LeeAdianez Rodriguez signed up for a 5-kilometer race in Rochester, New York. But she arrived at the wrong starting position and ran a course set up for a half marathon.
LeeAdianez realized about halfway through that she must have been in the wrong race, but she decided to finish the race, whatever it was. So instead of running 3.1 miles, she ran 13.1 miles. Her finishing time was 2 hours, 43 minutes, and 31 seconds.

Though in this case it must be unfortunate when she's run too far thinking the finish line is just around the corner...
