Dunno exactly what Scam will put in his report but I'm sure he'll mention RaceDrone, the owners letter, all the 3/4g towers etc, the inconsistencies about the first two weeks of timing/recording, etc, you know, all the things you've failed to mention.

I will be as objective as possible showing both sides of the evidence. It will be mostly to document what has gone on in the transcon and this thread.
You know before the LetsRun sleuths, trolls and truth seekers sniffed out inconsistencies and got on the job, then hey presto, things changed.

Could you ask Mimi to release all the video taken showing her running? Thanks.
So this Marvelous Mimi character who's 55yo had a major knee operation a year before this transcon and now has:"no cartilage on the right side of her knee, she also has serious bone odemas and the risk of stress fractures in the knee is high." has:"many more races and world record running achievements ahead of her"and:"We’re all gutted but she’ll be back!"WTF.

More news about Mimi's end to her run. Posted at 5 AM Garmin Time, October 18th.
UPDATE
Yesterday morning Mimi had an MRI at the Reid Hospital in Richmond, Indiana. From there she had a follow up appointment a few hours later at the Reid Orthopaedic Centre. We cannot thank the staff enough for arranging these appointments so urgently, ensuring that Mimi received the best possible care as quickly as possible.
Unfortunately Mimi did not receive the news that her or her team wanted to hear. Due to previous meniscus tear surgery Mimi has now been left with no cartilage on the right side of her knee, she also has serious bone odemas and the risk of stress fractures in the knee is high.
You can imagine the unbelievable and acute pain this has been causing Mimi. For her to keep pushing through it the past few days has shown what a truly tenacious woman she is, however there comes a point where medical advice is needed when the pain denotes something more serious.
Mimi has many more races and world record running achievements ahead of her, risking all of that for this transcon run simply isn’t worth it at the risk of serious implications for her knee had she continued.
Mimi is heartbroken and is taking a few days to process what has happened. This has been her dream for many years now and I am sure you can understand how tough the next while will be for her.
I am sure she’ll be in touch with you all as soon as she’s ready. For now, please do send her messages of support as I promise they will help enormously.
She would like to thank her sponsors who have supported her throughout this attempt and her crew.
We’re all gutted but she’ll be back!
Thankyou all
Jenny
Neither Pete nor Sandy have ‘released all the video’ showing them running either but I don’t doubt they have run every step they said they have. But if you do doubt Mimi, which method of cheating do you think she used?

Could you ask Mimi to release as well GPS evidence for her previous "world records", a.k.a. stunt runs, because these are now highly suspect as well?

I am offering to help clear Mimi's name if she releases all the video taken and it is substantial enough to verify what we see in her abnormal watch data. I have no interest in pursuing an investigation of someone if questions are truthfully answered and requested evidence is provided. It is up to you if you want to help Mimi or further raise questions about her.

Project Update:
Understandably, she's absolutely devastated having run for over 40 days and clocked up a whopping 2,142.2 miles, ...
Hmmm. These are her fianl numbers per Strava and her route map. Her mileage should be higher.
Mimi: 40 days + 3 hours (until she officially cancelled her run)
Distance as this night 2,213.2 (according to Strava)
Remaining distance: 673 miles (according to her mile marker)
Ended near her route mile marker 2165 out of her original estimate of 2838 miles
Average miles per day: 55.16

I used 3 hours based on her usual starting time of ~2 AM. But that should be her Los Angeles City Hall departure time. I am not sure what the actual time is.

Posted by Cinder, Sandy’s RV driver/chef:
Just an FYI Sandra VI has one focus right now and that is this day, this mile, this step. She has not asked, or tracked how Mimi was doing. We have decided as a crew to not share with her that Mimi has had a medical issue causing her to stop her trans con.
Please if you are coming out to cheer her on or run with her do not share any news with her. If she asks we will of course tell her but right now her focus has been and will continue to be on her run.
She does not check facebook or her phone so she is really out of touch with any news right now.
Thank you!!!

We’ve attached a little montage of her incredible journey
So there is no actual video of her doing ANY significant bit of the progress they've reported.
Clear her name from what? It is only the four or five people repeating the same things on here that you need to convince. No one outside of this forum is actually doubting her run.

In your report, if you suspect cheating will you be identifying which method was used?
Reporting miles that weren't done. Not doing the miles reported. Not providing any evidence of any legitimate progress on an ongoing basis. Trying to place blame elsewhere for things they were and weren't doing. Threatening people who attempted to verify any progress. Keeping people away from seeing what they were actually doing. Keeping their location and movements secret at least for qhile so no one could verify their actions. Zero credible evidence that Mimi did all the miles reported on foot. Mimi's cadence and heart rate that didn't match what was seen in the few spurious videos that were posted. Mimi's trouble climbing a few steps, her often super slow cadence in the videos, her very short stride length when moving, even when at higher cadences, to mention just a few of the things.

You should get out more.
