The person could no longer win in the male categories because of age so moved to the female category. I think narcissism must be quite common among some of these individuals. Most ordinary people would refrain from doing something like this, knowing full well that they have a physical advantage caused by sex difference, and seeing how embarrassing it is to then pretend-win in the new category.

There was actually a study done on TIMs that found that they very disproportionately suffer from personality disorders and Narcissistic Personality Disorder was the one they suffer from the most.
