Female Triad Yahoo group for endurance athletes

Hi ladies -

I have a friend who is an ultrarunner and is looking to start a Yahoo group for endurance athletes who have experience, are interested in or have a connection to the Female Athlete Traid. See below for the mail she sent. If you’d like to get in touch with her either PM me or reply to this post and I’ll connect you. I will also cross post this to the tri-forum.

While there are a few online discussions at various forums regarding the Fem**ale Athlete Triad, I have not found any dedicated to ultra runners. I want to create a group comprised of ultra runners and other ultra endurance athletes, and I encourage the participation of men as well because one need not be female to offer helpful advice, both medical and otherwise, and to provide support to those of us who are affected by this.

**I am also seeking another individual (female or male), either someone who identifies firsthand with the Female Athlete Triad and is an ultra runner (you need not be an allied health professional or coach), or a someone who may not identify firsthand, male or female, but is interested in informing, educating and supporting us.

**I’m looking for a co-moderator for the group to help me present scientifically sound information. Again, it doesn’t have to be a female. **

Was this ever started?
If so … link?
Thanks!

Hi -

This was never started, to my knowledge.

Bummer.
Thanks!

I know this was a long time since it was posted, but I was looking for a similar supportive group for athletes dealing with REDs as found it can be quite isolating and confusing if you don’t want to share publically. I created a to share resources, tips and stories of recovery. I hope it is helpful, please join if you are interested and this involves you :slight_smile: https://discord.gg/QsxRy6K6
