You are reporting the following post to the moderators for review and possible removal from the forum Poster: QrtrMlr Subject: RE: She was once a runner Body: I disagree. Sure it's about control to some extent, but from what I've seen from my daily interactions/observations of the women's team (I'm on the men's, but we're a very close group), the EDs are largely a self-image thing. The girls are always talking about so-and-so pro female track athlete or elite ncaa female athlete or the female xc conference champion and how thin she is and how small her stomach is and how thin she is. They see the success and the body-form of the top girls around the country and in the professional ranks and they want to emulate that image in hopes of also becoming as fast as them so they starve themselves. Just today, the girls were talking about how Kara Goucher is so amazing for cutting like 20lbs after being pregnant and how losing the weight and becoming thin made her fast.
