Dem Runners

I just watched one of the track competitions in Beijing. The women.
That Veronica, she can really go. I was watching her and Allison Felix. Veronica, she looked like she was pounding the pavement. She ran like she was angry almost. Like I would not want to get in a fight with her. She would beat me up. Give me a Jamaican beat down. I bet she gets to eat lots of beef patties. Don't they have to eat lots of carbs? Let me stop. Allison was more dainty with the running. I don't know much about track. I'm just describing how they looked running side by side.

The commentator kept saying Allison didn't look like herself etc.....I started to wonder, what do these women do when they are on their period? I mean what if its the first day of your period when you are in a race for the gold medal? I wonder do they take bc pills to try to move the period around. Or get that shot or that patch that cancels your period or something. I mean you can not run LIKE THAT with a pad or tampon. I know I'm being real stupid. I mean most women I know have some sort of discomfort around their period. Or do they not even get periods because they are soo muscular? No, I bet they get periods, but they are painless because they exercise so much.
