What stands out most to me in this thread is something that is not included. PM publicaly defending herself. SURELY she has to be aware of the accusations.
Good point. That is really perhaps the most fascinating part of this cheater... Kip Litton had his buddy Dan Baxley and one of the reputation defender companies arguing his case. All sorts of excuses, late to the start, left the shoes a half mile away, liked to change clothes a lot, got lost, etc...all of these posters argued he was an upstanding citizen, his family loved him, and he would never cheat.
PM had some weird story about going off course at an ultra to poop and got lost getting back on the trail that made no sense whatsoever.
She's posted on some blogs about running (walking) through multiple foot fractures to justify her slow times; that also makes no sense at all. It made so little sense she earned a DQ from that race.
Now it's true, none of Kips excuses made any sense either, but at least he "tried." She hasn't even tried to come up with a reason that all her times end in :00s, in the :30s, :45s, and she sure as heck hasn't explained 23:00:00, while surrounding that time with 3 marathons in 3 days.
Come on PM. Try :) I bet you think that by ignoring it it will all go away. But PM, LRC doesn't like cheaters. LRC doesn't like people who cheat at marathons. LRC really doesn't like people who cheat at Badwater. LRC never thought that there would be two people in this world who make up races and runners.
Chris Kostman isnt DQing you, Guinness isn't DQing you. They don't care about the integrity of the results.
But the RR 100 RD does, and he did DQ you. Other RDs are on to you and I bet they are going to get awfully tired of hearing from the LRC community when you come to their races... this thead isn't dying.
If you come clean, folks will move on. Heck, if you quit racing, folks will move on.
But you just keep offering this thread candy in the form of races and results...the thread will stay alive.
