Irina Permitina

Irina Permitina (Russian: Ирина Пермитина; born February 3, 1968) is a Russian long distance runner, who won the bronze medal in the marathon at the 2006 European Athletics Championships in Gothenburg. She is the women's course record holder for the Twin Cities Marathon in Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minnesota, along with fellow Russian Zinaida Semenova, who ran the same time (but three-tenths of a second slower) in 2001.

Half-Marathon World Champion (Masters)

Permitina held the record for fastest half-marathon run by a woman over 40 years old. She claimed the title while kicking to finish just seconds behind a younger Olesya Syreva at the Russian Half-Marathon Championship in 2008 in Novosibirsk. (In 2013, Syreva would have all her results to 2011 removed due to doping.) Permitina's record time was 1:09:56. She held the title until Deena Kastor broke it in 2008.[1][2]

gollark: There was the "AACS encryption key controversy" where people encoded it as flags and music and stuff.
gollark: So possibly not actually "hacking".
gollark: I bet they used the same password for everything and it got leaked somewhere.
gollark: How do you hack a *phone number*? Do you mean their phone network provider or something?
gollark: You are unlikely to encounter any illegal numbers by accident if they're bigger than 64 bits or so, apparently.
