That's why it's a bad idea to do a "gender equality" athletic competition for money. You always just end up proving that athletic men are more physically capable than athletic women. It's 1 of the only 2 things where the biological gender differences are not equal. In evey other aspect of life, gender differences aren't relevant and everyone can be equal.
