The Galen Rupp Press conference was a huge melay. Tim Jeffreys videod the entire conference for us so that you can see how Galen handled the media attention. There were media from UK, Japan, and US among others.
Like he ran his 10,000 meters, Galen Rupp handled his press conference and stayed on message.
And now, for Galen Rupp, it is the 5,000 meters on Sunday!
