Asbel Kiprop fat shames himself: I'm training 70+ miles per week but admit "my weight is still a bit of a challenge."

I'm not sure if you think that's an actual argument, or if the mental rigidity of autism prevents you from seeing the world in all its vibrant shades.

In your diseased little mind do you think all the elite distance runners look like skeletons because it takes less energy to carry less weight or because they all have eating disorders? Serious question.

I also doubt you're seeing the "vibrant shades" of the world as you stumble through life with your head firmly planted up your backside...

I'm saying there's more to the conversation than saying it costs less energy to move less mass. But for the mentally rigid, the domains of hard sciences and black-or-white thinking is the only place they feel comfortable, so they deny anything else exists.

I'm saying people of middling intelligence who think their the only people on earth who are aware of the law of diminishing returns are idiots...

You're not clever... you're just slow.

Do you honestly think Kiprop is just "mentally rigid" and doesn't know what works best for him?

Perhaps if you pulled your chin out of the air and used that little brain for more than adoring your limited intellect you'd realize how ridiculous you sound.

Oh no dude, I'm saying YOU are the mentally rigid person whose comment I was responding to, when you were like 'only idiots don't understand physics'. And I was like holy aspergers!

Kiprop is simply saying he'd like to lower his weight before his next competition.

You're on a thread that's about "fat shaming".... You are so "mentally rigid" that you can't see the forest for the trees... lol....

Why exactly do you think calling people you disagree with mentally ill is a good look for you?

Your ego is WILDLY misplaced little fella.

Body composition is more important than weight. 6 foot 165 pound Chris Solinsky ran a 26:59 10k.

whoa do we know he was 165 when he ran the 26:59? that's pretty hefty. i think i had heard more like 160. i'm an inch taller and would say my "racing weight" is like 158, and i still have a little belly fat at that weight.

He was likely more muscular than you.

He had no belly fat

You are only showing that "sounds good " correctly diagnosed you. You lack communication skills to understand what is and isn't being asserted, and are applying your rigid black-and-white thinking irrationally.

You suggested that anyone who sees a problem with fat-shaming is an "idiot."

Others have told you that you sound like an idiot yourself.

Your odd response is to suggest that anyone is targeting Kiprop here, but in fact Kiprop did not call anyone an idiot. You did.

Idiot.

Take a peak at the title of this thread....

Cue all the fat acceptors that have over run LRC to attack anyone that wants to lose weight. Running fast means you have to lose weight, or are all the fat acceptors anti-science?

i have a few friends at my school who try to lose weight to get faster. they usually end up being all dizzy during workouts and passing out on long runs, due to nutritional deficiency.

some people don't know HOW to lose weight.

Considering the totality of research on the long-term effectiveness of weight loss programs, this might be the understatement of the year. Just eat reasonably and don't over-restrict like your teammates, and let your weight end up where it wants to be. That's what ends up happening in the long run even when you diet, so why not just ... not pass out in the meantime?

No offense but I doubt your body composition is anything like Solinsky's.

Re: Asbel Kiprop:

Which Instagram account of his is the most relevant because I see he has multiple Instagram accounts on the Internet so it’s difficult to know where to find his most recent workouts and other relevant news?

Thank you.

I really hope to see him back! And Rudisha..

Come on Asbel, get that fat off! We believe in you.

He probably not focused. Doping , marital affairs, being broke, suicide attempts.

. It's a long way back to the top. He probably recalls what he used to be, forgetting he is a different person now.

Well technically, in the context of the thread, then he is cutting his weight as well.

Hard to know what Jakob Ingebregstein might do. He might perhaps consider buying you a spell checker?

He is goated. That headline picture in the article is epic.
