anything wind aided?
The race is a mile. The guy who wins the race has the 1500 meter world record prior to the race. He sets the world record in the mile, but the second place guy broke the 1500m record in route to his second place finish. Second place guy was out kicked in last 100 meters of the mile.

Decathlon/Heptathlon. This has actually happened before. Some dude held a record for 0.2 seconds or something like that.
