The following paragraph was provided by Pua’s husband / PR manager / media contact, Ron Sawicki, and is entirely a one-sided account.  We are publishing it because, well, it’s ridiculous how bad she beat everyone else:

“This Saturday was the Spring Challenge in Idyllwild, CA. The course is  30 miles with 4,305 ft of elevation gain with some of the best single track anywhere in the US. 

The pro men went off first followed 2 minutes later by a large group of open men and then 2 minutes to the pro women. Pua took the lead immediately catching the open men within minutes. Inside of the first hour she had worked her way through the open field into the top 15 pro men and already had a 7 minute gap on the closest female competitor. She road strong battling with the guys and ended up 11th in the pro men and winning the pro women’s race by 22 minutes. Next is the 12 hours of Dirt Sweat & Gears in Tennessee.”

“road” should be “rode”?

If she didn’t start four minutes behind the men where would she have placed?
