Unless you have ran 41.99kms and what remain is just mere 50M to rope..and you chose to just walk away..can you talk so callously. She was simply breathtakingly brave. She tested the limit of her body and endured..and that is what marathon really is all about. Possibly the hardest race..heck without doubt the most painful sport a human has ever engaged in.
You've got to respect anybody who compete in 42Kms of marathon in tarmac sometimes in high temperature...whether for money or not.
Kudos to Ng'etich.
I am sure in every 40Km race..marathoners get tested several times...the pain sometimes is unbearable..but they keep going..you cannot take a rest or a break..you have to keep going...
Ng'etich exemplify most athletes ability to withstand incredible pain. The ability to transcend mere portals. Most folks agree that Marathon is the toughest endurance sport there is in the world.
Here comes a brave girl who has ran 41.995 kms and what stand btw her and glory is mere 50m...and she says the hell..she'll crawl..and that is suppose to be anything except heroic. People have died in their sleep. Many.
