Question 6: Do you think the organizers of the Baiyinshan Marathon in Gansu are responsible?

The final result of the marathon held in Baiyin, Gansu attracted the attention of the whole country. I think the organizers of the event have a great responsibility. Why didn't they warn the weather? Why didn't you remind the marathon runners to pay attention to the weather changes and take precautions? Why didn't you provide adequate rescue and post-game security? At the opening ceremony, there was a strong wind. Why do you insist on holding competitions? I think that although the direct cause of this mountain marathon event is the influence of the weather, the organizers should also bear certain responsibilities.

1. Why is there no weather warning? Now the weather forecasting technology is so developed, not to mention the weather of the day, I'm afraid even the weather of the last three days can be predicted accurately. As a high-intensity sports event, mountain marathon has not taken active measures to pay attention to the weather changes. When encountering such bad weather, it can't take active and effective measures, so the organizers have to bear great responsibilities.

Second, why don't athletes pay attention to safety? Secondly, as an organizer, when any dangerous situation is found, we should remind and recall the athletes at the first time and stop the competition. However, it seems that the organizers did not anticipate the complex environment in the mountainous area at all, nor did they remind the athletes to be prepared, so many athletes went into battle lightly, resulting in insufficient warm-keeping measures when cold weather came, which eventually led to tragedy.

Third, why didn't you stop the game in time? In fact, there was already a strong wind when the marathon started. Extreme weather is not uncommon in places like mountainous areas, so the so-called organizers should be able to predict this kind of weather change, but they didn't stop the competition. After the weather changes, rescue measures cannot be taken in time, and there is not enough reserve work for the event. These are the responsibilities that the organizers of this marathon should bear.
