Our Chief Scientific Officer joined Dr Jeff Sankoff on the Tridoc podcast to discuss the impact of pollution on athletes.

Dr Sankoff's introduction: With a mix of traffic data, meteorological conditions, and some AI wizardry, this app [AirTrack] offers insights that could make even the most oblivious runner stop and think twice about their chosen route. Will shares how understanding the local air quality can help athletes reduce exposure to pollutants, and let's be real, nobody wants to inhale a cloud of diesel fumes while trying to crush that PR. Spoiler alert: it turns out that even a couple of blocks away from a bustling street can drop your pollution exposure by 30%. So why not take the scenic route? The episode is packed with actionable advice, a dose of sarcasm, and the hard truth about how air quality impacts our health and performance. Who knew a little data could go such a long way in keeping us breathing easy while we sweat it out on those trails?
