I follow Alexi Pappas on Instagram (I know she’s not liked on these forums, and I do find her annoying too, blah blah blah, not the point), and Mary Cain has been featured in a lot of her recent stories, apparently training with the Kastor Mammoth crew. Anyone have any info on this—is this a permanent group for Mary or is she just visiting? If so, it’s an interesting choice for her—marathon-centered training and far from New York.

Looks like she’s only there for a few weeks, but Mary is definitely looking good these days...

Pappas is brain damaged.
I had a professor who said if we could get every single answer wrong on a multiple choice final, he would give you an automatic A in the class. Get one question right and you have to accept whatever you got on the final.
His argument was to get them all wrong, you had to be absolutely confident in your knowledge and it was absolutely more impressive than getting them all right.
I really hope Pappas is doing something like that: pretending really hard to be completely vapid all the time, because the alternative is really depressing. Imagine going through life like that! -

So true. Sad to watch -
Alexi's facial expressions scare me!

It kind of feels wrong to be making fun of her at this point, to be honest. -
May all you basement dwelling trolls be lucky enough to have daughters who are phenomenal runners or film makers.

those 2 probably fit in well together

I'd say it's too big a generalization to say Pappas isn't liked on here. Sure there are some who aren't fans but that comes with any celebrity/athlete. Some do like her.
I think the biggest thing from this is what you allude to "Kastor Mammoth " but a lot of people might miss as it's not shown in the 1st picture above but is in picture #4 (Screenshot below) and that is Pappas' coach is Deena Kastor.

Good to see Cain enjoying running. For her to get competitive again I think she's going to have to embrace the process and loving it and letting the results come. -
Sorry if Alexi has a serious neck condition or Tourettes or something but why does she tilt her head in an awkward position in every photo?

Who is second from the right in the big group shot? That looks like Pappas, without the Pappaslook. -
Is Alana Hadley spotted as well?
-
Thank you for saying this. I like Alexi.
-
Is Mary Cain no longer sponsored by Nike? Seems like it.
-
Pappas and Cain look huge and way out of shape, especially compared to Kastor in that photo.

I think that is Margo Malone from Syracuse. Pray she is not an alexi wannabe.
Mary Cain is definitely looking much more fit than in the summer. Could be a big comeback.
As for Alexi Pappas, I don't know if it is all a big put on but maybe not. Her inst and twitter are all weird pictures and nonsensical posts. . Anyone know if she has asperbergers or autism?

That is Margo Malone of Syracuse. I pray she has not become an Alexi wanna be. Mary Cain is looking LEAN. I'm calling a big comeback. As for Alexi, im starting to think the crazy gibberish writing and weird pics are not an act. Asperbergers, I bet.
