Ethiopian Runner Loses Lead After Following Police Motorcycle Off Course

Senbere Teferi made a wrong turn just before the finish line of the Peachtree Road Race and ended up finishing third.
Teferi appeared to follow a police motorcycle that had turned off the course.
Teferi's mistake cost her the win and $10,000 in prize money, receiving $3,000 for third place instead.
The race organizers acknowledged the confusion that led Teferi off course and expressed disappointment in the imperfect finish.
Two other runners finished before Teferi after she came back onto the course.
