Devastated Australian Sinead Diver has released a statement explaining why she withdrew from the Olympic marathon and hit back at the online abuse she copped. Diver, who is the national record-holder, pulled the pin less than five minutes into Sunday’s gruelling race in Paris. Distressing pictures showed Diver hunched over the temporary crowd barriers just after 1km.
The vitriol online has had a significant impact on my mental health and I have no doubt that has played a part in my body breaking down in this way. The culmination of stress over the last few weeks has finally taken its toll,” she continued. “I’m aware of some of the negative commentary during & since the race but this time I’m not going to listen. This is what happened. If you choose not to believe it, then so be it.
