Yesterday during the finish of the half marathon, a runner collapsed at 12.6 miles. They started doing CPR in the street. Does anyone know if the guy survived? He appeared to be about 40 years old.
Thanks

Seems like they would’ve been all over the news.

Sounds like someone didn't properly prepare for the marathon

There’s a 40yo male who finished in last place…

ETA: nvm that was a full marathon runner listed on half marathon results..

That's what I am thinking. Which makes me think he made it. I can't find any articles online.

It happens occasionally, typically the event sponsors keep it on the QT. I know it happened a couple of times during the Great River Road Run it never made the news then either.
