THIS is the moment a FAKE marathon runner tried to cheat their way to a moment of victory.
During a half marathon event in Xunyi, Shaanxi province, China, a Kenyan national runner was moments away from crossing the finish line.

However, the run last Sunday was interrupted when a man dressed in red suddenly burst from the crowd near the finish line.
They then attempted to cross the line first.
Video footage from a camera placed at the finish line showed the person charging from the side of the track towards the tape while dressed in athletics gear.
But before they were able to chest the tape, a sharp-eyed official managed to intercept them.
The official run into front of the tape and hilariously tackled the intruder to the ground.
It was later established that they had actually taken part in a five-kilometre run earlier on.
Xunyi County Bureau of Culture and Tourism said the man was trying to grab attention and gain viewers online by appearing on camera.
Local media reports said the outcome of the half marathon was not affected.
And now it looks like another man from Tuchel’s days at Stamford Bridge will be joining the ranks – in the form of a unsung title winner.
According to Di Marzio’s Nathan Gissing, Tuchel will be bringing in former Chelsea goalkeeper Henrique Hilario.
Hilario, best known by his second name alone, spent eight years as a back-up keeper for the Blues before hanging up his gloves and immediately joining the club’s staff as a goalkeeping coach.
The 48-year-old has been with the club ever since, including Tuchel’s stint as boss in SW6.
But the one-time Portugal international now looks like he will be heading for a new role with the England national team – albeit in a reportedly “part-time” role.
Hilario made just 39 appearances for Chelsea during his playing days but was part of the squad for the club’s 2010 Premier League title, 2012 Champions League success and three FA Cup wins.

The pair had fallen out of favour under Gareth Southgate, with neither making an appearance for England since the 2022 World Cup.
But Tuchel is known to be a fan of both with the tactician regularly using Sterling during his Chelsea days and signing Dier for Bayern Munich last season.
Inside FA's thrilling chase for Tuchel
THE FA’s path to securing Thomas Tuchel's signature was not a straightforward one.
They tried to lure Pep Guardiola from Manchester City over the summer.
They even made contact with Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti after deciding to target trophy-laden foreign gaffers.
The FA’s determination to go international was summed up by their decision NOT to interview Newcastle boss Eddie Howe.
Initial talks with Tuchel saw him express a slight interest in replacing Gareth Southgate.
But he was waiting to see what would happen at Manchester United, with Erik ten Hag’s future under the spotlight.
Man Utd owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe eventually decided to stick with Ten Hag – and that opened the door to the FA getting their man.
