Taren uploaded a video a few days ago speaking to those that were commenting against him. Not what I was expecting and he did position himself on where he wants to fit into the triathlon world.

Here is the video

Sufice to do (controversy) aside he has done some good for triathlon and getting new people into a sport that needs it right now. While I don't agree with everything he says/does. For a sport that (and ST has agreed in the past) is looking to get numbers back up, Taren is helping increase those numbers.

If this thread needs to be locked go for it. I am not trying to drum up a controversial thread, but I thought this video was a bit interesting on his view of how/why he does everything.

But I do give Taren credit for standing behind his name on everything rather than being just an anonymous posters that so many are doing with the negative comments.
