He went with the lead group on the backstretch and then disappeared.
Spencer looked good to run 3:39-3:40 as he was closing hard, but another runner passed him too close on the outside with 140m to go and bumped him into the rail. He took a hard fall. Was on the ground for awhile after

Imagine tripping the athlete special in a race
could it have been intern Karl who tripped the special athlete?
Rojo why did you change the thread title to say Spencer was “spanked”? Spencer was bumped and fell and couldn’t finish the race. Really disrespectful
That being said, Spencer’s lack of speedwork is strange. Maybe it’s due to injury concerns (seemed to have peroneal issues after sprint speedwork at Brooks), but he needs more work at race pace or faster. This doesn’t have to be grueling workouts, but I’ve seen little to no work from him that includes 400s, 300s, and 300s at his goal race pace or faster

I’m rooting hard for TAS but to be fair, I think the intern was well ahead of Spencer at that point. Intern ran very well.
everybody should be rooting hard for somebody living the dream of trying to become the best they can possibly be at running. I don't know what the ultimate dream is for a guy like him, but hope he gets there.

That’s because it is early in season. He will do what you said.
At the Bryan Clay meet. Karl Winter - LRC intern vs internet legend Spencer Brown.
Race being paced for 3:37.
predictions?
Ya'll are such haters. This is what I'm talking about with this website. Spencer represents a lot of what LRC stands for. Not a top-end elite but still very good & still chasing the dream. & you put up a headline saying he got spanked when he got tripped in the race. & you never chime in on any of the other threads when people just slam him for no reason. You should be more excited about guys like this.

But, can you imagine the YT content this creates. Probably the first thing he thought about when hitting the ground
Athlete Special had a deep cut from literally hitting his leg on the rail. Borderline stitches needed. But still walking, should be good in a week or two. Saw the intern, who was spanked by another modest runner I believe from Colorado St at the end.
