Joe Amabile Forced To Drop Out Of Marathon

Bachelor alum and fan favorite Joe Amabile was set to run the New York City Marathon this weekend but sadly had to withdraw from the race. He went to social media the day before the race to share a photo of a thermometer which indicated he had a fever.

He had a 100.4 temperature even after Tylenol and a hot shower. Joe was hoping to sleep it off and be ready to go by race time. His wife, Serena Pitt shared an Instagram Story as well saying that Joe was really ill. Her video was shared the night before the race. She noted, “IDK how this man plans to run a marathon tomorrow. He’s been sick and asleep since his run this morning.”

Joe woke up early and shared a video on Instagram to give an update and also reveal he won’t be running in the marathon. “After the shakeout run yesterday, my back was aching and I caught a fever. I was really hoping it was going to break through the night.”

He went on to say,

“Went to sleep yesterday, had a little bit of a fever. Woke up and I’m still at 100.4 [degrees]. Don’t think I’m gonna be able to run this morning. It’s just probably not worth it. Sucks [because I’ve] been training for this, got shin splints, was waiting two weeks.”

Others Wished Him Well

There were members of Bachelor Nation who went and wished him well including Kaitlyn Bristowe and Matt James. Some other alums were also running in the marathon including Matt James, Zac Clark, Tayshia Adams and Peter Weber.

Many find it interesting that Zac and Tayshia were both running considering the drama that appears to be happening between Zac’s rumored girlfriend Kaitlyn Bristowe. In a previous interview, Kaitlyn said an undisclosed member of Bachelor Nation said bad things to her after she was being courteous to let them know she was going on a date with their ex.

No names were given but most are certain it’s Zac and Tayshia.

As for Joe, there have been no further updates and most likely he is now on the road to recovery. What do you think about Joe having to drop out of the race at the last minute?

Stay tuned for more updates.
