[quote=Anonymous]These are not your usual "staying fit" runners or the people you see running 5ks/10ks/half marathons or even the one-time bucket list marathon. These people were high-volume competitive repeat marathoners and ultramarathoners, if you look at the study. These people are on the extreme end of running, especially the ultramarathoners...they're pushing themselves past the "wall" regularly (which is literally your body shutting down because you've pushed it so hard) and experience throwing up and diarrhea as a result of their training/races. These are also the people in the running community who are most likely to be extremely underweight, which is associated with worse health outcomes than being a healthy weight. https://www.inovanewsroom.org/press-release/2025/08/groundbreaking-inova-study-finds-potential-link-between-long-distance-running-and-colon-cancer/[/quote]
