On August 28, the Mexico City International Marathon was held, a high-performance event in Latin America attended by more than 19,000 runners, who accidentally consumed adulterated rehydrating drinks.
In a video leaked on social networks, a man is seen pouring rum into the drinks that were ready for the athletes. The images have caused discontent among the attendees. For its part, the Sports Institute (Indeporte) has already issued a statement apologizing to the athletes and mentioning that legal action will be taken.

In the video shared on Twitter, you can hear how a man says: “I’m going to give them a pinch ** Matusalem (…) Tomorrow they will all be full. Pinc ** race is going to be the best ”. Due to the tone in which he expresses himself, it is believed that he was drunk.
The images have caused the anger of the sports community, which has questioned the lack of security, organization and commitment of both organizers and authorities.
For its part, Indeporte reported through a statement that the events occurred on Presidente Masaryk Avenue. In addition, he clarified that no one suffered damage to health, since the personnel of the beverage company detected the facts, withdrawing and changing the final product that was delivered to the runners.
Indeporte confirmed that it filed a complaint with the Attorney General’s Office with the aim that the cyber police and the C5 cameras locate the man who adulterated the drinks.
