Caster Semenya-not trying in races

adfasdf · 2011-06-09T09:07:22-04:00

Did anyone see his/her race at Pre? Clearly wasn't trying. I've seen a few races of hers where she tries just enough to get second. If she wins, people will notice and get mad again. She's not going all out. Watching her run 1:58 is like watching someone capable of running 1:53 running 1:58. She's just running a pace. This person is more a man than a woman. Yes, that is unfortunate for her but it is an outrage to female athletics. He/she has the right to run like anyone else. But if he/she is in between genders, he/she should be running with the men.

I'm sorry, but great runners are not like other runners. This quality is what makes her special as a runner and she deserves to break the WR if she can. This is like telling Bolt that he can not race because he's too tall, or telling a great 5000 meter runner that he's in eligible because he's got something that allows his body to have a higher VO2 max than other runners.
I want to see her go all out and believe that she deserves to race. That's what makes Track and Field great.

All runners have a VO2 max, height, speed, endurance, etc, and yes some are blessed with the right amount and combination of those things. We even made a word for it, talent. Talent is something all runners have some measure of. Not all runners have testicles. Caster should compete with the men.

re: not just another runner

Agree 100% "He" should not be able to compete against women. Too bad if "he" is a freak of nature, sometimes life isn't fair. "He" makes me cringe every time I see "him" run, then give an interview afterward...

re: adfasdf

What would be interesting is for her to see how many events she can run 2nd in.

re: Guyville

Maybe at the Olympics next year, she'll say f' it and run 1:49. That would be fun.
