I don’t know. I just don’t get it. This story screams a bear, a cougar and some lighter fluid. We all hear awful things. Women much worse than men. I don’t know how being bullied turns you into a pseudo celeb, though.
If someone called me a “fat ass” it would just make me work harder. I definitely wouldn’t thinking my story is compelling enough to be published.
And to address the subject, I find in incredibly difficult to believe that someone can go through 8 training cycles in 4 years; completing 8 marathons and still be obese. Sure you might not be 18% body fat.
Athlete seems a stretch for her. I wouldn’t consider her fat. She seems to be active. But when you’ve trained for multiple marathons and your pace is slower than walking pace, that’s sketchy as to the effort you actually put in. Maybe she just had a real good PR manager. I just don’t see “athlete” when I see the training and the results of that training.
