Ultrarunner Uses Car to Cheat in Race 

Was this one of the BMW races?

She was firing on all cylinders

Four wheel drive.

It happened at about 40 miles.

Amen!

Shes a cheat

​@@michaelmcginley7930 It is also shocking that she had the gall to accept the 3rd place trophy and if her 'friend' innocently offered the 'injured' runner a lift why did she not expose her or at least tell her to fess up? Maybe she was more of a conspirator than an innocent 'friend'.

She did find a way

So why not just risk a scandal and getting banned for life instead? Makes zero sense.

@@guardiane I agree…I will never be able rationalize why someone would cheat in an event that is so closely monitored.

And don’t get caught. That’s where the art of cheating matters.

Whats funny is, based on how she got caught, if she came into the race planning to cheat i think shed get away with it

Just. Don’t. Cheat.

Cheating in an ultra race is definitely not the same thing as pretending to be a soldier lol

Probably has more to do with it being her career and trying to make a living at it

​​@@Supermoneygang12 Yeah pretending to be a soldier is mostly just an inconvenience and obnoxious. Cheating in a competition is straight up fraud

@@mattjk5299 The only reason we know about stolen valour is the enormous amount of monetary and medical fraud created by it, but I take your point.

@@BuJammy Well, yeah you're right. Ultimately fraud is fraud, especially when the victim is every day people rather than a faceless organization and it preys on people's goodwill regardless of anyone's personal feelings about sport or military service or whatever. I'll grant all of that.

You absolute legend

Yes, do tell. There's a lot like that around Cape Town, but this isn't it.

Zakrzewski qualified in medicine at the University of Cambridge ( MB BChir 1999).[16] She works as a general practitioner in Woy Woy, New South Wales, Australia.[17][18] Cheating at a sport is NOT a criminal offence. You think a doctor playing football and getting a red card would be banned? Get a grip please.

@@Biffo1262I would not trust a doctor who knowingly cheats in checkers and paints it as a “misunderstanding” (despite making no attempt to rectify the situation) let alone something highly competitive, difficult, and highly publicized. It doesn’t mean she cheated her degree or that she should have her licence taken. It DOES show that her judgement is questionable and some (including me) would say it makes her seem untrustworthy. You’ve no doubt noticed there are many doctors in Australia and most of them don’t get themselves embroidered in any sort of public scandals. It could be the one bad thing she does in her life or it could even be a mental health episode, but she’s opened herself up to scrutiny regardless. But aside from that, the person you’re condescending to is making a factual statement about something they read in an article, without even giving their opinion on it. In the future, please avoid making strawmen arguments to debate people who aren’t even arguing, we’d all appreciate it. thanks!

If doctors had to be “of good character” here in the states, we wouldn’t be left with a whole lotta doctors…

​@@Biffo1262 While it's very unlikely that cheating in a marathon would result in someone's career as a doctor being affected; surely you can't actually think that it can be compared to getting a red card in a football match.

Yeah or Secto Rally Finland

Scotch is wonderful amber liquid.. People from Scotland are called "Scots".

Ruiz took the subway for a lot further than half a mile. You're probably misremembering as she jumped out of the crowd with a half mile to go to cross the finish line.

@waltblackadar4690 I believe your right. Didn't she hop on at Kenmore square?

I'm not sure why they call it "running" when they're going that slow.

😂 his mustache will soak up all the injustice

*Polish

Boo hoo

As an ultra runner with 12 belt buckles which represents 100 mile ultra .....that is COMPLETE Rubbish!!! I realize you wanna pretend shes innocent but shes Not. She knew!! Been completely tired at the end of my 100s but you KNOW whats going on. She was deliberate!!!!!!

She kept the lie going for three days.your either stupid ot comlicit

if she’d copped to it after a good night’s sleep, I could buy that. What I can’t buy is that running an ultramarathon renders you so incoherent that you’re unable to think properly for days. It would definitely be awkward, but she’s doctor: on the short list of people who should be able admit their mistakes when the only consequence is looking foolish, doctor would be pretty high up there.

You’re actually right. There are a lot of facts in this case that have never been reported properly (or at all). But of course most social media commentators don’t care about that!

What a load of rubbish. From Lance Amstrong to Barry Bonds you can fill books with a list of blokes who cheat.

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

do what
