Do you have to finish the game after being rescued? Run as fast as you can, and go home laughing

The safety of runners is of paramount importance, and this sentence is not only for the organizing committee and relevant staff, but also for the majority of runners.

It was another weekend, and multiple marathons were once again staged simultaneously across the country. On the track of the Shaoxing International Marathon, in addition to the attention of the domestic champion holding high the national flag and crossing the finish line, an incredible scene also occurred on the scene.

A runner in a light green race suit fainted twice on the track, only to be rescued by medical personnel to turn the corner. However, after getting up, the runner actually had to return to the track and insist on running the whole distance.

The paramedics stopped the runner who fainted twice in time.

Fortunately, the doctor in charge of emergency treatment was very conscientious and responsible, and chased after the runner as soon as he returned to the track, and the other runners persuaded and helped the security personnel to stop the runner.

We would like to thank this doctor for his timely appearance, as well as the enthusiastic help of the other runners and staff, who have freed this runner from the dangers that may occur.

With the vigorous development of domestic marathon sports, the number of events has grown in a spurt, and it is not uncommon for runners to have unexpected or even sudden deaths. In marathons, we often say safe finishing, as the literal meaning is, finishing is secondary, safety is the first. In order to ensure the safety of runners, medical protection is also a top priority for each event organizing committee.

There is no doubt that this runner of the Shaoxing Marathon is lucky. It is precisely because of the tragic cases and lessons learned that today's medical personnel have responded quickly and that he has turned the crisis into safety today. However, the runner's subsequent actions almost turned everyone's efforts into vain.

Isn't the lesson of time and time again not profound enough? Has the danger of a few minutes ago been forgotten? Just yesterday, on the track of the 2018 Jinning Half Marathon, a young runner collapsed less than 2 kilometers from the finish line and never woke up.

Are the results and finishes really more important than your own safety? This time I was rescued by a doctor, can I be so lucky next time? If you can't stick to the end, what should your family do?

Doing what you can is a quality that a mature runner should have. In the process of running, always pay attention to their physical condition, according to the feedback of the body to determine their pace, decide whether to continue to insist, not to cross the finish line is successful, dare to give up the courage is also worth encouraging.

Remember, no matter how fast and far you run, you have to go home with a smile.
