A mother of three who collapsed Sunday at the finish line of the Los Angeles Marathon later died, race officials said.
Trisha Paddock, 46, a participant in the Charity Challenge Half Marathon, died after the race, according to a statement this week from race organizers.

Ryan Paddock told NBC Los Angeles he waited for his wife at the finish line and said she texted him alerting him she was only 1 mile away. He said she didn’t have any known health issues.
A GoFundMe page launched for the Paddocks said she suffered a major heart attack and went on life support after she collapsed.

Another one?
Condolences to her family.
Three children? Heartbreaking.
The important thing is she finished the race and attained glory 🤪
So sorry for the family. Marathons are dangerous, like climbing Everest. Folks with families should remember this.
She had a massive heart attack. No known health problems.
She apparently walked it and did not run the marathon.
So? The original runner in the first marathon died upon reaching Athens. His last words were “Victorious!”
September 490 BC, upon the defeat of the Persians.
How many boosters?
And she was such a good girl who did all the state asked her to do. So trusting and so loyal. It’s as if the state was her god who would never steer her wrong.
This is totally normal.
Marathoners have always dropped dead at the finish line long before the terminator vaccines.
🤡
How did Paddock text while running?
Who thought it was good idea to run non-stop for miles on concrete?
Marathons are about as exciting to watch as grown men riding bicycles in tights. Gak~
Far more normal than dying is having a bowel or bladder accident.
