Excluding the subjects lacking of one or more items of data under study, and one subject with more than 250 U/ml of serum CA19-9 was was on suspicion of carrying some diseases or disorders, 972 subjects (496 adults and 476 children) were applied to the present study.
The shortest race was just under 2 miles (one subject) and the longest 50 miles (one subject) but 95% of the races were between 6.2 and 26.2 miles.

Since the autism group (but not the control group) included one subject under the age of 18 years, we reran the group comparison statistics without this 15-year old subject.
Assuming a binomial distribution for the number of deaths from all causes, the sample size (for both groups combined) for an all death endpoint is Nall = 2 (1.96 Sqrt [2 vallH0 ] +.84 Sqrt [vallH0 + vallHA])/ d- e), where vallH0 = (p + k)(1- p- k) and vallHA= (p+ k- d+ e) (1- p- k+ d- e) are the variances for one subject under the null and alternative hypotheses respectively.
Assuming a Poisson distribution for the number of cancer deaths, the sample size (for both groups combined) for a cancer death endpoint is Ncancer= 2 (1.96 Sqrt [2 vcancerH0] +.84 Sqrt [vcancerH0 + vcancerHA ])/ d, where vcancerH0 = p and vcancerHA= p-d are the variances for one subject under the null and alternative hypotheses respectively.
