I'm not sure why you're offended. I read this article that said this isn't a problem unless you have heart problems. You can appear fit and still have a heart problem, "the biggest danger to younger, otherwise healthy runners is undiagnosed hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, a genetic condition that enlarges part of your heart muscle." I'm in a blue state lmao but thanks for implying I'm uneducated. America's education has also been shitty, I would be surprised if they cover this at all in other states.
