Subject: RE: Heart related problems due to endurance sports? The article doesn't seem to conclude anything but "we don't have enough empirical evidence". They're calling for more research, which is great, but so far there's only "might", "probably" etc.
That being said, there's a reason we call it extreme sport. Everyone doing an ironman knows that if you want to be healthy you do 5k 4 times a week. If you want to challenge yourself mentally and physically you do an ironman, or ultra marathon or whatever.
