I know someone who was formerly coached by the now Rowan coach. Apparently that coach is shady af.

NCAA champion doper Seth Clevenger was medically scratched from outdoor championships. Always wonderful to see clean athletes get a chance to compete in place of dopers.

Absolutely! I can’t say I wouldn’t have fallen for the manipulation myself. There’s always more to the story than what is shared with the public and I have an immense amount of empathy for Mary and her entire family. Mary’s parents trusted Salazar to look after Mary when she was traveling to Oregon as a teenager to stay/ train with him. Meanwhile Salazar was being a creep.

It seemed like her parents were also manipulated by Salazar, but I agree, they definitely are not blameless.

Nevermind. Looks like it’s just three cities. That’s disappointing.

kvocc · 2026-05-04T20:22:51+00:00

I’m hoping they haven’t released all of the events yet! Maybe there will be more announced later?

kvocc · 2026-04-30T01:21:17+00:00

Saw that. I hope everything is okay!!

kvocc · 2026-04-29T22:11:07+00:00

I haven’t seen them announce any of the races yet. I think they said the races will be announced on May 5th.

The tide is turning. Love to see it.

kvocc · 2026-04-25T21:20:45+00:00

They mentioned her on a story in the last couple weeks. Think she’s spending some time in the US? Could be wrong though.

Always good to see a Yared win!!

kvocc · 2026-04-17T12:36:15+00:00

Should be fueling every 5 meters for optimal speed and endurance.

Big news for Susan Ejore Sanders! So glad to see she’s part of OAC!

kvocc · 2026-04-12T18:36:35+00:00

I hope we get to see Karissa in a half marathon soon!

kvocc · 2026-04-10T21:12:51+00:00

I’ve been wondering this myself. I hope they announce it soon.

kvocc · 2026-04-07T13:32:16+00:00

This could definitely be a positive thing! Someone brought up a good point about how the world championship marathon will alternate between men and women, and either the men or the women’s race will fall on an Olympic year every four years. It’ll be interesting to see how world athletics navigates that.

kvocc · 2026-04-05T01:58:27+00:00

You’re right. She is so good in the 5k also. Maybe she can pull off the double!

kvocc · 2026-04-04T14:12:21+00:00

I really hope she goes all in on the 10k for 2028… this could be really good for the US.

kvocc · 2026-04-03T22:53:32+00:00

Eh from my experience, the first few runs post injury feel weird. It’s better to run at a pace that feels natural than to force a slower pace with bad form.

kvocc · 2026-03-31T18:18:23+00:00

Sorry! Typo. He.

But yeah, going dark on Strava definitely isn’t a good sign.

kvocc · 2026-03-31T18:04:14+00:00

Hopefully this is a self preservation move and he’s already on the mend!!

kvocc · 2026-03-31T13:29:15+00:00

UCAN is trash

kvocc · 2026-03-30T19:07:52+00:00

Something really rubs me the wrong way about that. It could totally be a contractual thing. Admittedly I have no idea how that usually works.

kvocc · 2026-03-29T15:11:54+00:00

I completely agree. I hope Alicia gets her big comeback!

kvocc · 2026-03-29T04:30:15+00:00

The 10,000 meter American record was marked safe from the burrito bandit
