I don't think you could have a marathon progression that says "no PEDs" any better than that one. It looks like someone who has been relatively injury-free who has been putting in the work for years and making slow but steady progress. She was great in high school and won Foot Locker so it's not like it's crazy that someone that talented would eventually be a great marathoner.
Also, has the build/body for the marathon naturally, she is not emaciated, just naturally small, perfect for the marathon.
