Born high, born fast: Does highland birth confer a pulmonary advantage for sea level endurance?
Experimental Physiology, Volume 110, Issue 11, Page 1625-1638, November 1, 2025.Abstract Less than 7% of the world's population live at an altitude above 1500 m. Yet, as many as 67% of medalists in the 2020 men's and women's Olympic marathon, and 100% of medalists in the 2020 men's and women's Olympic 5000 m track race may have been born or raised above this otherwise rare threshold.
