One of the best 400m runners of his generation, Roger Black knew he had a bicuspid aortic valve from age 11 (same age I was diagnosed).
Initially he was pulled out of competitive sport (as I was)
Just shows you before the valve becomes severely stenotic it's no hindrance to elite level athletic performance
