Let's go Salpeter Pacemakers head off at announced, discussed, agreed pace. No-one follows. Athletes now shouting at pacemakers to bring them back.

Former track phenom Mary Cain has filed a $20million lawsuit against former coach Alberto Salazar and his former employer, Nike, alleging that she suffered mental and physical abuse during her four years at the firm's Oregon Project. Cain, 25, alleges in a lawsuit filed in Multnomah County, Oregon state court on Tuesday that Salazar humiliated her publicly on several occasions by disparaging her weight after making her get on a scale in front of other people. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10085491/Mary-Cain-sues-Nike-former-coach-Alberto-Salazar-20-million-alleging-years-abuse.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
