Ohio runner Meghan Vogel had just won the state championship in the 1600 meter (mile) run. She still had the 3200 to run. Her win had drained her and she was running dead last in the 3200. Sh saw the runner in front of her fall; rather than passing her, she picked her competitor up and carried her to the finish... pushing the competitor across the line in front of her. This is what SPORT is about.....

Meghan will go far.
 
Happy to read that the officials decided not to disqualify her:thumbsup2
 
Very impressive young lady. Many colleges will be hoping she joins their track and field team.
 
This occurred in my hometown and was a major front page story the next day :cool1: So nice to see!
