The Camille story is so very sad. I wish that one of the best ultra runners in the world and her husband/coach had received appropriate counceling prior to digging themselves into a deep hole. Anyone shoveling dirt into that hole is also behaving poorly, as now is the time to support a healing change. If you cheat your performance or hinder others, that is a cardinal offence, while if you cheat your image and others, that is wrong ,stupid, and will backfire (and qualifies you to run for President?)

And good point re Wikipedia - we don’t realize how impactful it is in our somewhat unofficial sport. So maybe it’s time for my own intervention - someone put up a Page on me a few years ago with my birthdate incorrect, and I’ve done nothing about it!
