French runner Alessia Zarbo has given team members, spectators and medical staff a moment of huge panic after she suddenly collapsed during the 10,000m race in the Stade de France. Medical crews quickly ran to athlete when they noticed she was motionless on the track. While the weather was warm and sticky, it is unclear what exactly sparked the 22-year-old’s worrying fall. The incident happened after about the 7000m mark. And Zarbo appeared to lose consciousness when she was on the ground.
“Really hope Alessia Zarbo is alright!” one person said on X . “Her collapse in the women’s 10,000m looked really nasty.” The race also featured Australia’s Lauren Ryan who surprised many at the halfway mark when she took the lead. But Ryan’s time out in front was short-lived and she finished thirteenth . “Everything was in place to have a great race and I feel like that’s what we did,” Ryan said after the event.
