Mexican Politician Caught Cheating in Berlin Marathon

Former Mexican Presidential candidate Roberto Madrazo appeared to have not only won the race in his age group, but also finished in a surprising 2:41:12.

But electronic monitoring devices showed he had skipped two checkpoints, and at one point would have had to have covered nine miles in just 21 minutes.

Others took note of the excessive amount of clothing he was wearing for a man who had just run 26.2 miles, and alerted race officials they might have a cheater on their hands.

Well, as I've noted many times before (to others, not to you morons), if you ain't cheatin, you ain't tryin.

h/t James, who is all into this crazy "running" fad too, and completely bought into that dietary fat bullshit.
