[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Family friend's 30yo dd who runs marathons was diagnosed with an aggressive breast cancer over the summer. Thankfully her prognosis is good - even though it IS aggressive they caught it early enough and the doctors are confident she can beat it. She runs marathons and is incredibly health-literate; she even said she's used to tracking biometrics with a wearable so she feels comfortable having those conversations with the doctors. And now Tatiana Schlossberg, who is 35 and mentioned swimming a mile the day before giving birth. I mean, swimming a mile on a regular day is proof enough someone is health-conscious and doing it nine months pregnant is just bad ass. Why are these young women getting so sick? [/quote] Running marathons doesn't prevent cancer. [/quote] I think there’s actually some new evidence running marathons and ultramarathons is associated with higher risk of some cancers due to the stress that puts on your body. [/quote] A lot of ultramarathoners are recovered addicts. I wouldn’t assume that research is anywhere near conclusive. [/quote] I think the suggestion was that Hitting the wall and also the stomach distress from running very long distances isn’t good for your body—it’s a shock and your body isn’t meant to do that repeatedly. Also marathoners tend to be underweight as opposed to healthy weight and underweight people have generally worse health outcomes. [/quote]
