Why don't fashion magazines use female track athletes for models? I think the women in the Olympics are far more attractive than runway models.

Women who are fit and have good muscle tone are sexy.  The pale, emaciated runway model look is not attractive.

    Because female track athletes are busy.

    Very true.  I still think Tori Bowie is adorable though.

    So do I!  Heroin chic disgusts me.  Real-life (and preferably strong) women do not.

    Good point!  I agree with you that athletic women are more attractive than Hollywood's image or Madison Avenue's image.

    Maybe because not many top-tier atheletes are interested in modeling?

    No resemblance. Track athletes would not put up with this sort of show. (Very not safe for work!)
