Joasia Zakrzewski admitted that she had jumped into her friend's vehicle during the 2023 GB Ultras Manchester to Liverpool race on 7 April, but claimed she only did so after telling marshalls that she was injured and was no longer competing.
However, that explanation was rejected by a UKA disciplinary panel who have now banned Zakrzewski from competing in any UKA licensed races, representing Great Britain, or coaching or managing for a year, after finding her guilty of breaching the UKA code of conduct for senior athletes.
Evidence showed that Zakrzewski had traveled around 2.5 miles in a car, contradicting her claim of being injured and no longer competing.
