During a 26.2 mile marathon relay race last weekend, a 19-year-old Japanese runner Rei Iida fell fracturing her leg. Instead of giving up, she crawled the final 200 metres of her 2.2 mile relay leg so that she could hand over to a team mate.
Idia was taken to hospital after crossing the line and the fracture of her leg will take four months to heal. She has since apologised to her team manager for her performance!
