Woody Kincaid posts that a diaphragm spasm caused him to DNF US10k, says he's "ready to go after the win in the 5k"

LetsRun message board is in Woody’s head. Wow…Woody don’t be a hero, don’t be a fool with your life.

So basically he injured himself by looking slightly to the left. Runners really are soft.

I knew that he was listening to letsrun, but his comments on not reading letsrun comments are kinda random. I'm quite sure he was not thrashed on this forum on his DNF. Many people commented on Fisher's loss which was kinda expected, although not many nasty comments as well.

Maybe he is referring to the comments on BTC and houlihan? (Well they kinda deserved it for being so non-transparent).

*reading letsrun

What do you make of this? Does this make you reflect on the content in here?

I hate to be that guy, but he's standing almost entirely in lane 6 here, barely any of his heel is touching the line adjacent to 7

So he got a side cramp...why he gotta call it a diaphragm spasm

No such thing as bad publicity

Is there a single professional sport where it's a good idea for players to go onto fan message boards?

As a corollary - is there any professional sport where the players moan as much about the fans and message boards as athletics?

the "zero time on the msg boards of letsrun" quote is so beta

like i get it, but to actually say it aloud w/o being prompted...smh

dude is just compounding L's here

A. BTC does things that make it look sus, therefore they get trashed on message boards. Don't like it, be more transparent.

B. I never got a side stitch in a race but did on a fair number of runs. It hurt like hell but never slowed me down. Obviously this might be different in a race but did he even try to tough it out for a lap or did he just walk off?

C. Did he try digging out the stitch for 10 seconds and then try to get back in the race. The race was so slow he might have been able to get back into it (I didn't see it live so admittedly this might not have been a reasonable thing to attempt).

Generally I like Kincaid but it was overall a bad looking meet for BTC so they get a lot of criticism. I think this is fair since NOP got tons of criticism. You just keep going and prove yourself with your race results (and with negative dope results).

Races with significant downhills used to give me such a painful stitch that my body would shut down and I would be reduced to tempo pace at best. Alternate breathing with foot strike didn't help, neither did pushing out at site of stitch or any of the other runners world hacks.

Nothing Woody could have done here.

Don’t expect great things from him in the 5k. Something sketchy about a stitch in a race you train all year for.

No need to bash the supportive folks on LRC.

No, it's a diminutive. His full first name is Woodson

Aren't you the guy who just today called another poster "idiot"? Hypocrite much?

Why was he wearing a diaphragm? Is he intersex?
