Gold medal for Mansplaining
American long distance runner Molly Seidel, who won bronze at the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, tweeted her experience of being mansplained by a seatmate on a recent place trip. “On my flight was talking to a guy next to me & it came up that I run. He starts telling me how I need to train high mileage & pulls up an analysis he’d made of a pro runner’s training on his phone. The pro runner was me. It was my training. Didn’t have the heart to tell him.” That’s what it takes to be an Olympian: restraint, discipline and charity when seated next to the dude without a clue.
