Earlier on in this list, we saw a moving picture of an athlete choosing to finish dead last in a race in order to let an injured runner finish ahead of her. Here, we see that same spirit of generosity and camaraderie taken to the next level. The runner helping out her disabled colleague in this picture cost herself $10,000 by doing so.
This picture was taken at the Zheng-Kai marathon, where Jacqueline Kiplimo of Kenya was on track to finish as the first placed woman, and net $10,000 in prize money - but as she was running, she noticed a disabled Chinese runner struggling to take on water. She ran with him to the 38K mark, helping him through each water station, and slowing herself down by doing so. Because of her kindness, she finished up as second placed woman, and received a lower prize. Jacqueline has given interviews since says she's never regretted her actions that day.
