  "account": "A Hyrox competition in China has sparked outrage due to an athlete defecating while competing, an incident reminiscent of the infamous \"Two Girls One Cup\" internet video. Australian world record holder Joanna Wietrzyk was seen with faecal matter visibly running down her legs as she used shared gym equipment, including rowing machines and sleds. Social media users expressed disgust, with some comparing it to a public health risk that should disqualify the competitor. Hyrox organizers were criticized for failing to address the bio-contaminant issue despite having established rules in place. The incident's organizer, Moritz Fürste, apologized on Instagram, acknowledging that the company should have taken immediate action during the race. This event underscores that the occurrence of athletes defecating during competitions is not as uncommon as it may appear, citing examples such as Paula Radcliffe, who had to urinate during the 2005 London Marathon.",
