Ritz and Jager. Derrick probably gets an honorable mention.
Joan Samuelson is an icon and could probably stare down any troll into 6 years of whimpering in their mom's basement.
Pretty much anyone else is fair game for bashing and piling on.
Joanie's problem is that she can't live outside the media spotlight. She hogs it from today's marathoners. I ain't afraid of 5-0 50+ wrinkled hag
So here we are, it's all over and I was right. You small dicked little boys couldn't take pleasure in one god d@mn race.
You spent your time $hitting all over something we have all wanted for years and years, the USA to be relevant in distance running on the international stage, and we were... but you took no joy in it.
Some of you posting the BS you post really need to ask yourself why you are the way you are. What is missing in your life to make you lash out in such a manner.
Ben Blankenship, Molly Huddle, Paul Chelimo, centro, Murphy, Rupp, Davila, Ward, Jaeger, Coburn,
They're all wrong, the answer is Kipchoge, and he DID win a gold and DID meet with universal LR approval. Even though he ran more than three minutes slower than he has ever ran before and is obviously done.
Before he slows down he needs to go run a sub 2:30 50k. He is uniquely qualified to run 2:04 and just keep going. There is no stopping him. No stopping him!

...we love our chatty women runners around here!
Rudisha seems pretty popular.
Ezekiel Kemboi? Only trouble is he's not a pale face and Kenyan and according to El Keniano and Native Son every one on LR except them hates Kenyan's, but then then again Galen Rupp is a very pale face and very non Kenyan, so...perhaps I'm confused.
EK is my nomination.
My vote goes out to pheidippides
Hold it... Joanie? If that's the case, then we need to acknowledge the other great woman runner of that era:
Buddy Edelen
John Landy
Eric Hulst

So every runner that does something is dirty, every runner that can't advance past the prelims is a "wasted slot" "lazy" or "runs stupid".
What distance runner, male or female could win a Gold and not draw the hate of this board?
I say none.
Yes they are all dirty, maybe 1 or 2 are clean in the finals, Grace maybe Rowbery and Simpson. Centro, Murphy dirty but I love Centro.
I think this board gave him the thumbs up , but hated the time.
I second Colleen Quigley. I can't figure out why she doesn't get more love around here - she's gorgeous!
