Favor had several of the classic signs of being a nice girl: she suffered from bulimia, which tends to be a disease of girls who want to be perfect to please their parents. She mostly choked at the Olympics (nice people tend to get nervous and underperform, sociopaths don't). And she was heart-broken when her brother committed suicide (a sociopath wouldn't care that much; and when young people commit suicide, it is often because they feel they're a disappointment to others, another disease of people from nice families).
Working as a pro does not disqualify Favor, in my opinion, from being a decent person: she was honest about what she did, she didn't rip off any of her clients, and she was evidently gracious with them too.
Favor certainly did nothing to disprove the theory that the most attractive women runners are those who run the 800 and 1500, her two events:
I don't really have much to add to the story, other than sound a note of sympathy. This was basically just an excuse to post her picture.
And maybe add that at $600/hour, she was underpricing herself.

I don't know, do whoring and 'nice girl' go together? Perhaps her husband has an opinion in the matter?

As a rule, no. But she had all those typical nice girl signs early on, and this other "career" started around a year ago, at age 43 or something like that. As far as her husband, the fact that he hasn't left her says something. Of course, her looks probably have something to do with that too.
There's no way she looks as hot as her younger (2nd, 3rd) pics there. She may still have the taught runner's physique, but age, Woman's Hideous Avenger, is impossible to hide. I initially thought $600 for a 44-yr old was too high, but who knows what cut the pimp (sorry, agency) was taking.

I'm sure you're right. I just inserted the hottest pictures I could find, and all of them were of the younger Favor. But I have seen more recent pictures, and while she has aged, she's still awfully sexy. Of course, I'm looking at her with the eyes of a 58-year-old, I'm guessing you're younger.
But haven't you ever run across a former beauty and wanted to do her just because of what she once was? And in Favor's case, also who she was?
