A Woman Beats the Running Shorts Off The Men!
Today was a fun day for women in running. American long-distance runner & sweetheart, Kara Goucher beat everyone to win the Chicago Rock & Roll Half Marathon today!
She. Beat. The. Men!
How cool is that? Expect to hear all types of commentary now. Can women consistently train to compete with and beat men? How much of winning is genetics and how much of it is psychology?
Did I mention she beat her nearest competitor by 20 seconds?
I am very happy for Kara and hope she enjoys the limelight because it will be squarely on her shoulders the next few weeks and her next few races. She is scheduled to compete for the World Marathon title in Berlin on August 23rd.
I hope there is a little girl out there who saw her heroics and will become inspired to win the race. Not just win the women’s division.
Do you think women can consistently beat men? Would love your comments.
Here’s the listing of the top 10 finishers for men and women.
