The Runner Who Said "I Am A Woman": Mona Sulaiman

"Sulaiman is at the end of her rope. Her mental health frays at the edges. Suddenly the excited crowds were whispering behind her back. Suddenly, missives from once adoring fans were replaced by invasive questions about what’s between her legs and threats of violence.  Suddenly, the media, locally and abroad, that had called her the Fastest Woman in Asia, were now calling her a potential fraud and crossdresser."  We revisit one of our subjects from our pilot season -- Mona Sulaiman, once the Asia's sprint queen.    ...
