I'll say Brad Hudson is a bad example. He had both asthma and a heart
condition that kept his heart motoring at idle over 100bpm. Really puts a
damper on an athletic career. He's still the HS course record holder at the
venerable Van Cortland Park, and one of the top age-group marathon runners
ever.
