auburnette 1 Feb 10:22am, 1 Feb 2024 2,210 posts	0 auburnette Another surprising example of an accomplished athlete cheating. Don't know what to think of this, I follow Kate on Instagram and she's clearly an accomplished runner with legitimate results in the past, I don't know what it is that brings people to cheat. Maybe a loss of form and not wanting to lose face? Pretty sad that people go to such lengths if so. The evidence is fairly damning. marathoninvestigation.com
paulcook 1 Feb 11:05am, 1 Feb 2024 4,209 posts	0 paulcook Saw this yesterday and was quite surprised too. Though I'm sure RW once did a feature about cheating at parkrun so maybe she got some tips from there!
Velociraptor 1 Feb 12:03pm, 1 Feb 2024 67,591 posts	0 Velociraptor I was just surprised that she was editor of Runner's World. I'd forgotten all about her since she disappeared from The Guardian.

Surrey Phil 1 Feb 12:12pm, 1 Feb 2024 10,168 posts	0 Surrey Phil Kate sometimes appears as a presenter on The Running Channel. I'd be really surprised if what she has said is disproved.
jda 1 Feb 12:19pm, 1 Feb 2024 16,365 posts	0 jda Bizarre the lengths people go to to fabricate completely nondescript performances of no significance whatsoever, especially when their credibility actually matters for their career.
Northern Exile 1 Feb 12:21pm, 1 Feb 2024 10,135 posts	0 Northern Exile (When I saw the thread on Letsrun I thought it was going to be about Northern Exile's favourite red haired feature writer.) Ha. Yes, I will never forgive that foul female. Oddly enough she contacted me last year with a nonsensical question about the FGR, needless to say she got a very straightforward reply.

Velociraptor 1 Feb 4:52pm, 1 Feb 2024 67,596 posts	0 Velociraptor I once got DQ'd for folding my bib to make it small enough to fit on the front of my vest even though the actual number was fully visible.
hellywobs 1 Feb 5:00pm, 1 Feb 2024 278 posts	0 hellywobs Yes I came to see if anyone had commented on this. It seems very odd that she would cheat and ruin her career! But then the same could be said for Josia. Very strange decision-making.
