Galen MF Rupp. Salazar had it right.

Rupp couldn't be bothered to even give Ward a hi 5 as he finished 6th. He watched him finish then went to talk to the Nike CEO.

So don't feel bad for the Rupper. He kind of brings it on himself.

This is stupid. They were shown briefly talking later. Your projecting your observations watching from your couch into the middle of one of the most emotional situations of someone's life and assuming they are observing things the same way you are, that their eyes are seeing the exact same things as the camera, etc. etc.

This without a doubt.

Who is to say it was the right move and we were wrong? Maybe he would have finished stronger and gotten 2nd or possibly battled for first longer! What would he have looked like had he not ran a 10k right before? Salazar's training is crazy and as a college coach I believe Rupp is ran into the ground. There is no reason he should have ran the 5k at the US Championships. NONE!

Shorter did rather well after running the 10k in the games.

Rupp got bronze, fantastic performance. Kipchoge is very suspect, and has been since his track days. The aware people, the non SJW know this.

If she were taking the thyroid meds like they wanted her to she wouldn't have that problem.

Goucher is fat. She does not even look like a runner.

Agree. I've been watching her race, in person, since she was at CU. However . . . last year at the USA Outdoors, when the 5000 runners were standing at the starting line, I was scanning the lineup with binos to see who was there. One woman I could not recognize from a rear angle. She looked a little flabby above the waistband, and I wondered to myself, "Who the heck is this chubby woman that got into the USATF 5000? It turned out to be Groucher. For 12-1/2 laps I watched her new body jog around, and she finished 18th out of 20 starters.

Sorry, but anyone winning medals, or being top five, at the Olympics at the age of 30--especially a non-African in events typically dominated by Africans--has benefitted from outstanding coaching.

Who is to say the only reason he was able to go with the move in the 10,000m wasn't due to his OT 5,000m?
