There are consequences for pro runners comments.... Nike Instagram "nike“I’m running toward the ground that I’m breaking. Towards history.” @kevinhart4real is going after his first 26.2 this weekend in New York City. #breakthrough.
No Shalane.
Evan Jager didn't even congratulate her. Wonder what's that about..
Last tweet was about Rupp winning.
There were consequences to those who spoke out against Lance too. But some people have integrity.
Nike is scum. They are just trying to figure how they can capitalize on this situation without lifting Shalane's status. The true definition of corporate greed.
Truthfully, the NOP crew will burn in hell eventually. I can't wait.
Thank you Shalane for showing us that it is possible without shortcuts.

NIKE only cares about one thing - $$$$$$$$$$$$. They are not nice, they support dirty athletes as long as the river of $$$$$$ is coming in.

Call me crazy, but when I own shares in a company I generally like to see said company care about $$$$$$$$. Crazy I know!!!!
I'm 100% sure she's not so anti-nike. WTF do you think were on her feet? The 4% or the elites (which we'll never get).
Between her open dislike of NOP and her idolization of Meb (famous break-up with Nike), I have to remind myself that she still is indeed sponsored by them. Definitely a chilly relationship there.
Hard to imagine a clean athlete dusting all these “dirty” athletes. Either the doping doesn’t work, or Shalane, past her prime, at 36 is superior or we have huge gray zone micro dosing issues.
Paula Radcliffe congrats to Kellyn Taylor of Hoka . No Shalane. Starting to like Paula again.

Dopers don't necessarily dope all the time, especially with the heat being turned up on Kenya and Ethiopia. They may have decided to run this one "raw". And BTW 36 is a prime age for the marathon for someone with track speed.
Isn't Shalane one of these woe-is-me runners who can't win major competitions and blames other races for it?
OP. I think there is a typo in your title. What is it supposed to say? I'll change it to what you want it to be. Originally, you wrote it as "Corporate Nike , Shalane is know one." which make no sense to me.
If Nike doesn't like Shalane, why did they bribe all these runners to throw the race today so she could "win?"
I'm just so confused...
Think about marketing tactics.

Big riff with Nike and Flanagan after Shalane's post Chicago comment. Nike social media focused on Kevin Hart today.
People like Kevin Hart
Hart was humble post race.

Shalane did a long social media thank you's to everyone but
