I can't believe he is still denying everything. First the tracker was sometimes in the RV now the watches were, guess the problem there was they were still attached to RY while he kicked back and enjoyed the ride.
Clearly he started out with the intention of cheating, going by when it all started.
Factory resetting the watches is a blatant attempt to cover up the evidence. He probably actually got the idea from this forum.
Amazing that the saviour was TomTom and the inability to modify the data.....KUDOS!! -
The guy is a complete d-bag! He set out to lie and scam people of their money. A thief! Now that he is caught he is pleading ignorance to stuff like GPS watches and cadence.
He is a running version of a scamming traveling gypsy. -

The amount of genius on the internet is really amazing. Gold. -

Well I actually have one other question.
Why does a TomTom show any cadence in a car? Is it because things bump up and down?
The cadence uses an accelerometer that measures arm swing. So if he swings his arm in the car, such as opening the car door, he gets a step. -
Presented with the data, Young continued to deny any wrongdoing.
“To be honest with you, I did all the running,†he said.p
"To be honest with you" ... Ha ha ha ha ha
Rob ... you're killing us! -

Brilliant. Moving. Captures the immortal, somewhat creepy essence of RY like a bug in amber.
Best lines:
He did it for charity...
what did he gain?
You can't ask for clarity
From one who's so inane. -
Good to see some real closure on this sordid tale.
Rob Young has definitely f*cked his reputation and legacy forever.
Anyone with two brain cells to rub together will see Rob for the douche-nozzle that he is. -

Definitely not our RY...that guys a Vet category.
On RY website, he is down for the Montane Spine multiday event...is this the multi day race he mentioned in a Facebook post, so he could prove his running abilities. -
It's still possible he didn't cheat....If he was running on the moon!
Can't believe the guy is still denying it, he has no integrity whatsoever. -
How to Spot a Pathological Liar
A pathological liar is someone who compulsively tells lies or fabricates information. A pathological liar may not be completely rooted in reality, believing the lies they tell, often in an effort to remedy low self esteem. To spot a pathological liar, pay attention to behavior. A person may tell lies that seem to provide them with attention or personal gain. You may also spot frequent inconsistencies in stories. While pathological liars generally give less physical cues when lying, certain subtle changes in body language may indicate a pathological liar. A pathological liar may, for example, make excessive eye contact. Look into someone's history. Problems like substance abuse, and a history of unstable relationships, are all indications someone may be a pathological liar. -

It's so sad he thinks he can still rebuild his reputation by running well in a multi day event.
Robby, the questions were never if you could run it was if you were a lying cheating con-man.
It's over buddy. -

Not true if he wins Sri Chimnoy by doing 600 miles at 9 minute miles doing 40 metre strides then his reputation is salvaged. -
great call.

Brilliant again, I still sing the chorus to your original Rossi "Boston Bandit" song sometimes on a run. -
Rob Young Lives- fb post.
"I understand Skins' decision to focus their attention elsewhere moving forward. Whilst not necessarily agreeing entirely with the findings, I respect the conclusions of the investigators and the process undertaken by Skins. I left the UK intent on giving everything I had to break the Race Across USA record, and hopefully some of the images posted throughout, showed the torture I put my body through. Whilst running to break the record, I was also running on behalf of charities close to my heart, and to inspire youngsters to run. Indeed some of the support I had from local communities whilst in the US was overwhelming. I admittedly made mistakes with the data management and recordings, but never did I cheat. And I will set out to prove that next year with as much scrutiny as is required when I compete in the 6 day race in New York and thereafter seek to break the record for Race Across USA. I want to thank Michael and Dusty for their assistance in crewing me, and all those who supported me throughout. I will never give up."
