Well, it wasn’t so much the shitting. She could have handled it right then and nobody would have heard about it
It was the smearing shit across the entire venue, other athletes, and all the equipment, to the point where they had to do an overnight emergency carpet replacement. Then going home and bragging about it in a now deleted post, humiliating both Hyrox and her (now former) sponsor Puma as the internet was flooded with thousands of shocking pictures and videos

you make it sound like she running around intentionally finger painting it smearing it on people and things. thats not even remotely the story here.
In a statement, HYROX China said the area was decontaminated after the race had finished.
“After the incident, the organising committee immediately closed off and isolated the affected area and track, and completed comprehensive disinfection,” organisers said.
“Relevant equipment was removed from the venue, and waste was disposed of in accordance with municipal waste-management standards.”
The organisers also said they would replace flooring at the venue to protect future athlete health.
She shit herself, got shit on her hands and legs, and continued to use the shared equipment. It was bad enough the competition organizers are replacing the flooring. That’s pretty much what the other person said.

She chose to get her shit everywhere instead of taking care of her mess. If that’s not intentionally smearing shit on things, I don’t know what would be.
If you have paint on your hands and you choose to use somebody’s thing without cleaning your hands, you chose to get paint on it. She chose to get her shit on everything, so she gets blamed for the thing she did.
Well, she got it all over her arms and hands then actively smeared it into equipment other people had to use. This went on for like 40 minutes. Then she publicly bragged about doing so.
Your interpretation of the story is that she was unaware this was happening?
nope nor does that mean im going to humour your insinuation as it would be ableist for failing to acknowlege nuances of the real story troll
Athlete competes and loses control of bowels, she should have stopped competing for health reasons.
What is the ableism?
Okay, well let us know when you’re comfortable revealing the hidden truth that will change everyone’s mind
I need some context - or perhaps I don’t?
A Hyrox athlete (this incident making rounds on the internet is how I first heard of the sport) shat herself during a competition but kept going and won, using shared equipment with feces streaming down her legs. She proclaimed “a win is a win” and only apologized after backlash online and losing her sponsorship from Puma.
Thanks.
What a niche drama.
I thought this was about Trump, somehow. Wouldn’t that be nice.
They put only the best diapers on him. Very beautiful diapers. That’s why it doesn’t run down his legs and get all over the oval office.
A Hyrox athlete
A hyro-rah-what now?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyrox
Hyrox (stylized as HYROX) is an indoor fitness competition that combines 8 km of running and 8 functional workout stations. Contestants alternate between running and functional exercises.
Oooh.
Puma are such morons for this. A win is a win, you want her to stop? This is a fucking winner. Puma is diarrhea of shoes anyway 😂😂
Nike should sign her instead.
“Just doodoo it.”
This is my first time hearing of this. Part of me wants to see pictures and videos. Part of me doesn’t. The latter part is happy that I suck at searching stuff like this online.
All I’m saying is, if someone were to drop a link to some uncensored evidence, there’s a good chance I’ll click it…
You just search 2 girls 1 cup, it’s a foreign video so that’s why it has a funny name.
Sphincter not so locked in
So Americans censor shit now? Something literally everyone has seen since they were born?
I’m sure you can find the uncensored versions on Australian public television. Go beat your meat to that.
In the worst possible way…
The worst way would have been losing.
Just taking the L would have been the better option.
yeah, a long history of public shitting at strenuous events, particularly women. Her issues was it’s all over the indoor events track and equipment,
Wietrzyk isn’t alone: other public mishaps published over the past three decades include the 1998 London Marathon winner, Catherina McKeirnan, who dodged cameras along the way while suffering several bouts of diarrhoea. Paula Radcliffe, the winner of the 2005 London Marathon, wasn’t so lucky; she was publicly caught relieving herself of debilitating stomach pains by the road near the finish line, blaming it on too much gluten-free pasta and grilled salmon the night before. In 2024 the US athlete Taylor Knibb won the Dubai T100 despite having to relieve herself during the race, uttering the immortal line to a camera operator: “I just shit myself … so can you not get my ass? Thank you.”
I understand this to an extent, but not the post competition behavior.
I was a runner in secondary school. You’re taught to push through pain and discomfort to reach the finish. If 24 year old me shat myself whilst participating in the Olympics, I can imagine possibly panicking and deciding to continue. You have to make instantaneous decisions with unwavering followthrough whilst competing as second guessing can make the difference between ranking first or third. You don’t overthink, just decide, execute, and move forward.
I cannot imagine bragging about it later on social media. I’d be mortified. Hell, I AM mortified for her.

Shame and embarrassment work in strange ways and everyone is different. She’s clearly very goal-directed and a very capable athlete. I can’t imagine all the extremes of emotion she had to feel with the backlash that followed.
Excuse me for saying this, but what a shitty thing to happen all around.
Is Puma a nuclear superpower?
If I’m remembering correctly it was Thor Björnsson who once said “Sometimes you shit yourself. It happens. And then you come back the next day and lift again, and it might happen again, but that’s okay.”
An Australian shitting all over china, you can’t make this shit up…
Na just in a Maccas.
Wow, it’s the 29th anniversary today. What a coincidence.
idk what hyrox is but it sounds like drain cleaner
Or those
knockoffOreos—Hydrox.Edit: Hydrox came out first!
That name must be why Oreos became more popular. Who wants to eat a “Hydrox”
Didn’t that brand come first? I’m too lazy to Google it.
You’re right! Oreos came out 4 years after Hydrox. So Oreos are the knockoff. TIL.
