While I admire the achievements of young Mr. Rupp, I have no desire to emulate his style. He seems only vaguely male to me.

Maybe that comment was totally unnecessary. But I'll let it stand.

Andrea didn't understand why everyone on letsrun relentlessly rips on him... until I showed her that photo! :-)

Salazar has more hair on one square inch of his chest than Rupp has on his entire body.
