Three-time Olympian Suzy Favor Hamilton says she coped with depression and a troubled marriage by turning to a life of prostitution.

In a series of posts to her Twitter account, Favor Hamilton acknowledged working as an escort following a report Thursday on The Smoking Gun website about her double life.

"I do not expect people to understand," Favor Hamilton tweeted. "But the reasons for doing this made sense to me at the time and were very much related to depression."

The Smoking Gun said the 44-year-old athlete has been working for the last year for a Las Vegas escort service that booked her for dates there, as well as in Los Angeles, Houston and Chicago. The website said she charged $600 an hour for her services.

One of the country's best-ever middle-distance runners, Favor Hamilton competed for the U.S. at the Olympics in 1992, 1996 and 2000 but did not win a medal. She won seven U.S. national titles. She lives in Madison, Wis., where, The Smoking Gun reported, she and her husband, Mark, live in a $600,000 home and appear to be in no financial distress based on the website's review of court and municipal records.

Favor Hamilton told the website that only her husband was aware of her escort work, but that, "He tried, he tried to get me to stop. He wasn't supportive of this at all."

The website reported that Favor Hamilton worked under the alias "Kelly Lundy" but said she told some of her clients about her true identity and suspected one of them leaked her identity.

Soon after the story appeared online, Favor Hamilton released a series of tweets saying in part that she was "drawn to escorting in large part because it provided many coping mechanisms for me when I was going through a very challenging time with my marriage and my life."

A nine-time NCAA champion for Wisconsin, Favor Hamilton is the namesake of the Big Ten's Suzy Favor Athlete of the Year Award, given to the conference's top female athlete.

Favor Hamilton has appeared in a Nike commercial and has done promotional work for the Disney and Rock 'n' Roll Marathon running series.

Neither Favor Hamilton nor officials from the Big Ten immediately responded to requests from The Associated Press seeking comment.

Prostitution is legal in most rural counties in Nevada, but is illegal in Las Vegas and Reno. A Las Vegas police spokeswoman did not immediately respond to a message about whether the department was investigating. Telephone numbers for the escort service Hamilton said she worked for were not in service and attempts to reach a company representative by email were not immediately successful.

Favor Hamilton is a three-time outdoor 1,500-meter national champion and a three-time indoor national champion -- her last title coming in 1999.

"As crazy as I know it seems, I never thought I would be exposed, therefore never hurting anybody," she said in one Twitter post.

In another, she says she is seeking psychological care for her problem.

She closes her series of tweets by saying, "I fully intend to make amends and get back to being a good mother, wife, daughter, and friend."

Hit and then run around the room drapped in a flag.

[240 is Back]

does she even squat?

[Slik]

She's hot but a sick fuck for sure. Saw her do a motivational talk, no, I didn't pay and I didn't even no she was speaking at a luncheon but it was the strangest talk I had EVER heard. She made little sense, and the point of her story was to tell how when she knew that she was getting beat at the Olympics she decided in an instant to throw herself on the ground and pretend she twisted her ankle. When she did this all the reporters ran to her to cover such a tragedy. I can't remember what we were supposed to learn from that cuz right then n there I shut her out

What a body tho.

Referring to a client she suspected of contacting a reporter, Favor Hamilton said, “He totally broke all the rules by outing me.” But she stressed that returning fire was not her style. “I don’t want to be like him. Because he is scum. And I will not become scum to make myself feel good,” Favor Hamilton said. “I will not do it. I would suffer rather than go that route of being vindictive.”




In a July 2012 online review, the client–who recounted two separate encounters with “Kelly”–enthused, “She is worth every penny. I will go bankrupt before I stop seeing her. I hope no one else goes to see her, because I want her all to myself.” He added, “I never thought I would find anyone in this hobby like her.”

so what would be an appropriate shitels tune in this particular situation?

i nominate..... "We Can Work It Out"

[The Grim Lifter]

It's harder to get good jobs in your 40's

[MORTALCOIL]

600$/hour? If you can get to any woman at a bar to drink 600$ worth of liquor, you can fuck her (if only because she would have passed out).

[Tre]

This is yet another reason to eliminate the personal income tax and move to a consumption tax instead.

The hubby may not have liked her work, but he liked the money.

[DerrickRigg]

Same thing happens in bodybuilding. No big shock it happened in track and field.

[anabolichalo]

shes hot but too expensive.

you can get hotter for less money

you can get a perfect ten for 30-40 euros

Haha, no shit, what a fucking crummy motivational speaker.  I'd laugh at that.  What's the moral, if you know you're not going to succeed, fail hard?

[El Diablo Blanco]

whores be whoring.  What's news about this?

Agreed with Irongrip.   

I have way more respect for a whore than I do for an attention-seeking quitter. 

[MikMaq]

Girl was a hard worker all her life and understood how to maximize here wealth. I don't buy all the poor me crap. Girl seems like she had it together. She must of been milking the athlete thing too, to demand that kind of money.
 

It's one thing if she's giving 50 dollar blow jobs behind a 7-11, but at 600 bucks an hour one can hardly say she's a victim.

She knew what she was doing, girl simply playing the game. The dating situation for most woman her age is far worst.

If she outs guy #1, then guy #2 will kill him and Suzy's hands are clean.

No guy who's that pussy-whipped by a select piece likes it when another guy fucks it up for everyone else.
