Who is making excuses? It was a freak injury.

Or, like you say, whenever someone is on goal pace for the marathon halfway in, their soleus muscle explodes. That makes perfect sense. There have been countless examples of this phenomenon. You should have seen the bodies strewn around Newton! Those idiots won't make that mistake again - running goal pace LIKE IDIOTS.


That is not a freak injury. Only an idiot would believe that. The injury surely had it's origin in some aspect of her training leading up to the race. As you said, running a marathon at MGP pace should not lead to injury just over halfway through the effort. Think about it.
