    Which history do you think they’re unfairly ignoring?

    And I think the argument isn’t that they can run marathons, too, but that they’re naturally better at it than men:

    physiologically better suited than men to endurance efforts such as running marathons

      So why aren’t women beating men in endurance races across the board?

        Well it is in the name, endurance RACES. It is a race not a test of pure endurance. To test pure endurance you would need to start running or walking or swimming at your own pace and continue till you drop to the ground and the one that can do that for the longest would have the best endurance.
