In California, 31-year-old running enthusiast Tamara Thorlkason was completing the Long Beach Mountains 2 Beach Marathon in Ojai when she found herself in a difficult situation.

This is reported by the Daily Star.

However, the woman was not embarrassed by the fact that she was running with feces in shorts, because she crossed the finish line with a new personal record.

"Training went very well - I knew I was in really good shape," the athlete shared.

Tamara was determined to set a new record after her first post-natal return to racing in 2018.

During the marathon at the 13-mile mark,

Tamara's body begged her to go to the bathroom

, but she

continued to run.

"I thought: 'I don't know if it's possible to poop while running, but I'll try.' 

I didn't want one feces to ruin everything

," the woman said.

To keep up the fast pace, Tamara defecated in just her shorts mid-race.

After that, she felt "much better" and ran another 13 miles at a brisk pace.

In the end, she "beat" her previous fastest time, running the marathon in three hours and seven minutes.

Tamara said that she was "disgusted" and she is not ashamed of this incident.

When the woman crossed the finish line, she 

even shouted to her family: "I pooped in my pants!"

The athlete went to put herself in order immediately after the end of the race.

We will remind you that in Nepal, a 47-year-old man stuffed a glass of water into his anus and spent several days like that.

He had to seek help from doctors due to constipation.
