In all seriousness, the woman has apologized many times, freely admits she had a lapse in judgement, and seems remorseful of her actions. I bet she would like to rewind the clock and make a better decision at the time she chose to cut the course.
After the ribbing and bashing I would bet she will not do this again.

Her planning and execution of the painfully slow bike ride to forge a Strava run after the race says otherwise. And there was a screenshot of another runner that has raced against her in the past saying she frequently cheated by cutting courses.
Now, Seo will have a fan club of horny LRC members watching her every move. And asking her out on a date.

No, she apologized publicly once and it was a half-a$$ed apology, which she then deleted.
No, intentionally planning on cutting a course, then repeatedly lying about it afterward, then getting on the podium and accepting the 2nd place medal and then hopping on a bike to generate data to upload manually to strava is anything but a "lapse in judgment." A lapse in judgment would have been to turn around early and then continue running on the course but then exit before the finish line.
How would you know she is remorseful? She's just remorseful that she got caught. Of course NOW she would like to rewind the clock. So would any criminal who gets caught.
Why would you bet she wouldn't do it again? She clearly has some kind of mental disorder and this world is full of habitual offenders who continue with their merry ways of cheating and breaking the law.

Many times? Where?
A lapse? Define "a"? All day? The months leading up to the race, that day, after the race AND as long as she could maintain the lie?
She could come out of this as a writer and person if she REALLY copped to whatever she was trying to pull but so far, that's not happened.
The race director, if that post above is true, is a shameful cretin.

I remember reading she blogged about her poor decision and apologized. It says in the initial article, Janet writes for the Huffington Post. Perhaps she will write about her wrondoing there.

whoah, what post are you referring to? The second chances thing? And was it written by the owner or the race director or someone else?
Boom!!

No ethics but what a shameless shill. Forgive, fine, but to indulge what was plainly a planned and deceitful series of actions? They should state very clearly that while Seo has expressed remorse, such actions are antithetical to everything the sport stands for, at any level, and that fhe race promises greater vigilance in the future.
Second chance my tuchis!!!
But anything for $$$ right?
Latest from Marathon Investigation:
Better decision at the time she chose to:
cut the course
or keep her watch on
or lie to the race timer
or cry to the race director
or manually enter the run data
or find a bike to use
or spend another 1:20 recreating her "run"
or upload her fake data
or post a half-ass apology
or ask her former running group to stop things from going viral
Yeah well, apart from all that.

Who's Janet?
The runner, Seo, also wrote for the Huff Post a couple years ago but she's not employed there now.

What makes the situation so unacceptable is that she is someone that just put in the training to run a 3:00 in NYC on a windy day in her debut marathon. She is a "real" runner like a lot of us. This makes her unlike the Wedding DJ from Philly, Kip, and the various wackjobs highlighted on Doubler's site.
Perhaps she could get some redemption by continuing to run and getting an OTQ for 2020. It could be within her reach if the B Standard is still 2:45.

Yeah, just like Rob Young promised some 6 day races as redemption. I'm still waiting.
Or like Mike Rossi, who tried to break 20 in the 5K but cheated again. His only legit race since then was a 5 hour marathon, "pacing" a fat black lady.
POY

Missed this.

Yes, especially true if training claims of 110 miles per week, described on the club's own website, were embellished.
