A woman who pooped her pants halfway through a marathon and ran with it in her shorts until she crossed the finish line achieved a personal record

To keep up her pace, Tamara Torlakson relieved herself mid-marathon without stopping.

She doesn't regret it: She ended up beating her best time 13 months postpartum.

But at mile 13 or 14, she realized she needed to go to the bathroom. She didn't want to lose physical or mental momentum by stopping, nor did she want one pit stop to prompt her colon to request several.

"I thought, 'I don't know if it's possible to poop while running, but I will try,'" Torlakson said. "I didn't want one poop to mess it all up."

2. Tolarkson has obviously never jogged with a dog

Or she would know it's quite possible to run while pooping.

It is a pet peeve of mine to see dog poop left in a line on the sidewalk by joggers too focused on their precious jogging to stop and clean up after their dogs. Good for her for continuing on with her poop in her pants rather than emptying her drawers on the route.

5. That's a cheery story, compared to the status of national politics. (nt)
