You are the one out of touch.

She improved her best over 10 kilometers (6.2 miles) to about 36½ minutes and clocked 1 hour, 22 minutes, 1 second at the New Balance Half Marathon in March

First off, this was a half marathon.

Second, she has obviously been training hard, and well to reach those times at the amateur level.

It’s terrible that this happened, and it’s shameful that you are on here trying to claim this is the natural result of running.
