The article, written by Sarah Lyall, is entitled Swim. Bike. Cheat? It runs 5,700 words and details the allegations of course cutting against Ms. Miller and the angst caused in the greater triathlon community as well as in Ms. Miller's hometown of Squamish, BC. Recounted is the painstaking forensic work that uncovered apparent irregularities in Ms. Miller's race behavior.

Ms. Lyall traveled to Squamish, British Columbia, Canada, and interviewed many in that town. She went to Ms. Miller's house and mentioned, “a brief conversation at the front door of her house in Squamish.”

The author used “troubling” to describe the disconnect between the accomplished and well-respected Ms. Miller and the alter ego that must exist if the allegations of serial course cutting are true. It troubles me too. I can't square the circle and wonder whether the behavior, if true and if premeditated, is abhorrent? Or is it's best understood using some other terms?
