This athlete didn’t go for broke though and correct me if I’m wrong this particular ruling isn’t even a penalty served. You simply get DQ’d and is the worst part is it after the fact? Do they tel the athletes 5km into the run after scrubbing the data to let them know? Or I assume just after the fact in this instance.
This wasn’t Sam Long this wasn’t even really LS last year was it? Did she know she was gettting the penalty? If she didn’t your advice is sorta not applicable here, if your advice is simply to ignore all officiating calls, cool. That’s a shit head policy to suggest. But you do you Lurker but if that’s your attitude to suggest- that’s cool.
Again you’re not getting IM scared of any push back from pros so they’ll just cave. If she has evidence it didn’t happen, she wins. If she didn’t, she would have stayed DQ’d. She didn’t scare IM into letting her off. In this instance the process worked.
If you’re truly suggesting screwing drafting penalty and all calls and appealing because IM is scared to keep an DQ vs Knibb/Blu/Ryf and so they’ll cave, I’d suggest you’re wrong.
