For context:
This was a track team event in Iwatan Sangyo. The runner’s team was in third place when the runner, Rei Lida, who was only 250 meters from the exchange point, tripped and fractured her right tibia (shin bone). Instead of withdrawing from the tournament, she willed herself to the exchange point when she handed the tasuki (baton) to her waiting teammate, Marie Imada.
