Age-related decline in endurance running performance - An example of a multiple World records holder A French group has analyzed the performance of the Canadian Ed Whitlock. This runner holds some old age clords in the marathon.

Marathon Pace Control in Masters Athletes An Irish group has examined the pacing of age class runners at the New York City Marathon 2015. They have made performance groups based on the marathon world record. It showed that the running speed during the marathon by age, gender and performance levels are influenced.
Under string, the fast age group runners are better in pacing than the slow runner, and that regardless of age and gender. The work can be found under https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28714744/

Fifty Men, 3510 Marathons, Cardiac Risk Factors, and Coronary Artery Calcium Scores An American group has examined vascular seals in the coronious vessels of male marathon runners as it often occurs that such athlete have vascular conciliations although they are physically very active. Only runners were included in the study, which has run at least one marathon every year for 25 years. 51 men were included with an average age of around 60 years ago the total 3'510 marathons have run.It showed that the runners with more calcifications were older, later started in life with the run, older than they ran the first marathon and the runners with more calcifications were sooner and rather showed an increased cholesterol. The bottom line is the vascular conciliation rather on cardiovascular risk factors and not to many marathons or a lot of running training.
Read moreEffect of age and performance on pacing of marathon runners In the marathon, the pacing has previously been studied especially for peak runners, little is known for age group runners. We have all the finishers of the, New York City Marathon ‘between 2006 and 2016 analyzed.We have formed groups after final times, at intervals of 30 min, ie under 3 hours, 3:00 to 3:30 h: min, etc. We found that the section 5-10 km was the fastest and the section 35-40km was slowest. It also showed a difference between the sexes in which men at 5 km showed a speed of speed while women at 25 km and 40 km raised the pace. Obviously, women were more likely to be able for a final spurt than the men.We also found 5 km, 10 km, 15 km, 20 km, 25 km, 30 km, 35 km, and 40 km a difference between the age groups by running runners in the higher age groups very constant (Even Pacing) What is especially inshowed the slower groups.
Read moreDescription of Three Female 24-h Ultra-Endurance Race Winners in Various Weather Conditions and Disciplines It is well known that the stress-associated hyponatremia is higher in female endurance athletes, these women usually be very slow on the road.
We now have 3 cases of women with stress-associated hyponatemia with all women gained a 24-hour race ahead of the entire male and female competition. We have put together these three extraordinary women in a case report, see https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28847143/

Swimming Three Ice Miles within Fifteen Hours Ice swimming is a relative young discipline who is more and more established with own championships.So far, individual case reports have been published in which a float was examined for a longer stay in ice-cold water. We now had the opportunity to pursue a swimmer of the planned to swim several ice mugs in succession.We were able to measure the course of the body core temperature as well as certain blood parameters before and after swimming. Amazing that the swimmer was the highest body core temperature a few minutes after immersion to ice-cold water.With an ice mile to it during swimming to a hypothermia.
Read moreThe effect of a 100-km ultra-marathon under freezing conditions on selected immunological and haematological parameters The 100 km run is one of the most popular routes in the ultramarathon.Several studies have already examined the effect of this burden on the runners. As a rule, 100 km runs are discharged with moderate temperatures.In a recent study, we examined the influence of temperature at a 100 km run the influence of the temperature on selected parameters of the immune system. For 15 runners who completed a 100km run at around 0 °, there were too pronounced changes in immune cells and markers of the immune system.
Read moreDiagnosis of swimming induced pulmonary edema – a review The disease of pulmonary edema while swimming (including SIPE for swimming-induced pulmonary EDEMA) has been known for some time and already described in Switzerland at athletes at the Gigathlon in case reports.We have now collected all individual cases described in the literature and examined the diagnosis of the SIPE more precisely. In all cases, significant breathing problems occasionally showed up with bloody ejection.In 73% of cases, hypoxemia was present.In 89% of cases, a lung X-ray image was made, there was a pulmonary edema in about a third of cases. In 81% of cases, there were complete recovery within 48 hours, which is typical of the SIPE.
Read moreDo fast older runners pace differently from fast younger runners in the ‘New York city marathon’? The pacing in the marathon has been studied especially for the top runners, but not a fast older and younger runners similar to pacen. We have now analyzed over 300,000 runners between 2006 and 2016 the ‘New York City Marathon’. If you are looking for the runners in groups after conclusion times, the runners with the slowest final times after 5km, 10km, 15km, and 20km have the largest waste in the running speed.
