Newly minted-Olympian and 5x NCAA champion Parker Valby joins us live in Eugene after her runner-up finish in the 10,000m and 4th place finish in the 5000m. ...
Is the plan to train at St Moritz for a spell before the Olympics?
Not sure whether a short altitude stint before the Games makes any sense for her, nor sightseeing.
I think if Valby hired somebody to more frequently post something on her Instagram (a picture or short video of her here or there), maybe it would grow. Maybe that person (or a bot) would also post messages, delete DM’s etc.; otherwise, it might become an energy drain.)
On the other hand, maybe it’s sort of a diary, left to organic growth.

According to another thread, her Instagram hit 100,000 around June 9 and now has 139,000. Growing rapidly and she doesn't even post often. Wait until she gets all the worldwide exposure in Paris. She is barely known at all outside the US. She could reach 200,000 by the time the Olympics are over.
You'd think all these brands/teams would've been champing at the bit to sign her, but they weren't. Only the tainted team from which members have been dropping like flies. Makes you wonder.
Sorry to inform you that America's sweetheart will he a 2 time Olympian at age 21. Remember all of those posts of yours claiming that Tuohy was the best runner ever because the only faster Americans were older than her? Continue to try to destroy Valby. Her popularity is exploding. She is a wonderful person. Everyone loves her. She is our future. Actually, she is our present and future.
Ritz or Jerry would be terrible options for her. She needs a Coogan type.
I agree that Jerry would be a terrible option for her, but Ritz seems like he personalizes training a lot, so not sure why that couldn't work out. Are you suggesting Coogan because he seems more laid back? Because remember Coogan is also the guy who was asked about Valby's cross training and said that there's no substitute for mileage and that an athlete can't keep improving/be relevant in the 10km at the pro level without higher mileage. So he might not necessarily be a perfect fit either.

Parker was at New Balance headquarters in Boston not long ago so Nike isn't alone in pursuit.

Ritz personalised, personally destroys everyone.
Isn't it obvious she needs to run more, she has zero hip extension, will not be world class if else doesn't chill with the elliptical

i noticed in the video she quickly complained about taxes. so how do the state income taxes compare in the various states where top run groups are located?
