After releasing into her pants, Tamara said she "had to focus", explaining: "It just came out and I felt a lot better." 

She thinks no one noticed at the time, saying that she "didn't give a s**t" if they did.

"Marathoners don't judge," she added. 

Nearing the finish line, she yelled to friends "I pooped my pants!" before dashing to a nearby Porta Potty to clean herself up.
