@kingofthehillxl @smokey_burner @Benjamin_Kolar @thesarahkelly @pastthefalls21 @leftyvegan This study disproves that myth and notes that the fastest men were 17-20% faster than the fastest women for all finishes between 50 miles and 3100 miles. https://t.
@_alice_evans @ed_hagen There is no endurance advantage even after 200 miles. Men are still strictly better. Men still have 20% better records on every ultramarathon event. https://t.co/i0L9KEzkZ2
@joemt @Blackadder04181 @sarah_cone @Martina This is incorrect. The gap at the top remains the same (and is even larger in some cases) all the way up to hundreds and even thousands of miles: https://t.co/3dqm71h6SG
@sarah_cone @TalkTervosaurus @9113iiinfinite @jy4098 That paper is on select races which is like saying since my wife beat all the men at a turkey trot, women are faster. With ultras having less depth at the top, this effect is exaggerated. When we loo
@councilofbobs @LadyBlackwel @TheRealOadara @BadWritingTakes More evidence: https://t.co/iJc6AxHOqJ So if you accept that humans hunted by exhausting prey, men may have more endurance but it's not enough to matter in most cases for hunting.
@lowco2 @ChrisWillx @sweatscience ”To summarize, the fastest men were ~17%–20% faster than the fastest women for all distances from 50 miles to 3,100 miles.” https://t.co/VpmdUwEPtD
@minusplnp @halllie3433 @Unicornifull @rdean101 Here is a scientific study to prove that males are faster than females in long distance running. Get it yet? https://t.co/H5REvgI0Pr
@AfricaPizza @MikeFuchs01 @HeatherRoseRya1 @ledow2 @JohnCleese @Scienceofsport You posted a shoddy pop-sci article. Here is actual published research showing the current evidence https://t.co/LsfsLpY5Oi
@spikesandspokes @BarbaraRKay The linear decrease in sex difference for 50-mile and 100-mile events may suggest that women are reducing the sex gap for these distances. From https://t.co/0haaiqNeuH
@quodinfrequens @OyvindSandbakk @Scienceofsport Sex differences do not disappear at ultramarathon distances. Check the records! And see: https://t.co/wBRUE5U9Vp
@Louise_m_perry @blablafishcakes I'm sorry to disappoint, but that's just because there are fewer participants and some women overlap on the bimodal distribution. "To summarize, the fastest men were ~17%–20% faster than the fastest women for all distances

"The linear decrease in sex difference for 50-mile and 100-mile events may suggest that women are reducing the sex gap for these distances." Considering women were banned from running marathons as recently as 1967, that's impressive.
@FondOfBeetles @Scienceofsport @elliscashmore Ellis knows it's not true. I've shared this think with him several times. The problem is he doesn't care if it's true or not. Which is a bit of a worry.... https://t.co/eAi20OGhVz
@lascapigliata8 @elliscashmore Ellis already knows this but doesn't care. I can say that will some certainty as i showed him proof of it, repeatedly, months ago. https://t.co/Td7vovJUl2

@sophie_r_allen @dollydhalay1 @JayneEEgerton @FondOfBeetles @elliscashmore @JeremyVineOn5 Well, quite. On ultra endurance his tweets are demonstrably false. See here where n = 128k which seems a more than reasonable sample size https://t.co/eAi20OGhVz
@chrisness70 Cheers. Ultra endurance events can be a bit different as it's mental strength as well as physical. Sex differences still totally exist if you look at wider data though. https://t.co/nva1vWqqAL
@elliscashmore You keep ignoring the evidence, Ellis. Why is this? I'm starting to think you might be a misogynist. Also, you can't spell #ultramarathon. @SwipeWright @FondOfBeetles https://t.co/HTnD8zG4UB
@elliscashmore @FinancialTimes Perhaps because, on occasion, extreme endurance races can be won with pacing, nutrition / hydration strategies, mental strength etc which aren't sexed attributes? But guess what? When you look more generally, that pesky sex
