- Summary:
- The Endurance Athlete provides an overview of the incidence of injuries and catastrophic events affecting endurance sport athletes, particularly participants in triathlons and marathons. The video discusses the fact that such injuries and events are becoming an ever-greater problem, given the substantial increase over the past three decades in the number of individuals who engage in these physically demanding endurance sports. The video emphasizes that addressing the situation requires finding an appropriate balance for each endurance athlete, since one size (approach) does not fit all.
