And if it was a Russian athlete who held a World Record.

What would the BBC say about that ??

Um, I don't know. Ask them perhaps?

"You take the blue pill, the story ends. You wake up and believe no one competed before 2005. You take the red pill, you stay in reality, and you will remember how deep the rabbit hole goes. Of course the problem is that some took the other pills which is why we are in this predicament in the first place" sub-edit of Morpheus

Looks like she is going to lose her world record because of her past mis-demeanour and is busy moaning and crying about it.

I agree with the new criteria and see no reason why a clean athlete won't be able to adhere to them

What past mis-demeanour are you referring to?

The highlight of her marathon running is taking a crap at the side of the road live of television.

Didn't even know about that and thought you were yanking my chain, so to speak.

Have to say it sounds more 'Great North Run' than 'London Marathon'

To put this in context, I believe hand-timed races have long been excluded from "World Record" times.

What about my London marathon in under four hours....I'm not bl**dy doing that again.

Unless you had popped one out on the side of the road you will no longer meet the criteria
