MT can I ask perhaps a delicate question and if it's tone deaf tell me to stfu and I gladly will. : ^ )

I know for many years you were quite the active runner. Since you started your transition did you keep up with that? if you did continue running and/or resume running at some point did the physical changes you went through have a noticeable impact? I'm not asking this from that lame conversation about "competing against women" I'm just curious overall if it was difficult for you to get back into it, and did you find yourself having to adjust your routines.

I slowed way down. My half/25K times were 15 minutes slower on average. Also, because I overdid it, I lost the cartilage at the talonavicular joint on my right foot, leaving me in immense pain, and I was forced into retirement after a joint fusion that never fused.

Wow - thanks for the reply and sorry you had to go through that. Especially since running was something you enjoyed.

Amy lost tonight; didn't get the final Jeopardy question.

But my community is really proud of her and I am grateful for her positive representation of us

An impressive run. Everyone will be looking to the matchup between her and Matt Amodio during TOC if it can come to pass.

Also, the guy who beat her looks like a character from the board game Guess Who.

I've been on this board for 17 years. In that time, I've survived:

Extreme swings in weight, never really achieving maintenance until last year.

After a surgical wound popped open May 2010 in a Chicago hotel room, I didn't know I bled all night until I woke up with the sheets soaked in blood. I was taken to a local ER.

Two car accidents, one of which gave me a concussion and the other one gave me a sharp stabbing pain in my left him. Had the (grrrr) who hit me in that one going 55 on a suspended license hit me square in the door, I'd have been killed. Instead he hit me in the driver's side fender, causing me to spin. I shook glass out of my dress after that.

3 rounds of sciatica.

Being taken from a race course while running due to dehydration. Twice.

All tied together with a depressed, bipolar, anxious, ADHD, addictive, trauma brain constantly screaming "F YOU I WON'T DO WHAT YOU TELL ME, MOTHER F'ER!"

Given that reason says I should have died a few years ago at best, I'm taking this time as bonus time and I've been playing with house money.

Also you're a Lions fan, which doesn't help!

She seems amazing. The Jackie Robinsons should be celebrated for their contribution to pushing back the curtain of hatred and exposing how little, feeble, and cowardly the bigots are.

It's nothing against you lovelies in particular, but I've had it with Day of Visibility and Awareness Week... I'd honestly like a "Day of Shut The F Up and Leave Us Alone If You're Not Helping." Because awareness and visibility are no longer the problem. We're all aware at this point.

Now, explain the Penn swimmer, and the resentment via the biological women there.

(And don't pretend to have "blocked" me... Who's the actual intellectual coward here?)

What’s to explain? They’re getting beaten by a faster woman and they’re disappointed. Tale as old as time.

Exactly. They can pick a different sport if they don't like the rules. Fuck em.

edit: to be clear, "they" is referring to the ladies who are upset they lost to a faster woman.

Correction, they are getting beat by a faster Trans Women.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...cker-room.html

'It's definitely awkward because Lia still has male body parts and is still attracted to women,' one swimmer on the team told DailyMail.com in an exclusive interview.

https://nypost.com/2022/01/27/teamm...room-with-trans-upenn-swimmer-lia-thomas/amp/

Thomas, 22, who spent the previous three years swimming with the men’s team before she began transitioning to a woman,

Can anyone articulate why there shouldn’t be a Trans Division?
