We dive into the intriguing world of endurance exercise and cardiovascular health with our guest, John C. Hagan III, an ophthalmologist and veteran endurance athlete. John shares his personal journey with long-distance running and the unexpected health challenges he encountered. We explore the latest research on the potential risks of excessive endurance exercise, the evolving medical perspectives on physical activity, and how Type-A personalities, common in the medical field, can find a healthier balance. Learn about the coronary artery calcium score (CACS), the concept of the “Goldilocks Zone” for exercise, and practical advice for maintaining cardiovascular health.

John C. Hagan III is an ophthalmologist.

He discusses the KevinMD article, “From marathons to moderation: Rethinking endurance exercise.”

Our presenting sponsor is Nuance, a Microsoft company.
