Real or fake?

I assume it's real. Runner's diarrhea is a very real thing. And athletes of any caliber can be stricken with it.

True. Elite marathoners such as Grete Waitz, Uta Pippg, and Catherina McKiernan have messed themselves during events. Paula Jane Radcliffe took a quick trackside dump, on camera, during a London Marathon, and her breakdown near the end of the Athens Olympics run is said to be caused by stomach issues. Julie Moss crawled across the finish line in an Iron Man triathlon with her lags coated with both diarrhea and menstrual blood.

Then there's Ashley Erba, who finished a televised high school sprint event with mushy poop oozing down her thighs.

Have seen serious bike riders poop

Last year I saw a good looking woman ride by in her 10 speed bike with a huge brown mess in her lime green spandex bike shorts while I was working. Competition draws the best in pooping and peeing.

When it comes to bodily functions and sports like running and biking most athletes view it as simply part of nature. We may think of it as erotic and members of the general public may find it disgusting, but to serious participants in the sport it is not even worth commenting on.
