        @BBCBreaking a 'catastrophic cardiac event' would be more accurate.

        @BBCBreaking Headline doesn't match the link though. Either way, still tragic. Gone too soon.

        @BBCBreaking Running is not natural for our species. Only for catching food, and that the distance we can see.

        @rturner003 Looking at the scientific stance. Running long distances for a predator isn't natural. Sprinting short distances is far safer.

        @BBCBreaking cardiac arrest after morning run, yet if you don't exercise you are likely to die of a heart attack. That's the human body. RIP
