Marathon runners are disgusting

I heard or saw on the TV or read triathletes riding the bike will pee on themselves and bike, swimmers have pee'd in all pools they've been in because it takes too long to get out of the swimsuit to pee in toilet. Nasty because the pee likely then gets into eyes, mouth. How do triathletes then get into their cars?

They should wear diapers so it doesn't look noticeable.
What kind of diet are they on where they shit while running?
They should quit eating Kimchi, Yogurt, or Sauerkraut for breakfast and stay away from Kombucha.

I'm guessing diaper inside skin tight running outfit will be noticeable.
 
If I was planning on running a marathon I'd follow a careful diet in the third and second days before, and then fast for an entire 24 hours before the race... just to be 100% sure.

Shitting yourself, as an adult, should be considered a dishonor multiple times over what honor you'd gain from completing a marathon.
 
Only A Level Athletes are allowed to shit their pants

How the hell is it just acceptable to shit your pants in this sport?

You don't see this in any other sport. The stakes and money are much higher in football, but you don't see Patrick Mahomes shitting his pants because he's too important to come out of the game.

And in MMA, yes, there have been a couple very rare instances where a fighter has sharted, no need to post gifs, but fighters are getting hit in the gut, body triangled, and stacked in the guard, which would make it very difficult to hold in any tummy trouble you're having. And yet it's STILL incredibly rare.

And I understand that it takes 4 hours to run a marathon, my point is that they should stop and take a shit if they need to. Then go back to running.

Racecar drivers need to make pit stops for gas and tires, they just learned to get it done as fast as possible.

Train have a speedy shit in one of the portable toilets along the marathon path, and stop shitting while you run!

Fast 24 hours before? How's your body gonna have the energy to run the race?

Better to be sure your intestines & colon are flushed out to avoid any chance of diarrhea.

Perhaps I'd have a protein shake right before and during the run. Marathons are usually completed in 4 to 5 hours, right? Takes alot longer than that to digestion to complete.

But maybe not. I'm experienced with fasting so it wouldn't be a big deal for me. Marathons are just bodyweight steady-state cardio.
 
I'm sure it could be arranged. Put a few rest stations along the course, give the marathon runners a free 5-10 mins per contest during which their time on the clock is frozen. If the person doesn't use it, they don't get any benefit, so they're better off using it. Post some guards around the stations so a third-party can't sneak in performance drugs into the toilet to give to a contestant or something.

Sports are hard to change though. A lot of it is based on tradition. Maybe there's a reason they're not doing it. Like stopping for 10 mins cools your muscles too much so nobody would use a rest even if they offered it. I don't know the sport.

I like that idea. Give them some GPS tracking device with a timer and a pause button. And every runner can hit the pause button, and then the GPS will make sure they don't make any forward progress while the time is paused.

I don't know the sport well either and the hardcore runners will probably bring up a bunch of drawbacks to this idea. However, I doubt any of those drawbacks will outweigh shitting your pants.

Every time I drink an entire case of Ice House I usually end up shitting my pants. Don't judge something you don't understand.
