I would recommend everyone listen to Brett on his own podcast "for the kudos" to get an insight into who he is as a bloke and his training, as well as Sinead on Inside Running Podcast. Sinead just seems like such a sweety.
Great time by Brett. Given his results in the half, he was due a 2:07
Looks like they have burrito trucks in Australia too.
We can't determine who is and is not doping based on personality. The fact of the matter is, Diver ran a huge PR at an age when most people are slowing down, and this is going to lead to speculation.
Have you seen her pics? If they had even slight tailwind it is possible that lady is probably like 90 lbs if not less. Body type like koko I would say. Soon to be a osteoporotic patient with pathological fractures.
Sinead is a slightly built, but muscular woman. There's no way she isn't fueling her body correctly to run marathons. Incredible work ethic and consistent training. Awesome performance.
She works incredibly hard, doesn’t shout about it on social media and is very focused. Well deserved (and fwiw her physique is supreme).
Looks like people still believe in Santa Claus Down Under...
Curious, if she didn’t start running until her 30s, was she doing some other competitive sports prior to that?

People on this post are always saying someone who runs fast is doping. Rupp, Farah, all the Kenyans etc etc. Hell even the coverage of Valencia Marathon people were talking about the winners and doping. Therefore if this time of Diver's is such an outlier she too must be suspect of PED's. Same standard for all.
Both Rupp and Farah were listed as "likely doping" in the leaked USADA report.
Sinead Diver - low body weight. 45 years young.
Priscilla Welch of the UK ran 2:26 for 2nd place in London in 1987 at age 43. She started running at age 32, having never done any sports at all till then. The World Record then was 2:21.06 by Ingrid Kristiansen.
RIP: D3 All-American Frank Csorba - who ran 13:56 in March - dead
