3 heart attacks, 33 hospitalizations at Spanish half-marathon
Posted by Lou on November 26, 2022News media blamed the local weather, which was recorded as partly cloudy at 71.4 degrees Fahrenheit.
A meta-analysis conducted by York St. John University in 2016 reviewed sudden cardiac deaths in marathons in the 34 years between 1976 and 2010 and found that incidence rates ranged between 0.6 and 1.9 per 100,000.
The total number of runners in the Comrades Marathon was capped at 15,000, and around 20,000 runners reportedly participated in the Brooklyn Half Marathon. That would put the incidence death rate per 100,000 at 13.3 and 5 respectively.
