Her body could just not take the abuse any more. She ended up having to give up running all together.

While totally disgusting, I can understand why elites would just go ahead and let loose in their shorts. If stopping to poop is the difference between a 100k first place check or finishing in fourth place and nothing but a finishers medal, you do what you gotta do. Anyone else who would do it is just a gross human being.
