A Cheater at the Go! St. Louis Marathon this past weekend (Read 87 times)

    I have a hunch she wasn't doing this for the win. I would bet she just wanted to get a BQ time or something like that. The look on her face during the post-race pictures was one of "oh shit" rather than smiles, etc. She might have jumped into the race thinking she was far enough back to pull it off again.

     

    I mean, if she finished 27th or 135th with her BQ time no one would (probably) dig into it. I will admit that finishing 3rd last year and not being found out is a little odd. Shame on the race officials for not checking at least your top finishers.

      But his bib would not be hidden, every race official on the course would remember him, and there would be gazillions of pics of him taken by the photographers Smile

       

      I stick out like a sore thumb so I could never get away with it. lol

       

      It seems as if we are talking about this every year. When will these people learn man.
