The Chennai Marathon saw more than one and a half lakh people taking part for the noble cause of raising money for underprivileged children. But the special moment turned tragic for 22-year-old Santosh, who collapsed on the track just before reaching the finishing point. Doctors say he possibly suffered a cardiac arrest.
The 21-year-old timed 2hours 6minutes 32seconds, breaking the 24-year-old Olympic record set by Carlos Lopes.
