Following on from Muamba (who is okay) we had the death of Morisini (Serie B player) and that of CLaire Squires in the London marathon. This morning I read about a 15 year old girl who collapsed and died during a rounders match and a 7 year old lad that died haviong a kick about with his mates.

Are people going to stop exercising for fear of precipitating some hitherto undiscovered heart condition?

Are there more instances of sudden death or are they being reported more voraciously?

I suspect the latter*.

See you on Saturday BTW. 700ft of climbing in the first 1.2 miles. 😉

I've never died exercising so I reckon it's a hoax

Although, I did know someone who died of a heart attack whilst on the job, in a hotel room with his bit on the side
