Very brave of her - I guess you can argue she should have pulled out (like others did) but this is what they have trained for. The next Olympics is 4 years. They may never get selected again.
But… what a disaster the women’s GB marathon team had. Charlotte Purdue rolled her ankle on her last long run (I actually spotted her hobbling down my high street a few days before the marathon).
Calli H-Thackeray pulled out half way. Still no update as to why. Very silent on social media. Which is her perogative I guess but every other athlete has updated what happened if they DNF.
The subbed in athlete was the only one that actually finished.

And kipchoge couldn’t be bothered to finish. Rather, he stood around to give away his socks. I have a feeling what we have been seeing from him for the last few years is not what it appears.

is Kipchoge part of GB athletics? How does he factor in to the topic of this post?

There are two topics relative to that post. One is British athletics the other is finishing or dropping out of the Olympic Marathon.
