I should start a company/service that goes through and edits/falsifies GPS files, some of these cheaters are so unhinged I wonder if I could charge a high price... Could be a good side-gig!

Hypocrisy to say the least.

The concept of Marathon Investigation started as a way to out people who cheat their way into the Boston Marathon, thereby depriving some people who legitimately qualified an opportunity to run the race. If I had worked hard, finally achieved a qualifying time, and then was told I still didn't get an entry, I would be upset. I don't see any problem at all with that. It has expanded because people are now sending him tips and evidence from other sports.

I think some of the marathon investigations stuff is a bit OTT e.g the homeless guy finding a discarded bib running the last 12 miles and claiming a medal. He proudly admitted what he did afterwards.This wasn't contrived cheating.. Regarding people like Julie Miller, Amy Stretton and now Anita Carcone, they make it very hard to feel any sympathy for them. They cheat, lie and aggressively screw people over. Carcone's response was disgusting. These kind of people make a rod for their own back. All Julie Miller had to do was stick her hand up and say she accidentally cut the course, she probably wouldn't have been banned and probably would still be racing. She certainly wouldn't have appeared in the NYT. I generally don't find these types to be good people, I'm sure they continually mistreat others, I'm quite a sympathetic and empathetic person, but IMO Anita is getting everything she deserves.

And you need to remember without ST's "witchhunt" on Miller, her cheating probably would never have been fully exposed.

Combined with Letsrun's investigations of Kip Litton and Mike Rossi, another successful Twitchunt of a bib-mule at RNR Philly exposing Samantha Sweet, and the self-professed Selfie Bandits [Kelly Roberts and Ashley Hesseltine],, and you can see how this double letter thing got started

No double letters in name... clearly this means she's innocent.

Anyone wanna bet that her middle name is Michelle? She looks like a Michelle; more than an Anita, anyway

those messages she sent to me (the pollack)

Why do people care about some douche event (not Kona, not TdF not Olympics) , by some old fat woman that probably had not a clue she cut the course (or she would not upload data to strava). Just take one look at the photos...., she looks like she is walking not running (100% armature from the bottom shelf), who cares? So much time and effort to expose who? And then 100s of same fat\old @$$ hats beating her to death, group bullying and execution. Does it feel good to kick someone to that extent? Such a mass hate/hysteria over nothing, this is no-event in world of Tri. but people make it look like it is huge. Now she should F@^@$%$% ride a book about her experience...

This $hit (https://www.marathoninvestigation.com) is straight from Jerry Springer show, look at those faces...Who do they expose, wall-mart liquor store runner junkies?
It was created because someone didn't qualify for Boston...? Please give me a break...hypothetically if that person would qualify, what place she\he would take 10001?, run fast enough so even old\fat cheating woman can not out cheat you from Boston.

People take their mediocre crappy performances way to seriously....

So you object to anyone calling out her cheating, or her psychotic response to those who pointed it out, but you are simultaneously engaging in age discrimination and body shaming!

The issue being the sheer volume of assholes this woman had to deal with when she may have made a mistake...so it's actually not psychotic at all if your inbox is randomly flooded with 200 jackwagons being jerks to you.

This woman fascinates me. Her FB page is still public, as is her Garmin connect profile. If you look at her bike rides, they are all in the 15-18mph range. She commented on FB about her best ride of the year (link 1) that appears to have been flagged, deleted, or made private on Strava. I found the ride on Garmin connect (link 2). It's a total outlier and does not have HR or cadence data as does another ride on the same day 2 hours later (link 3).
Link 1 (FB post): https://www.facebook.com/anita.carcone/posts/10213779597996904
Link 2 (super fast ride): https://connect.garmin.com/.../activity/2658940599
Link 3 (representative ride): https://connect.garmin.com/.../activity/2659192189
So did she just throw the bike in the car to set some QOMs? Bizarre.

I love this Marathon Investigation website. I've donated to the site because I want to keep it going. I hate dishonesty and that people think they can get away with it. Its like animal abusers.....if they will hurt a puppy, they'll likely hurt a child. Similar here....if you will cheat at a little race, what else are you cheating at in life. She may be ripping other people off, non-race wise, and those would be innocent victims.

Most of these cheaters get on line and brag about their "success". Once they make their "accomplishment" public, they are fair game and should be called out if they did wrong.

she's the one that actually made this public. Her first response was to start ranting on her FB page. She doubled down and tripled down on the crazy. Her reaction seems quite similar to someone dealing with a bipolar disorder.

This wouldn't even have been a story if she accepted her DQ like a mature adult and just moved on.

There is just no way this was an honest mistake. She’s had countless training rides to know she’s not capable of 22mph over 12 miles. She was also surely staring at a bike computer during the race that showed her real speed. And then SHE went public with the DQ and started the psychotic rant before the so-called jackwagons showed up. So I think your timeline is off. Once they showed up, she doubled down, faking a Strava ride and getting even more verbally abusive.

A post up-thread stated that she has a history of similar behavior.

Be an adult and delete them like spam. They're emails, not people camping on her yard yelling at her at 2am. She knows she cheated, she knows she got caught, and hundreds of people wouldn't be burning up her inbox if she had fessed up. This isn't some random person getting selected through no fault of her own; it's a direct result of her poor judgement and character.

The point is, ladies and gentleman, that speed, for lack of a better word, is good. Speed is right, Speed works. Speed clarifies, cuts through, and captures the essence of the evolutionary spirit.
