I tried to make the title neutral since all Twitter posts are highly slanted. Women are seeing this as an example of how men belittle mothers for anything they do outside of the home. Men are wondering why she doesn’t acknowledge them at all even after finishing the race.

I mean, she was still actively running the race at that point. Why would you have your kids run out into the middle of an active race instead of being on the other side of the finish line?

Are we sure that’s the husband? Or is the bald guy named Jody?

Her husband is a moron.

Who greets someone BEFORE the finish line?

Pretty sure that’s her coach. I don’t think this was a hobby jogger. She essentially was at work and her husband thought it would be cool to have their kids interrupt her at her job.

I like how women tried to make it aggressively sexist rather than just acknowledging the husband is an idiot in general

Running downhill on spent legs, not going to be easy to stop real fast. He basically pushed those kids into a collision that she luckily avoided.

Yes, should have snacks and juice for kids at the finish line. Kids standing out on race course for hours and she strides right past without even acknowledging their presence with so much as a wave or something.

I read marathon (I now assume it was a 1/2) and looked at the time and thought Eliud Kipchoge and Kelvin Kiptum just got smoked. They buried the lead bitching given mommy just broke the WR by almost 20 mins.
