His history of participation in marathons gave him confidence; however, unforeseen medical complications arose during the event. The timely access to rare specialist treatment in the Czech capital proved vital for his survival, as doctors indicated that without such care, McCann may not have survived the incident. This highlights the significance of specialized healthcare services in emergencies during athletic events.
