(S)he reminds me of Chech runner Jarmila Kratochvilova, whom I saw in the Helsinki championships 1983. (S)he won both 400m and 800m easily and now has the oldest world record, 800m from that year. The Finnish crowd used to chant "Jarmo-Jarmo-Jarmo", Jarmo being a Finnish boys' name. There wasn't much feminine about the hulk, and still isn't, according to a recent Finnish newspaper interview with her. But so what? Can't make these Kratochvilovas and Semenyas compete in the mens' events either.
