January 18, 2024
A Chinese marathon runner who chain-smoked his entire way through a 26.2 miles race has been disqualified, despite achieving a competitive time.
Uncle Chen, nicknamed the ‘Smoking Brother’, managed to complete the Xiamen Marathon in three hours and 33 minutes on January 7 this year.
But despite crossing the finish line only five minutes slower than his 3:28 finish two years ago, the 52-year-old was disqualified for ‘smoking on the track’. He placed 574th out of more than 1,500 runners. Daily Mail
