Lots of trolls, but some of the best coaches and athletes in the world sometimes post too, even Paula Radcliffe. And of course, right now on the messageboard you can also learn about the impact on training of drinking a gallon of milk per day.Justin Mockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16172731732367510550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5857054182085881319.post-7333360106433984732009-03-28T13:29:00.000-06:002009-03-28T13:29:00.000-06:00Thanks GZ, well said.

The front page is good for catching up on the week's news, but the message boards are a toilet. I learn far more from the blogosphere which is overall quite positive and supportive. If I had commented that I didn't know who Robert Gary was on LR... I would immediately be treated like garbage. Instead- you informed me without the rudeness. I could go on for days.. nuff said. (oh, and I would also be corrected for my poor grammar just now).Luchohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07992289866901355978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5857054182085881319.post-13957216248840693792009-03-28T13:00:00.000-06:002009-03-28T13:00:00.000-06:00Short version: high level tri guy decides he want...Short version: high level tri guy decides he wants to focus on marathons instead of multisport stuff. Goes to the most popular site on the web to get some counsel and immediately gets ripped as a.) all site newbies do and b.) all tri guys on that site do. Our athlete asks himself - "WTF is up with this?" and appropriately decides the site message board sucks.<BR/><BR/>I know that Lucho's history in this sport is short lived and suspected he had not heard of Mr. Gary's other accomplishments - hence the hint (in a non letsrun fashion).<BR/><BR/>My nickel ... I have gravitated away from Letsrun ... I find I can get 99 percent of the news related to running I want in a friendlier format (specifically delivered to my mailbox, the content I want) without all the asshole comments via RSS feeds.<BR/><BR/>In the interim, I kind of enjoy being able to see new folks find out about guys like Gary, Deek, etc. Hell, I am on the same learning curve about tri guys and ultra folks.GZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12623054918799881730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5857054182085881319.post-66510886450791209602009-03-28T12:33:00.000-06:002009-03-28T12:33:00.000-06:00Justin- You apparently don't know me well at all. ...Justin- You apparently don't know me well at all.

I follow my 2 year old a lot. <BR/><BR/>BJ- I can't really see myself racing anytime in the near future. If I do they will be unplanned and done simply as workouts. I still want the FTK on Walker Ranch- that will be my first "race".Luchohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07992289866901355978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5857054182085881319.post-35944573777172138702009-03-28T08:45:00.000-06:002009-03-28T08:45:00.000-06:0012% increase, that's pretty solid.

But not to take away from the improvements he saw.
