First, the runners have to be willing to use them. Maybe they were pushing for a good time and didn't want to stop for water.
Trust me, this is not strange to die after finishing a half in that type heat.
Yeah, I get that. He was probably dehydrated, and that’s not something to dismiss.
What struck me was the article said he collapsed at the end of the race. He wouldn’t have had the opportunity to refuse help at that point. Need more details for sure.

I was at the Savannah 2012 race. Temps were in the high 80s to low 90s with high humidity. They ended that race after the death.
From the story about the Savannah race.
