Joan Benoit, the winner, has been celebrated ever since. She won the US Olympic Marathon trial just 17 days after arthroscopic knee surgery, which Runners World Magazine has listed as the greatest individual woman’s Marathon performance in history. Grete Waitz finished second. She won the New York Marathon nine times, the World Cross Country Championship 5 times, and the Marathon in the inaugural World Athletics Championship in 1983. She is often credited as the single biggest reason the Marathon was added for women to the Olympic program. Both are legends in the running community and have been inspirations to women and girls world wide. Rosa Mota came in third, becoming the first woman from that country to win an Olympic medal. She went on to win the Marathon in 1988, becoming the first woman, at at the time only the second person, to win a gold medal for that country.

@CharmsDad
@CharmsDad 5 жыл бұрын
Thapelo Mokoto That’s what known as water intoxication or hyperhydration. It is extremely rare in distance athletes. When it dies occur it is usually associated with ultra marathons (50 to 100 mile events). It typically happens when athletes drop to a walk but continue to drink large amounts of water. Athletes who are still performing at or near their competition level will lose water through sweat faster than they can absorb it. As I stated, it is extremely rare, and it does require a very specific and very uncommon set of circumstances. The real danger is dehydration, which is FAR more common and can quickly lead to heat stroke and death. (Runners World has run several articles on this subject over the years.)

So often it isn't just the medallists who inspire us. This reminds me of another Olympic marathon runner from Tanzania, John Stephen Akhari. It was Mexico 1968 and the last day of the Olympics. Due to the high elevation of Mexico city, a climate Mr Akhari had never trained in, he had terrible cramping and had fallen, sustaining injuries to his leg and head. This didn't stop him though. He had his injuries wrapped and he continued the race. He was the last runner to enter the stadium. It was dark and many spectators were heading home. Word got out about this lone runner and people stayed to cheer him on as he came into the stadium. For years after the clip of his lone struggle in the dark was used as an example in sports montages. The pain, courage and determination etched on his face. I hadn't thought of this in a long time but this clip brought back the memory.

When this lady came in and everyone could see her struggling, it was unbelievable what happened next. Everyone, without speaking a word, stood up in unison and cheered this lady to inconceivably will herself all the way to the finish line. She dug deeper than anyone I have ever seen. I have never witnessed anything like this in sports or other venues in life. Spectators from all over the world cheering an individual regardless of the country for whom she ran. It has impacted me to this day. She is my hero. She is up there with the Tank Man and Rosa Parks.

As for the doping, no way are they all doped. They're tested too often and they're more strict about what they can and can't use. There's a lady from Africa who became an elite competitor in the triathlon, she's one of the best in the world. She also can't compete in international, sanctioned events because her natural testosterone levels are too high. No she's not trans, some women just have higher testosterone levels and she can't compete unless she takes drugs or has an operation to lower them. If they'll bar you for a naturally occurring hormone I'm pretty confident the IOC is testing them regularly

I remember watching the 1984 Olympics. I remember the Swiss woman stumbling in. It was so inspiring and has stuck with me to this day. My biggest memory of that Olympics was Mary Lou Retton ❤️ - I was WAAAAY into gymnastics at the time and dreamed I’d compete in the Olympics someday, but knew deep down I’d never be that good (and knew I was too tall for gymnastics . . . Ended up playing collegiate volleyball!). Seems like it was yesterday. Ahhh, the memories . . .

I remember watching the end of the women's Marathon in 84 on TV. I stood there with my jaw almost to the floor in disbelief what Gabriela did. She and all the women there put that myth that women can't be as tough as men to rest. Talk about guts, she's got it a hundred times over. I'm so glad she made it and was ok a couple of hours later.

I'll give you my take on why it is inspiring. Running/finishing a marathon is both a physical and mental challenge. When the physical part becomes really hard, the mental part has to kick in. This video shows the power of the human spirit, something I really appreciate. In my one attempt, I had to walk the last 6 miles in pain, but my spirit pushed me. Another time I witnessed a gentleman with cerebral palsy complete a 5k (3.1 miles) one painful step at a time. What does this matter, you may ask? Well, when a person has to fight cancer, their spirit has to be strong. When a person has to deal with the death of their spouse, their spirit has to be strong. Every time we humans get to witness the power of the spirit, it should be inspiring to us.

NO, it isn't. It was disgusting to watch as officials should have intervened rather than let her risk her life like this. She was out of her mind with heat stroke and not even thinking clearly. The woman also finished near the bottom, there was nothing inspiring here, just a near death tragedy.
