    As far as advantages go: I read an article in Runners' World (I think) a couple years ago about a MTF long distance runner. She found her times in the same races as a woman to be much slower than they had been as a man, yet she felt like she was pouring even more effort into the races now.

    From her experience (and she was a very serious runner) I'm guessing any advantage fades pretty quickly after complete transition.

    ETA: This is it, in a different format than the magazine, but the words are the same. http://www.pfc.org.uk/files/A_Six_Minute_Difference.pdf
