https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zIChFqVw3NgWell he better get ready to start sucking. Kevin and Keith are horrible, self-adsorbed coaches with no idea what they're doing. A huge shame for Biwott
Brooks shoes suck.
K & K suck
Desi sucks.
Shadrack sucks
Just kidding. I just wanted to make sure that I wasn't left out. This board is ridiculous. I predict that Shadrack breaks 2:10 within a year. The Hanson bros seem to have a pretty good approach to maximizing marathon talent. Shadrack appears to be a huge talent. And Desi is my favorite runner (I have a poster of her in my office)
It remains to be seen if Biwott moves to MI to train. If not (see Brendan Gregg), the Hansons are simply middlemen between Brooks and the athletes, nothing more.

The Hansons were great in Slap Shot.
you do know that the Hansons bros have basically nothing to do with Des right? They rarely see her or have any contact with her. She does her own thing and they claim all her success.
That's total bs and what gives you the right to say that?Who says they are bad coaches and why? Linden has had a way better marathoning career than Goucher, yet Keith and Kevin don't know anything? That's ridiculous and absurd. What is wrong with you people and why are you hating on Linden? She ran a great race at the trials and came in just behind Cragg. What's the deal with people ripping on the Hanson's?

How trumpian.
So I guess that Des is wrong then? Because she is very thankful for their coaching.
really now. where and when did Kevin say she walked on water? Desi's faults? you lost all hope of credibility with that comment.

Kevin has been blind when it comes to the faults of Desi. Ask anyone that has been part of the team. Kevin thinks she walks on water.
This thread is a reminder of everything that is wrong with this board.
ITS ABOUT SHADRACK BIWOTT FINDING A SPONSOR. Nothing else. Why can't we just be happy that a hardworking guy that deserved a sponsor has found one? Why bash the sponsor that stepped up when no one else had? Why bash the most prominent athlete that has run for the sponsor for over a decade?
I don't know if it's jealousy or just people that need to troll over every subject?
DUH!!! This thread reminded you of that? Over half the threads on the home page are like this. The brothers like hits, that creates more advertising revenue which means more money, get it? If they really cared, it wouldn't be like this.

I absolutely have the right. My post was completely accurate. Trust me.
Current and past HBODP athletes say this. And because the Hanson Bros care about their image and their ego way more than the athletes and their success. (Just take a look at the athlete turnover in that group)
No arguing that Linden is a good and strong marathoner. She does not have the edge she needs to consistently win though.
Like the other posted asked, what is wrong with you?
Shaddy is tearing it up. Congrats to him! Happy he is running for Brooks
Number of marathons Desi has won. Zero. History is important.

- Why doesn't someone in Canada sponsor him?
First it was that Mexican Desiree Davila and now this Kenyan Shadrack Biwott. Once that wall is built a lot of this $hit will be taken care of.
Oops! Trump has not said anything about a beautiful wall to keep Canadians out. Exactly where do you think the wall between the US and Kenyan should be built?
Your logic is flawed with a capital F.
Flanagan has won one marathon, the trials in 2012. Desi finished 2nd twice.
Goucher has never finished better than 3rd in any marathon and has never been close to winning.
Regardless of the wind or her time, Linden was only 2 seconds behind first place and was actually in first with less than 200 to go.
Hastings has won one marathon, Flanagan has won one marathon and Goucher has never won a marathon.
So then, with your highly intellectual logic, Flanagan, Goucher and Hastings are good strong marathoners that don't have the edge to "consistently win"...correct?
Or were you just posting while you were sitting on the can taking a sh*t while reading Runner's World?
