Ouch. I had trouble reading this. It was so aggressive sounding that I found myself wanting to skip-read. It’s a very tender issue for many of us women (and men) struggling for equality. As a woman, I...

In reply to George. Equal is not equitable. Each race gets to decide what type of field they want to cultivate and each runner has the option to support (or not support) the races that reflect their...

Jason, I don’t think any blame was aimed at Hardrock in that comment. It may have been the same percentage of entrants as there were entries in the ballot. Thats not the point- the point was why so few...

If you’re a man, then technically you’re racing other men, so it logically follows that you should be more upset about being passed by a man (who is in your race) than being passed by a woman (who is...

In reply to Ilisa. Is it possible that the guy sprinting to the finish has nothing to do with you and he was just trying to finish his race strong? Many of us sprint to the finish and because we are...

Agree Bernadette, well said or written. Understanding equality is a learned experience and requires many open minded and educated decisions in life. Let each run his/her race as best possible for...

Race directors need to stop making women’s distances shorter. It’s BS that road cycling races only let women do 18 miles (example only) instead of the longer distances that the men do. Stop entering...

In reply to Adam Hamblin. I recently began my 50th year running. It’s truly been a joy and blessing to watch the evolution of women’s running in my lifetime…including that of my wife and our two...

While I applaud the general message in this article, I have to point out a sentence that exposes the very bias that the article is attempting to call out. “These are our daughters, sisters, wives,...

I ride with and run with my wife all the time. Trail runs, mountain, road, gravel and fat on bikes. She tells me all the time that when she watches me pass someone, she knows if it is a guy, as she...

In reply to Claire. It’s funny that I read the article and posted exactly this same experience that my wife has all the time as we ride together. I’ll get greetings or compliments on my climbing...

“only 15 women registered to run out of a field of 146. This does not add up” Why? I’m no fan of the Hardrock registration process, but if it favours anyone, then surely it is based on age and number...

This was likely a self-deprecating, woe is me, let’s laugh about how pathetic I feel at the moment, joke. Despite what you’ve been told, your white-knight BS will not get you laid. Keep your SJW...
