The lead runner in the men's race for the New York City Marathon collapsed before the finish line on an usually warm November day.
Daniel Do Nascimento of Brazil had a clear lead the entire race, leading by a full two minutes by the 15-mile mark, according to Athletics Weekly. At the 21-mile mark, however, the Brazilian star collapsed. Evans Chebet of Kenya went on to win the race, adding the New York jewel to his racing crown, having won the Boston Marathon earlier this year.Video posted on Twitter showed Do Nascimento slowing down to a walk and then a wobble before looking disoriented and lowering himself to the ground.
Sometime before his collapse, Do Nascimento took an 18-second pit stop at the port-a-potties for a quick bathroom break.
