In this research, the researchers followed participants for 12 years analyzing their health records for deaths from cancer, heart disease, or any other cause to determine the effects that physical or leisure activities had on mortality. They analyzed data from 272,550 respondents between the ages of 59 and 82.

  • Golf (14% of participants).
  • Running (7% of participants).
