Runner clobbers into the first hurdle, finishes race on his own [video]

The Olympics is amazing for many reasons. Vast parts of it centres around incredibly talented human beings making us feel inadequate about our own sporting prowess, but there are also some lovely stories. Like this one from last night.

During the men’s 110m hurdles on Tuesday, Jeffrey Julmis from Haiti absolutely clobbered into the first hurdle in his heat. People were done racing, but he decided he’ll just finish the race anyway.
