She's back - Suzy Favor Hamilton returning to running as head of LA marathon charity team

Wonder what she did for the $150.

This has really degenerated into a discussion of whether or not prostitution is a crime?

EXACTLY!

So why deal in marriage? If we're going to deal in marriage as a country, at least make it a worthwhile contract. Hold the cheaters accountable.

You can go to jail for cheating in a bike race but not on your husband? Seems a bit odd.

"cheating"? ...are you in jr high school?

It is not infidelity if he husband knew about it.

The US has this fetish for religious monogamy that confounds the modern world.

That photo does look hot. It looks like about 15 years ago though. People on this board are hysterically judgemental. She gave others pleasure and made a little money doing it. This is a great country.

It is infidelity whether her husband knew about or not. He did not approve so it was infidelity and it was cheating.

Quit with this US vs The world BS. Please show me a modern country where it is acceptable for people to cheat on their spouses.

I know it isn't France since the last 2 presidents have gone through the media circus for having affairs. The latest one was even married.

Adultery is not a crime anywhere in Europe.

Actually the current French president is not married. They were long-time companions though.

I hope this story has a happy ending.

There are lots of old laws on the books that aren't enforced and constitutionally probably can't be enforced, and adultery laws are one of them (like consensual sodomy, etc). Legislators just never get around to cleaning up laws like that because someone would then claim they are in favor of adultery, sodomy, etc.

I think the only time you would ever see anyone actually charged with adultery in the last 50 years is when they are charged for something else and prosecutors pile on with archaic charges. I'd like to see any examples of anyone actually convicted and doing time for adultery in the US in the last 50 years because I doubt there are any, although there are some cases of people in the military being punished in the military system.

Anyhow, no one is charging SFH criminally with adultery or prostitution, so I don't see how this thread got so far off track. I'm glad to see SFH doing alright in her life. She was a great runner and always seemed like a nice person.

Wiss Stats. 944.16 Adultery. Whoever does either of the following is guilty of a Class I felony:

(1) A married person who has sexual intercourse with a person

not the married person’s spouse; or

(2) A person who has sexual intercourse with a person who is

She didn't commit the "crime" in WI. She was working in NV.

She actually did as she was soliciting sex with her across state lines which is a problem in and of itself. She was setting up the trysts while in WI and then traveling out to races with a full schedule if you know what I mean.

Is it accepted? Are you OK with your spouse having an affair? There will be individuals in just about any country that have open marriages but as a society please point out which country finds it acceptable.

Correct. I meant to say 'the latest one was NOT even married.' He still got the Bill Clinton treatment from the press.

Wrong. 77% of the French public said it was his own business. Hollande's ratings (already a 50yr low) went up afterwards.

The perception in Europe is that these are personal affairs, and nobody has the right to judge. As a result, people do not really care, nor do they think any worse of a person in the position Hollande finds himself. Its part of life.

Its, actually, and American thing. The Economist said as much

Anyone notice that this thread hopped the track a LONG time ago?

She was married, man.

Ever heard of an open marriage?

Poor form for a parent but I hope they all get back on track.

With her wild lifestyle, SFH belongs in L.A. Plus L.A. is having the 2015 Special Olys, 2016 Mary Trials, 2019 Worlds, 2020 Oly Trials, and 2024 Summer Olys.

SFH is my dream lady.

She is 45 or 46 years old and in this picture I think she looks better than ever. Wow.
