Do you consider trauma surgeons blue collar? She is by definition a "professional." Look up the definition of blue collar.
Hmm, so now your classifying professions of who you deem a professional or not.
If your gardener not a professional in his work, how about your local auto mechanic. Because she works in clean atmosphere of a hospital , you elevate the term professional. She is highly trained preforming a mechanical duty and is paid accordingly.
The real premise of comments here is that she is working full time on her feet. Not part time in running store. Or contracted up to sit home between massages and workouts watching Netflix .
I don't know who made up the fact that she works on her feet. For the last time, CRNAs sit while performing anesthesia. But I give up trying to correct you idiots. You probably have her confused with an RN.
The quote meant this: "No matter what I do next, I'm going to be a disappointment to some people." After the Boston performance, I'm sure there are many of us who will never be disappointed.
Sarah Sellers did not disappoint. Solid Run for her! She's getting faster.
She did great, ran an 8 minute PR and caught the A Standard for the Trials.
She got the "A" standard at NYC (not an easy course). She is doing great. Go Sarah!

She hands on in the operating room, on her feet, working technically manually in a fairly high pressure non desk job. She is not sitting down, she is dealing with life and death, her pay is comeserate to the work she does.
I would say Sarah is ahead of the curve in life after running, not writing mommy blogs or desperate for the next contract.
LoL another letsrun poster who talks out of his ass. My wife is a CRNA just like Sarah Sellers. They sit down in the operating room while giving anesthesia. They are not on their feet at all except in-between cases when they go in and out of rooms.
I have yet to see one sit down in the OR. Your wife may be lazy, or the exception to the norm.

Awesome race! No disappointment here. I'm excited to see what the next few years bring for her. Probably not going to be a world beater, but she could have some really great results.

It’s ok if she is never world beater, it’s kind of a been there done that thing for her...... Now she just wants to get some respectable times.
In NY, she was 13th for American women, 18th woman overall, and made the US Olympic A Standard Qualifying time with her 2:36:37 finish time. Not bad for someone with a day job and only 3rd marathon.

Totally agree! And I didn't mean to imply otherwise. In fact, it is this very reason that I love following runners like her. Feels like we're kind of doing the same thing, she's just faster and doing on a slightly bigger stage.
