Yeah, I’m going to go with the guy who’s not even in his mid-twenties and is a college graduate, world traveler, professional athlete, and national champion as someone who’s living his life to the fullest. What do you want him to do? Jump out of an airplane? Be careful! He might post a picture of it on Instagram!
Look out, he achieved something almost significant!
Yo, if Parsons isn't in this race, would it have been reported here by the Citius writer embedded in Tinman Elite to generate click bait? No, nobody would post about it here. Stop shoving news about this traitor down our throats.
Parsons looks like he's doing the Robert Harting Gold pose, only a distance runner's not going to tear his shirt open like that.
Fine performance from them with 2:30 to close a 7:52. I still register as disapproving national allegiance shifts without actual immigration. It is true that U.S. coaching and facilities are top notch. A shame we don't have more of our top guys actually out there competing. Hard to believe that Jerry's boys don't rebel and compete.
Betraying his country and making a big deal of an unimpressive, hollow "national title". What else do you expect from the trust fund boy? 99.7% chance he started this thread himself Lol. Clown.

Please don't ruin a good conspiracy with actual facts. Don't you realize where you're at?

I noticed similar comments in the above IG link.
Are you @chase_distance / Chase from Westminster College XC and Track, by chance? Why don't you make your profile public?
https://www.instagram.com/chase_distanceParsons sat on Amos the whole race, only taking over with 150m to go and still barely holding on. I don't fault the tactic, just ironic with all that Tinman talk of pushing pace out front and running tough.
Because he’s a 10 flat 3k guy hating on a professional runner.
I'm not yet sure what to think about it, but what exactly do you mean by "betraying his country"? They are both born to German mothers and thus (i.e. according to German law) have German citizenship by birth.

Care to reference a quote on this?
Lol at the dissident board lord who has never even run a 26.xx 200, much less at the end of a championship 3000.

I don't know how fast/not fast the guy who made the off color comment is; but why would some random guy come out and say such a mean thing? Doubtful that he's ever even met Sam, let alone know him.
Sam and Amos both have dual citizenship. Both are fluent in German. Both have family living in Germany.

Referring to the Chase IG poster above, obviously.

Sorry if I have caused a misunderstanding. I didn't want to allude to money, but wanted to point out that they have dual citizenship by birth so none of the two betrays either country.

"It's supposed to be fun. We're supposed to put on a show. I had to go for it. My heart wouldn't let me run any other way." In reference to him giggling as he lead the 5th Ave Mile by 20 meters.
