Hi my name is Kevin Pham and I am a second year masters athletic training student. I came across this article and it immediately made me think about a topic talked about in one of our classes. There is a cycling event set to happen in China soon and some athletes are deciding to forgo there invitation due to the fact that the air pollution there is so high. They said they by participating in this event it could make their health worse rather than any benefits. This situation has also recently arose in North America with the wildfires causing air pollution throughout the east. We as clinicians need to be aware about this and take it into consideration when dealing with outdoor sports. As a future athletic trainer I would advise my team to practice indoors or elsewhere just because there’s no need to take a risk towards your health.
