Friend of mine asked me to post the following on the tech diver list.  

> 
> I've been a runner for many years and during the early part of this year 
> I essentialy stopped (to minimise leg cramps) so I could cave dive in the 
> Florida systems. I was breathing air (double 95's)and decoing on 80% O2 with 
> about 4 dives per week during a period of 3 months. I am now on a consulting 
> job in Germany and have gone back to training for marathons and have found 
> that as I approach race speeds I am getting a burning sensation (pain) in my 
> upper chest which is new for me. It seems to be in the lungs and not in the 
> chest cavity. If I back off a fair amount from the anaerobic threshold it 
> seems to go away. Have any of you who are runners or athletes in general
> had this same problem and does it go away?
