Subject: RE: Good News Articles on the Fatalities at GCT and IM FL Excellent series. You should post those in the main Triathlon Talk forum. That's the most informative information I have seen or heard anywhere. The deaths still remain a mystery, but for me, the most likely explanation is heart arrythmia or long QT, which is essentially the same thing. There is no way these people just drown. While that has to be the official cause of death the Medical Examiner, or whoever puts down, it's probably wrong. Interesting information on the wetsuits theory and the swimming induced pulminary edema. One would have to assume that more investigation is occuring in those areas. In the end, I think the heart, for whatever reason, simply stops. Thanks for posting. |
