@avonbylaura She's probably the greatest endurance athlete of either sex that ever lived!!! Why should she put wieght on to slow her down an please you fucking american idiots who think getting dressed up in a crash helmet and padding to play rugby is acceptable.

Some of the comments on this page are quite frankly cretinous to a sickening degree.

[MrTomclarks]

Wow. Chrissie congrats you are awesome. Incredible triathlete

[lordspeedo]

I'm guessing ESPN know a little more about what an athlete's body should look like

[jwbrown1969]

She is undoubtedly to best athlete in the world. To say she is awesome is an understatement. Her most marathon time would qualify her for the US Olympic trials (if she was American) and she did it as part of an Ironman, which is effing crazy. She could likely make the UK Olympics team as a swimmer (open water), cyclist, or marathoner if she focused on just one sport. That is how good she is.
