and tighten criteria if necessary to avoid excess length. – The article is consistent with the  guideline and with dozens of parallel sports in :Category:Lists of people by cause of death and Lists of sportspeople who died during their careers. It's OK if people want to tighten the first sentence to a list of ''notable'' (blue-linked) individuals who died as a result of running a marathon. But you'll see that not a single non-notable has been added since the day the article was created 14 months ago, so the fears expressed in some of the comments above are wildly overblown
