Men are about twice as likely as women to lose the plot in the second half of a marathon. That's the finding from a new analysis of 873,334 Berlin Marathon
Because men don’t spend every fourth week going through physical and mental chaos as a “this is life now” deal.
See how stoic and composed a woman is when they have the flu, for comparison. Men have quite the psychological disadvantage when their bodies feel “uncomfy”.
You do know that “hitting the wall” is a physiological thing and not a mental thing right? Like you’ve physically depleted glycogen storage in your muscles causing the severe fatigue we reference as “hitting the wall”. Mental fortitude will not make the muscles work well again when that happens, no matter how much you have.
Yeah, if anything this comment would be inverted. Women would have the fortitude to push through any mental struggle and would hit the wall more often.

Women are more used to feeling uncomfortable due to having periods, is what I think they were trying to say.
