  "account": "On Sunday morning, October 4, a runner taking part in the Milwaukee Lakefront Half Marathon was taken to a local hospital, as confirmed by event organizers. The organizers, adhering to privacy laws, declined to provide further details about the incident. The full marathon and half marathon began simultaneously at 7 a.m. that day. The full marathon course started near the Baird Center, meandering north around Lake Park, south to Warnimont Park in Cudahy, and then looping back to Urban Park in Milwaukee, crossing the Hoan Bridge along the way. The news of the hospitalized runner arrived just a few weeks after a triathlete's death during the IRONMAN 70.3 event in Madison. The deceased was a 51-year-old man from Colorado, making at least the third person to lose their life since 2019 while or after participating in an Ironman event. The Milwaukee Lakefront Marathon is recognized as a qualifying race for the Boston Marathon.",
