chappy is nothing but a cad and a scoundrel, I tell you good sirs and madams he's jolly well got my gander up.
It's just not cricket, this wasn't how the great British Empire was built. -

He likes to but doesn't. -
It is pretty clear he bought a large block of twitter followers (not facebook fans). Same difference, I guess, and that's something that got lost along the way, so good to bring back up.

Awesome work but imo it is better to keep it as accurate as possible and the temperature was only 85F:
http://www.timeanddate.com/weather/usa/laughlin/historic?month=5&year=2016
People continue to exaggerate here, saying 100F etc and it does not help the case. The case is best if we stick to good data.
I thought that was good data. I went off other posts for the details. I've posted the original for anyone to edit a few posts back. -

Thank you for the update.
I find today's performance by Robbie was sort of a downer. How many sub 6:00 minute miles did Robbie do today? 18? 13? 10? 7? 5 then? 2? 1?!!!!
Sorry. The correct answer is ZERO.
You know Robbie that the 35:58 10K you did at around 6,800 ft. altitude near Williams, Arizona is the equivalent of about a 34:11 10K at sea level, which is a 5:30 pace. A 34 minute 10K effort included in a 70 mile day, after many other 70 mile days in the desert…Come on Robbie Rekrunner!!!!
Do we have any idea what Robbie's 'true' 10K PR or 'true' 10K ability is based on other 'real' races?
I do not think he could run a 10k in 34 minutes even if he was trained, rested, and fresh. Let's see it Robbie.
Robbies's form is starting to look sloppy…just like the British Mo Farah. -

Well that didn't add to the 20 worthwhile posts you mentioned earlier did it.

This guy is collecting money and duping people. Further to that Skins is using his fake run to promote their products. If the 100s of letsrunners that post on the Robert Young thread made a comment on their most recent post real action would be taken.
Are we sure Skins is not taking part in this scam? There's a representative from Skins in the RV, right?
Why did Skins allegedly block a letsrun poster from following them on Twitter when the poster started questioning RY's running? https://twitter.com/SKINSGB -

But Dustin Brooks is the mastermind. -

Hardly a mastermind. He's made a right dog's dinner of it.
