Considering that similar questions have arisen before Sareitha Sedai Send a noteboard - 13/09/2009 01:43:18 AM
...I'm kind of surprised that the IAAF hasn't formalized a way to handle this by now.

If you are from Betelgeuse, please have one of your Earth friends read what I've written before you respond. Or try concentrating harder.

I think revoking the championship and a ban at this point would be plain wrong LadyLorraine - 11/09/2009 02:01:15 PM 945 Views
Well said. Lupine - 11/09/2009 02:10:31 PM 928 Views
agreed. *NM* Avendesora - 11/09/2009 02:36:06 PM 475 Views
I agree. *NM* @my - 11/09/2009 03:20:05 PM 467 Views
I agree it's not her fault, but she shouldn't keep her championship. Aemon - 11/09/2009 03:50:06 PM 919 Views
Possibly a quibble, but just trying to clarify... Sareitha Sedai - 11/09/2009 05:15:52 PM 1019 Views
It makes sense StarEnight - 13/09/2009 05:04:23 PM 957 Views
I disagree Сталин - 11/09/2009 04:09:50 PM 1285 Views
As bad as if feel for the athlete, I agree. *NM* ironclad - 11/09/2009 04:46:57 PM 431 Views
Ditto. Assuming she never knew about it, which remains to be seen. *NM* Wibble - 11/09/2009 08:08:29 PM 429 Views
To the extent that LadyLorraine means "at this point", I do agree with her... Sareitha Sedai - 11/09/2009 05:03:34 PM 998 Views
Sounds like she/he is more dude than chick..... trzaska2000 - 11/09/2009 02:42:33 PM 995 Views
not really. it only takes ONE mistake to cause her problems. LadyLorraine - 12/09/2009 03:19:06 AM 947 Views
It's not that simple with DNA either. Legolas - 12/09/2009 10:38:28 AM 1022 Views
no it's not as simple as "XX" and "XY" LadyLorraine - 12/09/2009 03:02:03 PM 958 Views
I think it is a sad story random thoughts - 11/09/2009 04:34:29 PM 1010 Views
I agree. everynametaken - 11/09/2009 09:20:35 PM 1046 Views
I like I said, tragic random thoughts - 11/09/2009 09:34:57 PM 892 Views
I can't believe this whole thing is public Monkey - 11/09/2009 07:03:59 PM 1048 Views
That's a good idea! Floffe - 11/09/2009 07:17:20 PM 944 Views
Yeah, seems fair. Medal, no record. Legolas - 11/09/2009 07:57:38 PM 894 Views
How could she not know something was different? Not developing a period would be a major sign. *NM* everynametaken - 11/09/2009 09:21:54 PM 442 Views
Not necessarily, depending on the rigors of her athletic training. *NM* Sareitha Sedai - 11/09/2009 09:26:32 PM 414 Views
When do most girls get their first period? Around 12 or 13? everynametaken - 12/09/2009 07:34:23 AM 888 Views
Yes, but 14 or 15 isn't out of the ordinary *NM* Floffe - 12/09/2009 11:23:09 AM 440 Views
I didn't start until I was 17 *NM* LadyLorraine - 12/09/2009 03:02:28 PM 402 Views
That is a bit unusual. *shrugs* *NM* everynametaken - 13/09/2009 01:17:18 AM 450 Views
starting THAT late is, yes LadyLorraine - 13/09/2009 04:24:44 AM 1135 Views
There are plenty of runners who do hard training that keeps them from getting a regular period Floffe - 11/09/2009 09:29:24 PM 971 Views
I'd say so too. Periods have a lot to do with % body fat. Lupine - 12/09/2009 12:28:46 AM 1063 Views
Not at the age when a girl first develops her period. everynametaken - 12/09/2009 07:36:24 AM 957 Views
You have an odd understanding of what's normal... Lupine - 12/09/2009 02:51:37 PM 970 Views
And you are still missing the point. everynametaken - 13/09/2009 01:18:54 AM 883 Views
And you're missing the point Sareitha Sedai - 13/09/2009 01:39:46 AM 928 Views
What Sareitha said. Lupine - 13/09/2009 03:50:05 AM 1067 Views
people develop 30lb tumors and never go to get them checked out random thoughts - 11/09/2009 09:36:18 PM 985 Views
Well, now that you put it that way I guess I could see that. *NM* everynametaken - 12/09/2009 07:37:18 AM 427 Views
Not that rare in athletes. Tashmere - 12/09/2009 01:06:27 AM 896 Views
like i said in my first post LadyLorraine - 12/09/2009 03:25:04 AM 994 Views
I like that idea. That is the most sensible solution. *NM* Tashmere - 12/09/2009 01:07:42 AM 393 Views
This whole thing has been handled disgracefully Sidious - 12/09/2009 12:37:35 PM 1076 Views
