How do your genetics compare to the world’s elite marathoners?
Pathway OME (Formerly Pathway Genomics, http://www.pathway.com) has identified a unique set of genetic traits associated with endurance, anxiety and likelihood of hamstring/Achilles injuries in an elite set of marathon runners. To date, this is the largest database of elite marathon athletes to ever have their exomes sequenced. Proprietary SportIQ Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithms were developed and used to compare genetic traits in these 1,119 elite marathon runners to a normal population enabling us to develop a Marathon Runner profile to assist athletes in training to compete and achieve their athletic goals. Athletes whose genetic profiles differ significantly from the \"Marathon Runner\" profile will gain additional insights on the specific training necessary to prepare their muscles for the demanding conditions of long distance running.
