    Uncivilized behaviour from runners such as open defecation, smoking, or trampling on flower beds or green spaces that affect the race and the safety of other runners will result in disqualification.

    Does “open defecation” really happen often enough during races that it necessitates having its own rule? What exactly goes on during these races???

      I remember reading that your body figures it should get rid of excess weight around the 18-mile mark.
