Good luck to Molly during her come back effort.
Have a back up plan or two in case this doesn’t work out as you expect it to. Be flexible and appreciative.
When I saw the topic involved a female and the Olympics, I thought this would be another article about Trans-Women continuing their invasion of Women’s Sports.

As a former sprinter, I tend to believe that years of long distance running can mess with one’s mind and/or body chemistry.
In both my high school and college teams it seemed that there were always some distance runners struggling with anorexia/bulimia, depression, etc. Almost non existent among sprinters/jumpers. Perhaps building muscle mass and lots of anaerobic exercise benefits your mental health more than burning fat and muscle with constant aerobic exercise. Male distance runners were usually kinda weird, but then distance running lowers testosterone levels.
Or maybe it’s the prima donna attitude of sprinters (according to distance runners everywhere) that keeps them from harmful behaviors.
I have seen eating disorders to be quite common among women who race long distance. In fact there was a women’s running team in NYC during the 1980’s where at least half of the runners had some eating disorder. One of the giveaways was frequent “junk” injuries. The team was led by a prominent coach who published books on running.
