MarathonInvestigation.com Got SHUT DOWN!

It's slightly uncomfortable reading entries on that site where folks with mental health issues are targeted for cheating or banditing (which is like pretty much all of the folks featured on that site).

I suspect that you are being way more insulting by saying this than anything Derek has ever written, the only people I can think of that have given cause to say this are the ultra troll and the presumed partner of a triathlon cheat, the others seem to do it purely to pretend they are more accomplished runners than they are.

Why would any rational person cheat or habitually bandit and claim race medals and credit for completing the race they didn't legitimately sign up for? Why the hell would anyone pay someone to run a race for them? This group of cheaters is not in a super elite category with money or regional/national fame on the line. They're primarily mid-packers cheating to advance further mid-pack. What would a rational decision maker get from doing something like this?

They have a flawed character that likes the fact that they can boast about these "accomplishments", this is not the same thing as a mental illness.

Social media and the need for acceptance from others in (at least) this one aspect of their life.

Dirty cheats. Dirty thieves. They should all be called out. Useless hobby jogging slobs.

Yo, idiot, try hosting your site in another country.

on more than one occasion, one or other of the BroJos has claimed that they can.

I have seen posts in which they say, "the above post was by the OP" or similar, in situations where a single person was essentially having an argument with themself and got called out on it.

cheers.

Don’t be silly, it’s not the Stasi, it’s a ropey old forum. The terms make no mention of this.

The cheaters with mental-health issues won’t be hurt; they’ll pathologically cheat, advantage or not. We want to punish the ones with jobs & credibility who will stop cheating when they realize it’s too risky.

Likely Rosie Ruiz, she’d be 65 now, and she wasn’t exactly lean & mean in 1980.

Faking a run is like faking an orgasm; all you get is a fake orgasm! Enjoy your fake runner’s high, cheaters.

Really ? Thicc needs to start calorie counting.

He’s a fat slob with a mental illness. I don’t condone cheating but I think Derek is a pos.

He’s frequently lies about his subjects. If he “pays” for the phots why are the watermarked.

Most news sites also give photo credits as well. Derek just cheats the photography companies.

Not all of them. Fair use isn’t a “right”
