Incident șocant la o cursă din China: atleta s-a umplut de propriile fecale în timp ce alerga. „N-am voie să scuip, dar pot să fac pe mine?”

A shocking incident occurred during a HYROX competition in China, where Australian athlete Joanna Wetshik continued to run despite severe digestive issues, resulting in contamination on the course. Wetshik won the race but was later hospitalized for treatment. The decision not to halt the competition raised hygiene concerns among participants, as others continued to use contaminated equipment. Organizers removed the affected gear and cleaned the area for the next day's event, admitting that their protocols for biological contamination were inadequate. HYROX condemned threats against Wetshik and emphasized the need for clarity in handling such situations. However, many criticized the response, calling for accountability and better safety measures for all athletes.
