Child prohibited from running full marathon

Event organisers revealed on Wednesday (28 Aug) that the father registered for the full 42km marathon while his son registered for a 6km fun run.

However, the father allegedly brought his son to run the full marathon alongside him, which was against the rules.

The event prohibited children from running the full marathon due to safety concerns.

Despite staff attempts to dissuade, the father insisted on running the full marathon with his son.

The father has reportedly been blacklisted from the event after the incident.
