Running Research Survey

Got in an email from Patrick Wilson, Assistant Professor of Human Sciences at Old Dominion University:
 I am a faculty member at Old Dominion University in Norfolk, VA. I was wondering if you might be willing to share a hyperlink for a research survey with your running group’s members. The study is looking at the links between sleep, bodily sensations, and gut function in endurance runners. The study is be done through an electronic survey that should take about 5-7 minutes to complete. To be eligible, participants should be 18+ years old and running at least 15 miles/week. Responses are kept anonymous. The survey link is below:

Thanks for your consideration.
