Amid celebrations for the end of the Rio Olympics, few spared a thought for Jordan's Methkal Abu Drais who finished the marathon behind a Japanese comedian, a stray dog and an Argentinian running sideways. It sounds like a punchline to a joke, but that's what happened as the 32-year-old army sergeant trotted home last in Sunday's race, finishing 140th more than 37 minutes behind gold medallist Eliud Kipchoge of Kenya. "It wasn't my best day perhaps," Abu Drais told AFP.
