Hi all,
Here is a news story about the results of an interesting study: http://www.ivillage.com/too-much-running-can-lead-heart-failure/4-h-356653?obref=obnetwork
It is good that they added some balance to the story.

..you know,
when
Jim Fixx died,,,,,,,,I think every LardA$$ in the US rejoyced....
my favorite article
was the one saying
Running would make men's scrotums drop
I asked
the LardA$$ telling me this
if he didn't think I would probably NOTICE that happening.

LOL.........I think there is truth in that. I have some non running friends that brings up runners having heart attacks and dieing. But usually they had some underlying condition that went undiagnosed
Running has given me the courage to start, the determination to keep trying, and the childlike spirit to have fun along the way - Run often and run long, but never outrun your Joy of running!
then you're gonna love this..
Let me start with the important question: Does anybody know where the study that led to this report was published? Or its title or authors or anything that would let me look it up? Just because something is in print it is not "true." With those caveats let me take some guesses. The way this study was run they took a bunch of people ran a pile of tests and this one in particular produced statistically significant results. Was there evidence that this type of scaring led to different life expectancies? No. Cancer rates? No. Anything bad? No. Just an observed difference. Good, bad, or indifferent who knows. Having not seen the study I cannot be 100% sure but given how vague the reporter was my guess is that the picture I have outlined is the most likely.
Live like you are dying not like you are afraid to die.

No doubt there are people trying to link shaving legs as young adults to hot flashes in middle aged women. Or wearing capes to having talking dogs.

Twocat- one would think from your post that you have some experience with research.
