Diving is a deceptive sport. Ordinarily it doesn't require the diver to be in shape. But occasionally it's very important to be in shape. The DAN fatality reports are populated with divers who were obsese or had poor cardio-vascular health.

In the beginning I had a number of dives after which I felt terribly out of shape. I know that had things gone wrong it would have been a real struggle. I now run 3 times a week and haven't had trouble now that I am in better shape.
