Deaths at marathons are relatively rare. The last death at the Detroit event was in 1994 when a 42-year-old man died of a heart attack after running more than 32 kilometres.

Many years ago, there was a story I saw where a woman ran a whole marathon with a broken leg. If someone can do that with the help of the body's natural pain relievers, this is not surprising. Sad, but not surprising.
There are not too many things in life worth working my butt off for, but my health is one of them
