When those things happen, I will agree with you. But according to previous posters, a complaint was filed by the British Tri Fed with ITU, where has that gone? Hopefully something is happening behind the scenes with that complaint, but I have very little faith in the powers that be to retroactively DQ someone. And what about all the sponsors and people who contributed to her travels/racing?

what is essentially cheating to get a participation medal in a niche sport

She did a lot more than this! Google her and you will find all kinds of pages out there where she is calling herself a world champion. If this here is what a participation medal looks like, sign me up for one: http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/...us&client=safari


Re: that link: she had to throw in the whole "inferior gender" card as well. WTF???? I'm female and during my entire teen/adult life have worked in a male dominated profession. My accolades (and shortcomings) have been a product of my work; not my sex. I don't think that, outside some isolated circumstance (where the guy was probably a misogynist) I've routinely felt like I was part of an inferior gender. In triathlon, I think that the "outcomes" (in this case; Kona slots) are very gender-blind and probably favor the female athletes. IMO, not only does JM come across as a sociopath; but also as a female with a huge chip on her shoulder.
