A three-time U.S. Olympic track star made the leap from running to hooking.

Blonde and buff All-American mom Suzy Favor Hamilton confessed Thursday to leading a sordid double-life as a high-flying $600-an-hour call girl after she was outed by TheSmokingGun.com.

“I realize I have made highly irrational choices and I take full responsibility for them,” said Hamilton, 44, via her Twitter account. “I am not a victim here and knew what I was doing.”

Pole vault?

Blonde and buff All-American mom Suzy Favor Hamilton confessed Thursday to leading a sordid double-life as a high-flying $600-an-hour call girl after she was outed by TheSmokingGun.com.

“I realize I have made highly irrational choices and I take full responsibility for them,”

I wonder if any of the idiots who paid her $600.00 an hour have also realized their stupid choices and accepted responsibility for them.

[Venturer]

It is a crazy story and she admits her husband tried to talk her out of it.

Kinda hard on the kids too.

Makes you wonder why the husband didn’t leave.

Biathlon, homoathlon, or heteroathlon?

[eldoradude]

[Lizavetta]

When are the euphemisms of “escort” and “call girl” going to be replaced by the more accurate term of “prostitute”?

[Misterioso]

I wonder if any of the idiots who paid her $600.00 an hour have also realized their stupid choices and accepted responsibility for them.

Can you explain why their choices were "stupid" and exactly what is the "responsibility" they bear for them? In as few words as possible.

[max americana]

Because hubby couldn’t say no to $600/hour cash coming in?

[mikrofon]

At $600 an hour, she’s more like Suzy Do-No-Favor Hamilton...

[E. Pluribus Unum]

WWLD?

(What would Laz do?)

[TwelveOfTwenty]

Besides throwing away $600.00 and the risk of STDs you take with a “call girl”? Unless you believe what the Bible says about joining Christ’s body with a, you know, I don’t have an answer for you. I guess it depends on your world view.

[Misterioso]

Your shortest answer could just have been ‘no.’

[relictele]

The IOC will be very unhappy. They usually charge billions for an Olympic screwing. Suzy is sabotaging the market.

[tet68]

She kinda slows down when she gets to the wall but
after she gets her second wind hold on.

[twister881]

A whooore by any other name would smell...just as skanky.

[JRandomFreeper]

If it ain't sporty, it ain't good.

That said, I've given up buying houses for women that hate me, and all of that.

Celibacy has an appeal of it's own.

After the first decade, anyway.

[BerryDingle]

Well, it’s a heluva lot more honorable than being a car dealer or politician.

[Flycatcher]

When are the euphemisms of “escort” and “call girl” going to be replaced by the more accurate term of “prostitute”?

I always thought the word "whore" was retired too early.

[TwelveOfTwenty]

That wouldn’t have been an honest answer, even if you don’t accept my reasons.

[SandRat]

Soiled Doves.
Desert Angels.
Sporting House Girls.

[montomike]

Definitely “Not Guilty”.

[Flycatcher]

Can you explain why their choices were "stupid" and exactly what is the "responsibility" they bear for them? In as few words as possible.

Profligate carnality.

[Chickensoup]

I am not sure being a 600 dollar call girl is sorid. Mattress on one’s back hiking the street is sorid.

[wittyone]

WWLD?

Well duh, he'd hit it, of course. :)

[Wally_Kalbacken]

Agreed as to the guilty/not guilty decision. But, you have to think that this is the acid test for proving that the IRS is clueless. If they do not audit someone like this they are completely inept.

[supremedoctrine]

WWLD?

I think we know what Laz would do, if he could but start
a surreptitious FR fund-raiser to pay for it.

[Trod Upon]

She could have been paying her taxes fully under the guise of working as a self-employed legal “escort” service provider.

[LouAvul]

I guess it depends on your world view.

FR has been infected with libertarians. They don't care about morality or righteousness. They want dope sold in vending machines and a whorehouse on every block.

[foundedonpurpose]

“Well, it’s a heluva lot more honorable than being a car dealer or politician.”

Damn straight!

To often, a supposed religious leader.

No wonder the country is going to Hell.

[Andrei Bulba]

First Olivia on Pawn Stars, and now this.

[nascarnation]

Tremendous stamina, LOL.

I believe if there’s any tax issues with unreported income, she’s already been issued a post-POTUS pardon by BJ Clinton.

[coloradan]

Makes you wonder why the husband didn’t leave.

At $600/hour, think of all the money he saved.

[nascarnation]

Gotta be great when your 7 yr old daughter comes home from school and asks “Mom, what’s an escort?”

[supremedoctrine]

I forgive you, Suzy.
Even if you have a hard time forgiving yourself.
If you ever need somebody to talk to......

[Misterioso]

Easy for you to say.

[fieldmarshaldj]

"They want ... a whorehouse on every block."

One Congress is bad enough.

[GreenLanternCorps]

Gotta be great when your 7 yr old daughter comes home from school and asks “Mom, what’s an escort?”

[Leto]

It appears she did this for thrills while on (legit) business trips, not for the $$$.

Very strange. Beautiful woman.

[PLMerite]

Dagnabbit! Beat me to it!

This place does keep me on my toes.

[Solson]

I used to have a HUGE crush on her. For $600, I guess I missed my shot.

[palmer]

That car has a perky front end.

[PatHimself]

"FR has been infected with libertarians."

OMG-

Be warned they may favor things like "freedom" and a government with fewer laws.

Concepts that you might not understand.

[PLMerite]

“It is a crazy story and she admits her husband tried to talk her out of it.”

“Talk” is not the action verb I would have used. Not the word, the action.

[Farmer Dean]

Plus,by accepting payment she spoiled her amateur status and will be banned from competition in the future.

[brewcrew]

[OrangeHoof]

This is what the Obama economy has done. Even the well-off have to find additional sources of income to obtain the lifestyles they have come to expect.

I guess that’s another “job created”, right Bammy?

[rdcbn]

Yup, kinda strange, but not really all that unusual.

One thing that really amazed me was how many women secretly have a fantasy about being a stripper. Was even more amazed at how many actually had followed through on the fantasy, at least once.

Gotta love amateur night.

Interestingly, usually happened on an out of town business trip as well. Seems to have something to do with being in strange place where no knows who you are and being free to do what you want.

Seriously though, living out your hooker fantasy on travel is pretty off beat, but then telling your husband about it afterwards is just flat twisted.

[DIRTYSECRET]

A good reason to never get married-at least to a hottie.
