Influencer who brought camera crew to New York marathon banned from race
Matthew Choi disqualified for violating code of conduct after running race with two people on e-bikes in tow
A social media influencer from Texas was disqualified from last weekend’s New York City Marathon and banned from future competitions after he ran the race with a camera crew on e-bikes in tow.
New York Road Runners (NYRR), which organizes the race, said in a statement Tuesday that Matthew Choi violated the group’s code of conduct and competition rules, not to mention those of World Athletics, running’s international governing body.
