A decade ago, if a woman ran a sub-three-hour Boston Marathon only six months after giving birth, she was pretty much guaranteed a fawning spread in a fitness magazine.
But last week, only days after running the vaunted race in 2:50:04, new mom Natalie Daniels was booted from her running club in the DC metro area.
The reason? She spoke up about fairness in women’s sports.
Daniels doesn’t believe that trans runners should take up women’s spots in races — especially in Boston, which caps the number of marathon participants

Thank you very much and God bless you.
To the re-education camp for you until you embrace and agree with their insanity.
This shows how liberals have disproportionate influence over us.
The issue of men in women’s sports in an 80/20 issue, with 80 percent opposed. Even many liberal leaning people oppose it. But if you have the audacity to express that mainstream view publicly, you will be canceled.
Where are all the “transmen” competing against biological men???
So many insane people.
Tyranny of the minority
Zactly
If we want an opinion on women’s rights, we’ll ask the guy in the dress.
They can’t have a feminist in the women’s running club
Groucho Marx said it best “I won’t belong to any club that would have me as a member”. People who get validated by conforming and joining clubs are vapid.
None of this becomes real until men start playing in the WNBA. Then we see their level of commitment

"The takeaway: It was possible for biological men to sweep all categories.And why is Schlitz jealous? Because Daniels is a new mom, and Schlitz deliberately ripped out her own reproductive organs.“This was the antithesis of why I signed up — which is to celebrate my female body and to compete in a meaningful way with other women,” Daniels said. “During pregnancy, this became more important to me.”
She was inspired to reach out to XX-XY, an apparel company that was founded on keeping women’s sports female.
“I said, ‘Hey, if you guys came up with a Boston special singlet, I would wear it proudly,'” Daniels recalled. She also agreed to do an interview with the brand, published on YouTube, in which she discussed her common-sense views about biology and fair competition.
She thought maybe 100 people would see it. But things exploded when Olympic runner (ed note: best finish 7th lofl) Nikki Hiltz — a biological woman who identifies as trans and nonbinary and who competes in the female category — made a snarky rebuttal video that went viral.
Olympic runner Nikki Hiltz, who identifies as trans and nonbinary, blasted Daniels for speaking up about fairness in women’s sports.
“I thought the whole point of a marathon was to get the best out of yourself. And can I have fun along the way …,” Hiltz says in the video, posted on TikTok. “Are you mad because, instead of 900th [place], you’re going to take 901 because a trans woman maybe beats you? ”
Daniels, who actually came in 110th in the women’s division in Boston, feels Hiltz was diminishing amateur runners: “She was saying competition doesn’t matter and integrity in your sport doesn’t matter.”
Daniels’ Instagram quickly filled up with harassing comments and strangers started liking data from her Strava app, which shows running locations, to “intimidate” her."
Daniels' needs to be platformed on FoxNews and the usual suspects to drive Schlitz to ground. There's a new sheriff in town, leper.
"But at the finals, with the temperature on the track recorded at 120 degrees, Hiltz fell short, literally: They got into a smash-up with another sprinter just after the starting gun, reported myhighplains.com, and never recovered."
Now get this shit...
"In July (2021), Hiltz shared with Instagram followers that, like Olympic athletes Simone Biles and Naomi Osaka, they’ve struggled with “what felt like the weight of the world on my shoulders.” ... They came up with a plan with their coach and training partner to prioritize their mental health and well-being.“If it costs you your peace, it’s too expensive.”
For now they’ve set their sights on qualifying for the next summer games in 2024 or 2028...“But that's like a fairy tale Cinderella story. I know that might not happen...I would want to be a professional runner through 2028 and then kind of close the book and start the next chapter.” Does that chapter include running a marathon, like the world-famous New York City Marathon? “I would love to do a marathon at some point,” Hiltz said, but added they wouldn’t want to run it competitively. “I would do it for fun, or maybe do it for a charity or something with a group of people.” And then they joked:
“It's too far. I run the mile, I run one mile, not 26!”
Just another autoflaming self-pwning t!t-chopping addadicktome nutjob.
My thought too. Where are the females competing in any men's sports? It seems only males who are not competitive against males call themselves females.
