    That’s because it is. We’re supposed to expect that a random person had compiled detailed running stats on a person he just happened to sit next to on a plane.

    This is just a story to manufacture outrage, like most of social media.

      Where’s the outrage? This is a funny story in the same vein as Tony Hawk’s various “You look like Tony Hawk” moments. Its like everyone in this thread saw its a woman and assumed she’s complaining instead of telling a fun story.

      Edit as I realize half the comments trying to call this rage bait are literally just you instigating lol. Touch grass.

        The outrage is because the person who made the original post is a woman.

        The vast majority of men really don’t like it when women do things or talk about their experiences, especially if the women are good at or enjoy the things they do and/or talk about men behaving like men towards them.

        (Watch how fast I get down voted and mansplained to about how wrong I am, lmao)

      I’m not sure why you assume the person was random. There’s no indication that she hops on planes randomly. Professional runners do a lot of traveling to and from events, and it makes sense that other people connected to the sport (and likely to have detailed running stats on runners) might also be on those same flights.
