Answer: Hypocalcemia

Martin has a condition called hypocalcemia, which means that the calcium level in blood is too low. This can be tested through a blood panel that also test for blood sugar and protein aside from calcium. Moreover, low level of calcium indicates secondary hyperparathyroidism where the parathyroid glands produce too much parathyroid hormone, which causes calcium levels to rise that result to bone thinning and fractures.<span>                  </span>

If I want to run a mile in 8:23 (minutes:seconds) what would be the best plan? I have to run 19 laps to make a full mile. Please
jarptica [38.1K]
To do this, you would have to be running at least 26 seconds per lap. I have been running cross country running for the past two years, and my tip for making this time is just to consistently run a set pace for the laps. If you stop to walk, you will lose your momentum and it will be hard to start running again. The first few laps are going to be the hardest, but most of the pain comes from a psychological level. Once you get past the first few laps, you won’t be as worried about walking, and you could run the rest. It won’t be easy, but I highly suggest for you to run the whole time. This is the most efficient way to run the mile in 8 minutes and 23 seconds.
