How to assess the risk of "cardiac event" for a healthy runner?
It appears to be dreadfully not uncommon that seemingly healthy people suddenly die of "cardiac events" when doing physical exercises. Here is just another sad example: a healthy and regularly running man dies at the finish of his 5km run. Just several weeks before his health was assessed by a doctor who did not find any issues.

What kind of modern medical examinations can be taken to assess/predict the risk of such bad luck for a 39-year old guy living a reasonably healthy lifestyle?
