See how he runs (away)!

At least he's running in the right direction.

Time for a new sports organization just for girls and women.

Ha, first you'd have to define girls and women

Already defined by biology. The "gender" loons can go stare at their navels and argue with themselves, just like the flat-earthers. Maybe put the two of them together in a padded room!

For all its faults, the fact of having an avenue for a challenge is a faint glimmer of light. (In the UK there’s a lot of complaint that the Parkrun fun run event allows gender self-ID but then includes records, and doesn’t seem to allow any challenge at all.)

Interested to know why this has been withdrawn - is it the athletics ruling on trans women/puberty?

Uhoh, poor journalism. I didn't even ask why Running USA had paused use of this template. From my email exchange with Jay Holder, I gathered it was a combination of World Athletics' policy change and the paragraph on drug testing. But I broke the first rule of journalism—never assume!
