Athletes keep breaking records - and they may never stop

When horse racing fans rhapsodize about Secretariat's enormous heart, they're not speaking metaphorically - a postmortem exam in 1989 found that it weighed between 21 and 22 pounds, two-and-a-half times more than the average thoroughbred's heart.
