    No sports world record is broken by doing what’s healthy.
    But judging by the trail ultra-marathoners I know personally, they’d be a lot less healthy if they didn’t have that hobby.
    Lots of (undiagnosed) ADHD in the sport, too.

      I suppose if you’ve got a self-destructive streak a mile wild, better to at least burn out doing something impressive.
