It looked more like blood than puke. I don't know what was up, but my guess would be that there was some chafing going on around her sports bra band that bled through the front of her top and bib.
OUCH. That was not insignificant bleeding. It seems like you’d just decide to hold the gel before it got to that point, but I’ve never won the OT marathon.
How does one bleed so much to go through a sports bra, a singlet and a bib and have zero blood on their hands or anywhere else? I also have never in my life seen a bib that would bleed through like that, they usually have a coating on them to resist water. That amount of blood would also run down her stomach, not defy gravity and just soak through the bib. You are a better journalist than that Jon, a follow up or 2 would have been in order because that makes zero sense.
As a person with breasts (aka a woman) who used to have significant breast-chafing issues before figuring out the correct lubrication, I'll note that it doesn't take a whole lot of blood to look pretty bad when mixed with a lot of sweat. I'll also note that at least in my case, it usually didn't feel that bad until I took off the bra and got into the shower, and then YOWWW!
David Monti told me O’Keeffe kept a gel in her sports bra that rubbed against her and caused irritation and some bleeding. So that’s the explanation.

No one ever said common sense was requisite for running.
You don’t. That explanation isn’t right, no way. My guess is it’s her drink she either missed her mouth or spit up.
Try pouring a drink on a bib and see how well it soaks in...it doesn't. "Spit up" is not an explanation either. It's blood.
And for people that haven't experienced it: it is definitely possible to acquire a fairly gruesome-looking blood-soaked scene on your singlet/shirt/bib without even noticing it until afterwards.

Thank you. It’s either blood seeping through or she ate A LOT of flaming hot Cheetos on the course today.
