Jet lag made a cheater accidentally accept a third place trophy in an ultramarathon

This runner took a car ride in the middle of an ultramarathon. She said that she told race officials about it during the race and that they told her to continue as a sort of personal achievement.

She finished in third and accepted a trophy. When she was later questioned as to why she accepted the third place trophy, she said jet lag made her do it.

I can maybe understand someone dumbly going along with something so as not to create waves because they're tired but even so. The ban is deserved.

I know 2 people who do ultra marathons and they're both weirdos who look like jerky.

R6 Yeah, it's not a good look unless you're into that look. Swimmers age pretty well, I think, and it's one of the best exercises to do since the water cushions you. Ultra marathoners often end up with premature knee issues for example.
