Yeah right, I think it's been firmly established here that you're an idiot.

You may find me there and continue this discussion if you wish. I will talk to you in person if you wish.
But knock off the tough talk with me, sir, it is clear both of you decided to change your internet personae and it kind of isnt working. It just makes me regret being nice to you.
I thought the same thing, there are few places that hate NOP/AlSal/Rupp as much as this place.

Thanks for this expert insight.
Answer.... wrote:Question..? wrote:As a registered psychologist who works with victims of child abuse, it common for survivors of abuse to develop strong adverse reactions when placed in situations that are similar to what occurred in the abuse. For example, a child regularly locked in a closet will develop a fear of closed in spaces. However, there are many examples that are less obvious and more subtle; a certain smell can trigger a panic response in some survivors of abuse and they may not even remember at first why that smell is eliciting that response.RYinvestigator wrote:Why is a story of child abuse 'weird'?

“Well the pain of running beats getting a nail hammered through my foot. Not really anything is as painful as that.†He remembers being zipped in a suitcase and pushed down the stairs, and being hanged with a cord attached to a coat hanger.
Therefore, what is weird/rare about that photo to me - is that a person who had suffered childhood trauma by specifically being zipped into a suitcase (a memory strong enough to mention and write about as the specific abuse they suffered) would find it funny and enjoyable to recreate that experience. It is of course possible the situation left no lasting effect on him, but then it is strange that he specifically talks about it.
It's rubbish, 100% self-promotion and Jesus co*kriding, no thanks

I asked this hours ago, but now that you're online, I'll ask again since it got buried.
Honest question, CoachKev: When you forced Robert Young to stop after 373 miles, why did you do it and how? I'm curious because Young said he wanted to go on, and I think he said he thought he could go 400 miles. So why did you stop him? And how?
Exactly.

+1 They're losing and tried changing tack.

I'm not in the US. I'm from the UK but living in Canada. Could not read all of this thread, far too long, but since you seem to be a very good friend of Rob, can you ask him a question for me? Ask him what it was like to ride with Eric Zabel and team Milram? You know, the professional cycling team that was made up of some Italians but mostly German riders and no British riders. The team that he said he road for.

Good for her! Sounds like he is having a hard time ripping off those 6 minute miles at this point. Laz is really putting in some work too.
I predict that he is going to have a bad day tomorrow. He'll then take a rest day or another short day and then call off the record attempt... thus ending my current work diversion.
I'm not bashing but a few people sure have. In my opinion the "quietly wait and see what the data shows" approach is not the way to go. If the running community allows a run like this to conclude in Times Square and get press without any scrutiny we'd let him take his glory and fame. It is just like a drug cheat taking an Olympic medal.

Could you clarify where you have found me slanging? And I am posting using my original handle, well the one I managed to regiyster, not multiple ones.

Rob is pushing more the limits of an old RV than anything else.
