With the state track championships coming up this weekend, this crazy story out of Utah strikes a particular chord. Ryan McGeeney, an intrepid photographer with the Daily Examiner out of Ogden, Utah, was covering that state’s track championships and was speared in the leg with an incoming javelin. McGeeney wandered into an out of bounds area while shooting discus throwers. The javelin didn’t hit anything below McGeeney’s knee, but did take 13 stitches to close the wound.The wild part is that McGeeney’s first instinct was to capture the spear hanging out of his leg. He said that his editor’s first question when he got back from the hospital would have been, ‘Why didn’t you get a photo?’ The wildest part was that the kid that threw the javelin, Anthony Miles of Provo High, went on to win the state title later that day.
