Runner Molly Huddle got a little too excited about winning the bronze medal for the 10,000-meter race at the 2015 Beijing World championships, and she ended up losing her place right before the finish line.
And to make matters more disappointing, Huddle would have been the first non-African-born runner to place in the women’s 10,000 meter race since 2007. Instead, Infeld walked away with that title.
Infeld told Universal Sports she actually felt a little guilty: "I feel like Molly let up a little. I don’t think she realized how close I was. I was just trying to run through the line. I’m really thrilled.”
