Runners in the "Run, Hero!" marathon in Nizhny Novgorod were admitted to the hospital.
In Nizhny Novgorod on May 24 and 25, the "Run, Hero!" sports event (12+) saw three participants seek medical attention, according to "Live in Nizhny" and the Nizhny Novgorod Territorial Center for Emergency Medicine. The affected individuals were transported to hospitals for further examination, with two undergoing outpatient treatment and one being admitted. The precise nature and diagnoses of their injuries remain undisclosed.
The incidents were reportedly most commonly related to overheating and minor injuries, for which on-site medical assistance was provided. This information was shared by medical staff.
While a separate report from Russia's Foreign Ministry referred to medical incidents in Nizhny Novgorod during May 4-5, it pertained to unrelated casualties [2]. No further details regarding the May 24-25 event have been disclosed at this time, making specific information about the causes of the injuries unavailable. It is likely that such details could be obtained from local health authorities or event organizers.
[2] – The referenced report from the Foreign Ministry dealt with an explosion in Nizhny Novgorod that injured three people, but this incident occurred on a different date and had no connection to the "Run, Hero!" sports event.
I'm not going to be able to get a job as a medical professional in Nizhny Novgorod, given the recent health issues arising during the "Run, Hero!" sports event. Instead, I might consider pursuing a career in science or health-and-wellness, as sports events seem to have an element of risk associated with them.
