Always a shock when a perfectly healthy athlete (at least by outward appearances) dies of a heart attack.
Some people live a life of abuse (not to name names but ... Keith Richards) and are as indestructible as coach roaches. Then others live a clean life with healthy habits and are dead by 30. My only advice is ... know your God because we never know when it's our time. |

""Since it quickly grew dark after True's body was discovered, ground crews and people on horseback returned today to excavate him. His body will be taken to Albuquerque for an autopsy, so it will likely be a few more days before the cause of death is known, according to McDonald. ""
It will be interesting to see what happened if the word they chose was correct. |

Going to have to go with "running isn't really that good for you" or, "there are much better exercises out there". I'd take swimming or bicycling any day over running. Too hard on the feet, ankles, knees, hips and spine.

Until recently my Battery was running two miles twice a week at a 7:00 pace.
Now we are running about 14 miles total at 8:00 and 9:00 paces. Much, much better. |

I still think that rowing is the best workout for overall fitness, with the lowest potential health risks.
Keep in mind, not only am I a slow runner, but I tore my ankle up on a slow run and it was six months before I could run properly. |

Occasional short distance sprinting and heavy lifting are good to go. Drop your reps and increase the weight. |
