Man Gets Participation Medal After Drunkenly Joining 8K Race In Flip-Flops

Thursday, August 7, 2025 at 8:00 PM

A Brazilian man named Isaque noticed registered runners preparing for an eight-kilometer race after a night of drinking. Thinking it might help alleviate his hangover, he decided to spontaneously join the festivities, despite the fact that he was wearing flip-flops and never formally registered for the event. Footage showed Isaque catching stride and completing the race, even earning a participation medal. In an Instagram update, Isaque is quoted as describing the incident as "a wake-up call" from a higher power, for which he is grateful.  While Isaque's story may be inspiring, experts advise against attempting to run a race in flip-flops, as it poses significant safety risks.
