Result 28.09.2023
There are no medical indications. You are normal weight! You are over age 35, have answered all of the
questions with NO and have had a sports physical within the last 2 years.

Should your doctor’s examination not indicate any issues, with great probability you currently do not have an
increased health risk, and you have the appropriate health and fitness level to:

Participate in running events

Execute a training programme

If your health status declines, you should consult your doctor to see if you can participate in sports. Should you
have a cold or fever, you should take a break from training.

Please repeat the questionnaire once a year or when you have taken a break from sports for longer than 6
months. In addition, for your own safety we encourage you to have physicals on a regular basis (at least every 2
years) to verify that you are fit enough to participate in sports. Information on what should be covered at such an
exam and the guidelines from the German Society for Sports Medicine and Prevention are available on our
website.
