UPDATE: Runner dies at Brooklyn Half Marathon finish line, 16 hospitalized

As a marathon runner and unvaxed pharmacist

I hope he got his personal best in this race

Hate to see someone die if they ran a mediocre time

It is only 13 miles -- not really in the category where you'd expect too many deaths.

That said, there are always a few each year. I don't think there was a death at the Boston marathon (although the number that didn't make it to halfway was double that in previous years).

Bad technique and being overweight or otherwise heavy is bad on the knees. I'm in my mid 40s and running without issue as plenty of others are, much older than me.

This happens more when its hot

This happens in the military all the time. Havening heart attacks and dying trying to pass a PT test.

Trust the scientism.

:backtothefuture:

Yes it's perfectly normal.

Probably vaxxed idiots.

Yankees make fun of southerners when there is a snowstorm and say southerners can’t drive in the snow when in actuality it’s because Yankees have millions of stolen tax dollars invested in snow plows. But in the south we call 95 degrees at the end of May, “ the end of May”.

My daughter was a distance runner from 13 YO through college into adult life. Has ran numerous, in college, 1/2's a couple fulls and countless 5K / 7Ks. Have NEVER seen anyone die. Have seen people collapse, not more than 20 over those 12 years.

Getting experimental gene therapy jabs has consequences.

This could be vaxx related but he is right, heat strokes happen.

It was the one dead that caused the reporting of the other injuries.

There are injuries every event all over the world.

Ive heard a few people say that. Usually the unhealthy ones.

Actually YES. People have been dying for years every London Marathon.

You appear to have no fucking idea?

In older runners, yes.

Not 30 year old athletes, as a general rule.

That's typical, right?

Happens all the time?

Fuck you. Why don't you explain to this community what the fuck you are??

Oh, man didn't see at first.. but when I did I can't unsee it.. he will be making skidmarks in the turns.

Uh when?



Never heard of it before?

this

Just imagine how dead that person would be without the vax.

Probably would not be dead at all.

My resting pulse is 110-120.


You don't want to see me upset.

Rare events in large populations

Sudden deaths in marathon running have been the subject of much study in the cardiology and sports medicine fields because they are rare and somewhat unpredictable occurrences. Research estimates range from 0.5 to 2 deaths per 100,000 marathon runners in a given race, a far lower risk of death than in the majority of daily activities.

I read other articles but for some reason, the information is quite right, read in the other articles, stated that people do exercises to make sure they are up to the heat if they run in these marathons on hot days and how much water to drink. Blaming in this one giving another view said being young and dying because maybe their arteries are clogged, if their arteries are as clogged as they claim about another guy dying from a run at another one, "maybe" is you signal to disregard their article as fake. If they ran on a treadmill for miles at a time, they would also have a heart attack before they got off the treadmill.

If you see maybe, could be, should be, other words in this train of thought just quit, reading it, it is made up of some if not a lot from their minds, the hook is those words to keep them out of trouble.

Yes, that’s why so many people become runners

Myself included

People run marathons in much warmer climates, never heard of anything like this.

I would hit 5 miles a day in Afghanistan in the dead of summer covered in mud from sweat and dust with hundreds of others in 2011. Nobody died, nobody went to a hospital. Then had to walk a mile to get to a shower with blistering hot water out of a bladder sitting in the sun.

Over 50 here..still love to run.

Walking Is for old old folks.

Where did you hear tgis shit that walking is much more beneficial? Some old, fat Dr?

This-it’s definitely weather related.

baffling

I’m 61 and run 6-10 miles 7 days a week. No issues
