Metabolic Factors Limiting Performance in Marathon Runners
Each year in the past three decades has seen hundreds of thousands of runners register to run a major marathon. Of those who attempt to race over the marathon distance of 26 miles and 385 yards (42.195 kilometers), more than two-fifths experience severe and performance-limiting depletion of physiologic carbohydrate reserves (a phenomenon known as 'hitting the wall'), and thousands drop out befo...
متن کاملCreatine kinase elevations in marathon runners: relationship to training and competition.
Elevation of creatine kinase (CK) in serum after exertion is a reliable marker of skeletal muscle injury. Limited data exist on CK levels in conditioned athletes after endurance training and competition. Serum CK was measured by a kinetic UV method (normal < 100 U/L) in 15 long distance runners before (pre-race), 24 hours after (post-race) and four weeks following (post-race) the 1979 Boston Ma...
متن کاملRunning: the risk of coronary events : Prevalence and prognostic relevance of coronary atherosclerosis in marathon runners.
AIMS To quantify the prevalence of coronary artery calcification (CAC) in relation to cardiovascular risk factors in marathon runners, and to study its role for myocardial damage and coronary events. METHODS AND RESULTS In 108 apparently healthy male marathon runners aged >or=50 years, with >or=5 marathon competitions during the previous three years, the running history, Framingham risk score...
متن کاملPost-race kinetics of cardiac troponin T and I and N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide in marathon runners.
(Ratio) (1 ϩ Ratio) ϫ 100 As shown in Fig. 1A, we obtained a highly linear calibration curve for the glycated hexapeptides over a wide concentration range (0 –20%). We also obtained a highly linear calibration curve for HbA 1c over a wide concentration range (Fig. 1B). As shown in Table 1, the peak intensity values for the two samples used to assess assay variability were highly reproducible (C...
متن کاملGastrointestinal disturbances in marathon runners
To determine the prevalence of various gastrointestinal disturbances related to long-distance rnning and its effect on weight, diet and everyday digestive problems, we gave a questionnaire to 279 leisure-time marathon runners, comprising 10% of the participants in a local marathon race. Their answers disclosed a prevalence of dietary changes, weight reduction and altered bowel habits (mainly lo...
