Meanwhile, in actual women’s sports news 🏃♀️🔥
Wishing enormous congratulations to Becky Atkinson, Hayley Wilson, and Hollie Jones on creating a historic moment, especially given that women accounted for only 21% of the race field. 🥇🥈🥉
Fascinatingly, research shows that the “gender pace gap” narrows to just 0.25% in 100-mile races (RunRepeat), reflecting how well-suited female biology is for extreme endurance challenges. (No wonder, really!) 💪
