John belushi smoking on the track

Taking time to keep lit is probably what slowed him down.

[DoodleBob]

A Chinese marathon runner who chain-smoked his entire way through a 26.2 miles race… achieving a competitive time.

[Freedom4US]

I love this. Sounds like they have a few Karens over there, too.

Come on, what’s wrong with a 52 year old chain smoker running a marathon????

[ansel12]

I had a guy in the army who would light up on morning runs.

[Georgia Girl 2]

What a bunch of spoil sports. 😆

[Rummyfan]

For a fifty-two year old 3:33 is a good time, smoking or not.

[DesertRhino]

At least he’s not a quitter...

[Secret Agent Man]

Shouldn’t be disqualified. Dude has stamina. Lungs of steel.

[libh8er]

He need’s to start his own brand of cigarettes, “Uncle Chen’s”. Maybe he already does. And use the meme of a man running a marathon with a cigarette between his lips.

[EEGator]

Pete had a drink or two…

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

Machismo in China is pretty damn bizarre, and what makes it even more bizarre is women participate.

Probably the worst is this contest they have to see who can eat the most disgusting things like animal testicles, eating baby mice live. Then you got the animal torture which I won’t go into, but it’s the stuff of nightmares.

Back in the 1980s I worked for a fish market on Long Island NY, and my boss use to give me a bag of fish heads and fish guts and he would say give it to the chefs of these Asian restuarants.

I thought they were using them in recipes until one day I had to enter through the back door of one place and the workers who all looked Chinese were sitting on the steps eating that stuff raw, fish heads, fish organs, RAW!!! BLAAAH! They were using it for lunch! BLAAAH!

[SpaceBar]

Nothing like the products of incomplete combustion to keep those airways clear.

[BradyLS]

Lemme guess: drank iced coffees to stay hydrated! 🫠

"...chain-smoked his entire way through a 26.2 miles race..."

Used to play full-court basketball with a group from work - one guy would light up after every break - just damn.

(I remember a picture of George McGinnis smoking in the 76ers locker room after a game - just damn).

[Tom Tetroxide]

He should have worn a smoking jacket for this run.

[Mean Daddy]

I worked with a guy who smoked but won the Omaha Marathon prolly back in the late 80’s early 90’s. Always wondered how he would do if never smoked.

[Karl Spooner]

The year Allan won the MVP award.
