afaik men are still better at marathons (by a slimmer degree than in shorter-distance running) and women start to get even or better at ultramarathons, like 195 miles and further (I didn’t realize that such ridiculous lengths were really an established practice before this, honestly). It seems like more distance = women doing better, with diminishing returns but never reversing.
i thought it evens out again when you get to ultramarathons and shit
