sad
didn't mention if she had a heart condition or not?
healthy people just don't die after a half marathon

That's why I don't run long distances

Very sad, but I can't stand articles that don't attempt to explain what happened. Congenital birth defect, history of heart disease, etc. They just leave it open ended.

Just awful. That poor family. How does that happen?

Yeah, there is obviously something else as she had run a full marathon the month before. She was obviously fit enough to do it. There had to be a condition that was triggered by the race. It's scary.

im sure they are waiting on autopsy

Sad. So many young people who are supposedly "fit" encounter this. Call me crazy but I think all this extreme running is not the healthiest of activities.

It isn't. Humans weren't made to run that far.
We're really ineffecient as a species when it comes to running.

I wouldn't call a half marathon "extreme"
if she had just run a 100 mile ultra, yeah thats one thing, but a half?
millions upon millions run halfs every weekend
she must have had some type of unknown heart defect

Is this a troll?

Name one species more efficient at long distance running. Name one.
