In relation to the London Half Marathon her excuse is even better!!

she had “very unfortunately and embarrassingly had wet myself and wanted therefore to step off the course to try and sort myself out” which is “something that happens to many runners”. “When I rejoined the race, it is possible that I did so at the wrong point on the course, though that was not my intention,” she added, insisting that “I made some stupid mistakes in how I recorded my times on my personal Strava record” but that she “was in no way trying to deceive the organisers of either event about my times”.

Seems like she was lying about a lot of things but I found one solitary photo that proves she did indeed wet herself

Was hoping for more but it appears that they were rather fast drying shorts, or she changed them while "sorting herself out".... london-half-marathon-pee.jpg

There's a serious side to this. According to this French article, 50% of all female athletes pee themselves. In trampoline (I did not know this is a competition sport), it's 80%.
