Conclusions<br />

• Phidippides Cardiomyopathy (PC), also referred to as<br />

Runner’s Runner s Cardiomyopathy, is a novel term and newly<br />

recognized disorder that has been affecting runners and<br />

endurance athletes for thousands of years.<br />

• PC may never cause symptoms or may present in some<br />

as sudden cardiac death resulting from ventricular<br />

arrhythmias.<br />

• Cardiac MRI with LGE is the only imaging modality that<br />

can accurately diagnose PC and is the test of choice to<br />

risk stratify endurance athletes.<br />

• Those who are most likely to suffer from PC may have a<br />

genetic predisposition; though, more research is needed<br />

to further delineate this syndrome.
