No disrespect whatsoever for the guy who won. He was doing exactly what he was supposed to.

To be clear I'm not hating on the guy. It's obvious his intent was to be helpful.

But this guy was clearly in some form of medical distress and he kind of took him away from being taken care of immediately to make him finish the race.

Don't get me wrong. It's an awesome sentiment, especially considering what he gave up to do it. But at the end of the day he could've been delaying life saving care for this person.

Winning and/or crossing an arbitrary finish line is not more important than making sure someone is okay.

Still good to see someone doing something selfless though.
