Quote
A man identified as Julius Njogu was arrested in Kenya this weekend after he allegedly cheated his way to a second-place finish at the Nairobi International Marathon, joining a long list of marathon cheaters who were caught nearly immediately after the race.

Quote
Officials said they became suspicious because Njogu showed no signs of fatigue and was not sweating when he had supposedly just run 42 kilometers (26 miles). They discovered that he’d run barely one kilometer after emerging from a bunch of onlookers and joining the leading group of runners just outside the stadium.

Quote
To hid his craftiness Njogu immediately splashed himself with water to camouflage his body that had neither sweat nor the white body salt normally characterised by athletes after races.

Quote
Television images showed Njogu arguing with race officials, and even removing his running shoes in an apparent attempt to show organizers blisters on his feet to prove he'd run the entire course.
