Người đàn ông Trung Quốc bị cấm tham gia giải vì vừa chạy marathon vừa hút thuốc

năm 2022, Chen Bangxian trở nên nổi tiếng vì hút thuốc liên tục trong quá trình hoàn thành cuộc đua marathon. Việc ông lặp lại hành vi này tại cuộc thi Marathon quốc tế Hạ Môn vào đầu tháng 1 hiện đã dẫn đến hình thức kỷ luật.

In November 2022, Chen Bangxian, a 50-year-old Chinese amateur marathon runner (vận động viên marathon nghiệp dư), shot to internet fame for completing a marathon while chain-smoking cigarettes (hút thuốc lá liên tục). Known as “Smoking Big Brother,” he finished the 42-kilometer Jiande City marathon in the eastern Zhejiang province with an impressive (ấn tượng) time of three hours and 28 minutes.

But in a stark reversal of fortunes (vận may đảo ngược hoàn toàn) this year, his distinctive (nổi bật) habit led to swift penalties (hình phạt) at the recently concluded Xiamen International Marathon: a two-year ban from the event, cancellation (hủy bỏ) of his race results, and the possibility of further disciplinary action (xử lý kỷ luật) from the Chinese Athletic Association (Hiệp hội thể thao Trung Quốc) (CAA).

In 2022, though Chen gained national attention, his smoking habit during races sparked both widespread disapproval (phản đối) among fellow runners and public outcry (phẫn nộ) on social media, with some advocating (ủng hộ) for his ban from future events. At that time, China lacked explicit (rõ ràng) regulations prohibiting smoking in marathons.

But in regulations released in October 2023, the Xiamen event specifically classified (phân loại) smoking as “uncivilized behavior,” (hành vi thiếu văn minh) along with other actions such as public urination (đi tiểu nơi công cộng), littering, damaging flower beds and green areas, and endangering the safety of other runners.

Yet, in numerous other cities, efforts to ban smoking during marathons are still in the early stages. Host cities like Hangzhou and Guangzhou have regulations that address forms of “uncivilized behavior,” but they stop short of specifically banning smoking. Some cities are expected to announce smoking bans in the run-up to the events.
