did you ever have to really go and you were between aid stations its not like your on a track with facilities near or on a routine route, when volume wants to move out you don't have many options, I'm sure they tried.....butt!
Hard to tell with that camera angle, so I still wonder if the runner was Seth DeMoor. He sure posted a crappy video about the race, so he had a lot of crap to work with. Sorry, I couldn't resist the pathetic joke.

“With their shorts around their ankles, the runner and spectator appear to get into an awkward standoff. The two stare each other down for about 20 seconds while the runner continues to squat.”
There are serious legal issues with this. If he exposed himself, as he did while he was defecating, he could have to register as a sex offender. It is not uncommon for the DA to charge someone with indecent exposure in a case like this, and he would have to register as a sex offender. Boston Marathon or not! As we get older we need to think that stuff we did as young teenagers won't fly as adults. I am really surprised no one has said this. This guy's picture is all over the media. His lawyer may fight it, as for as the sex offender change, and that wasn't the intention, but people have had been convicted in similar situations. At the very least he could be looking at a some less serious charges, but he definitely is looking at some time.
It’s possible though very unlikely he would end up on any registry. Each state has its own list of offenses and conditions under which you can be put on their list, and each state chooses the level of public access they grant — in some states everyone on the registry can be found in an online search, in others only high level offenders can be whereas the low level list is only available to law enforcement. In some states you could be put on the list for going potty in public, but in nearly all cases that’s just used as a prosecutorial tactic. It’s easier to get you to plead guilty to some lesser offense (I once heard of a public peeing case that pled out as “improper disposal of waste”!) if they can threaten you with a charge that could come with sex offender registry if you don’t take their magnanimous plea deal.
Are you saying it's perfectly legal to drop you shorts and defecate on someone's property, and everyone should laugh it off as part of the race? I hope you are not serious. He could face a number of charges, and some are serious. Now a good lawyer could fight his intentions, but it's not a given.
Yes! Not a big deal. Dogs do it all the time. Poop can be cleaned up and is biodegradable...I think.
"Poop can be cleaned up..."
So did the runner clean it up or no?
No. He or she left it for someone else.
You would absolutely not be happy if I left a puddle of human sh*t for you to clean up wherever you live.
Could have at least done it in the trees and not on the lawn.
Also, what are the chances the course was there before the homeowner bought the property? Buyer beware if your home purchase is along the Boston Marathon course.
"You shouldn't have bought that house if you didn't want people sh*tting on your lawn."
This makes sense in your head? You people are overgrown children.
I don't know what getto you live in, but if someone exposes themselves and craps on my lawn in front of my son, that's a BIG problem. WTF is wrong with the losers on this site?
I'm going to come take a medium-sized deuce on your lawn. You won't know when, it'll just happen. Let that simmer. Now you'll never know if it was that annoying dog...or ME. Rest easy, my friend.
Why can’t Marathon Investigations launch an inquiry of this? We (1) know the exact time the deuce was dropped, (2) should be able to figure out where the house is located relative to timing mats, (3) can see the coloring of the person’s singlet, (4) have Marathon Foto images of people on course.
On the other hand, I would offer the pooper amnesty if she/he would return to scene of crime with dog poop bag and removed the offending pile
Nope, it's just against the law BIG time. People crapping on peoples property. F that s**t. You all saying it's cool either don't have a home and rent, or live in the Getto.
BIG TIME! Settle down, Karen. Its not even jaywalking.
Six months ago a cop pulled over when he saw me peeing on the side of the road.
He said, "You know, you're not supposed to be doing that here? "
I told him to "Mark this day on your calendar. In 30 years this his going to be you."

I'm not condoning rogue defecation, but people urinate and defecate where they shouldn't every year at every big road race. Buyer beware.
As for the runner, why not just ring the doorbell and ask to use the bathroom?
“With their shorts around their ankles, the runner and spectator appear to get into an awkward standoff. The two stare each other down for about 20 seconds while the runner continues to squat.”
Is it not clear if the runner is a he or she?? The use of "their" in this sentence had me wondering why both the runner and the spectator had their pants off. And I'm a visual thinker that just can't unsee that.
It isn't the use of "their" which is confusing; the sentence is awkwardly/incorrectly constructed. If it said, "With their shorts around their ankles, the runner appears to get into an awkward standoff with the spectator" then it's pretty clear.
Never on someone's lawn. Never. Find a porta-potty. If all else fails, go deep into the woods. Never on private property.
Sometimes the world isn't so kind. Residential neighborhood, no porta-potty for a mile, and there's nothing you can do to stop it coming out in the next minute or two. Your options are: soil yourself and deal with it when you get home; go directly in the street; find a tree or bush in someone's yard. You could try knocking on doors and asking to use someone's bathroom, but good luck with that. There's no winning with any of these options, but which do you choose?

Seems some of us aren't the triggered type.
Tell your son not to look. Then call the BAA and complain. No need to ID anyone, just ask them to install more outhouses.
Yes, you need fewer people crapping in your yard. No, you don't need revenge.
You are so stupid or your being funny. A typical morning in your F up world," good morning my wife and son, it's absolutely beautiful today, and look there is a man taking down his pants and crapping in our yard" " how nice". This site is fully of funny people and people making fun of people.

Who said it's nice? It's just not the end of the world. But you are a triggered little snowflake who would probably shoot up half the marathon if something like this happened to you.
