Beauty queen Maude Gorman, who gave up crown over #MeToo skit, caught cheating in ultramarathon

Maude Gorman, the Massachusetts beauty queen who gave up her crown over what she called an insensitive #MeToo movement skit, had her finishes in ultramarathon races vacated after race officials caught her cheating.

Earlier this year, Gorman turned in her Miss Plymouth County crown after she said a skit at the Miss Massachusetts Organization's pageant in Worcester mocked the #MeToo movement.

Her decision gained attention from media across the country.

Gorman, a Hingham resident, posted several pictures of her training on social media, and has placed high in ultramarathons.

As reported by the blog Turtleboysports, Gorman has been disqualified as the second-place winner at this year's GiddyUp Pineland Farms Trail Festival 50 Mile race in Maine.

In an Aug. 8 Facebook post, Ken Krogsrud of GiddyUp Events, said the race disqualified Gorman's results after "complaints that she had cut the course multiple times."

Race organizers collecting timing data were able to show Gorman cut the course at least twice, according to the Facebook post.

"After asking for clarification from the runner, we were given conflicting statements and she sent us a picture of her watch but she would not send us her Garmin data for verification," the Facebook post read. Other race directors also found Gorman had a pattern of cutting courses, Krogsrud wrote.

The results of the race were changed after the investigation. Gorman was also disqualified in the East End Trail Races 50K ultramarathon which was run Aug. 5 in Easton, Massachusetts.

Northeast Race Management said there was a review of the race results including checking photographs, time stamps, lap splits and speaking with course spotters.

"We have concluded that our first place overall finisher did not run the race course as marked in its entirety," the statement read. "For this infraction, they have been disqualified and removed from the final race results."

Results posted online show Gorman was the only runner disqualified. Her address is listed as Fairhaven.

According to MassUltra.com, Gorman was told she isn't allowed to participate in events for either group.

The website reports Gorman was removed as a member of Team USA for the Skyrunning World Championships in Scotland. Gorman was also removed as an ambassador for Seven Seas Roasting Company, Turtleboysports reported.

She actually rode a trolley, she was also a bit overweight for a marathon runner never mind the winner.

There’s often some surprises behind some of those faces.

Now, before rap ruined everything, here was some great music with a great message.

Maybe she overslept and needed to make up time.

If it wasn't for the helpful make-up painted on her face she'd be as icky-looking as those nauseating legs of hers.

She’s all of, what, 18?

Imagine how much she’ll ‘accomplish’ that’ll follow her around forever, by the time she’s 25.

Way to go, girl.

Cheating in a race? Has this woman no standards at all? Next thing you know, she’ll be trying to wear a swimsuit in a beauty contest!
