Preparation for the Race Across America

Training Intensity Distribution and Changes in Performance and Physiology of a 2nd Place Finisher Team of the Race across America Over a 6 Month Preparation Period A German group has documented the preparation of a four-headed team for the Race Across America. According to three months and after six months of training starts on the Raam various laboratory tests were carried out.The very detailed documentation shows that physiological variables significantly changed while the variables of the force performance did not learn any changes.

Age class athletes are getting better and better

Master Athletes Are Extending the Limits of Human Endurance In recent years,severalstudies have shownthatage groupathletes -definedas an athleteover 40 years-in the range ofenduranceandextremeendurance exercise-defined asenduranceload of6 hoursandlonger)-and more oftenstartin competitions andmuchmoreto improve their performancethan youngerathletes,

Romuald Lepers and Paul Stapley have investigated this phenomenon and have put together the results of relevant studies. The whole article can be found under https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fhys.2016.00613/Full

Age class float over 3000m at the World Cup

Performance trends in 3000 m open-water age group swimmers from 25 to 89 years competing in the FINA World Championships from 1992 to 2014 Age class sports enthusiast have been usually studied in progress and less in swimming.Although older athletes swim in the pool, there has been a World Cup for swimming over 3000 meters in open waters since 1992. We have now examined the trends for the swimmers of age groups 25-29 to 85-89 years.It turned out that the number of participants over the years rose and the performance over the years became more and better in all ages.As a rule, men were faster than the women.

How Pacen top triathlets over the Ironman route

Positive pacing in elite IRONMAN triathletes Pacing describes how an athlete is changing its speed in an endurance burden. It is generally assuming that in a longer-term load, the speed decreases more and more, which has not been studied for Ironman triathlets.On the basis of 13 Ironman Triathlon from 2014, we are more closely analyzing the 100 fastest finishers.For nearly 1'400 finishers, we evaluated at 8,000 mutacles on the bike range and almost 12,000 mutacles on the running track. It turned into 10 of the 13 competitions that athletes on the cycling line were supplemented at speed, while on the running track in all analyzed competitions decreased the speed.On the bike track, the speed in women decreased significantly more than the men while there were no differences between the sexes on the running track.

Characteristic of Hyponatriaemic athletes

Pre-race characteristics and race performance in hyponatremic and normonatremic finishers of Czech ultra-races The stress-associated hyponatremia is a well-known phenomenon in endurance sports and there are certain risk groups for shorter endurance charges such as a marathon. We have now examined in 138 finishers in long-distance races (multi-stay races and 24-hour races in mountain bikes as well as 100km and 24-hour race in progress), whether there are differences in selected variables such as age, gender, club affiliation, workout, experience, body weight and BMIare. There were no differences between athletes with and without hyponatremia in the target.All the work can be read below http://www.gymnica.upol.cz/artkey/gym-201603-0001_pre-race_characteristics_and_race_performance_in_hyponatremic_and_normonatremic_finishers_of_czech_ultra-races.php

The Ethiopians are the fastest marathon runners

Running Performance, Nationality, Sex and Age in 10km, Half-marathon, Marathon and 100km Ultra-marathon IAAF 1999-2015 We know that the fastest marathon runners from East Africa come and that the age of the fastest marathon runners is 30 years. However, it has not yet been investigated whether the age of the runners differs from different nationalities.We now have the marathon runners also the 10-km runners, the half marathon runners and the 100 km runners analyzed the listed in the leaderboard of the IAAF since 1999. In a total of 38,895 runners were over 10 km and half marathon athletes from Kenya.On the marathon track, both Kenyans such as Ethiopians were most often found.About 100km, however, the most Japanese were found.The best women were over 10km, half marathon and marathon older than men, but over 100km was no difference between the sexes.

Observer reportage

In the suffering society The observer reporter Moritz Marthaler has examined by means of a long-distance wheel race whether and how passing managers are in sports. Surely successfully successful people can also regularly do sports sports.

However, there will be no professionally curved manager in sports to come to the top, not in his age group. In the report, my opinion is also inserted, see http://webreportagen.beobachter.ch/lidensgesellschaft/

Retrospect and Prospect

The hunt for the legend After the competition in Mexico, I conclude the first 20 years long-distance triathlon. I never expect that I can finish such competitions and can win.In 1997, I played my first ultra (triple) and then set a Swiss record in Le Fontanil.Now 2016 I played a triple again and was able to set up a track record. In recent years, I saw many athletes, winners, losers, world champion and was at world record race.Few people stayed true to the sport for a long time and many were forgotten again.Only one of these many has set a brand that seems almost unattainable. The Frenchman Guy Rossi has gotten most of the Ultras and rightly applies as a living legend.His record numbers I will try to try in the next 20 years and try to remove each individual record.

Sex differences in the pacing at Ultraman Hawaii

Sex differences in pacing during ‘Ultraman Hawaii’ Generally, we assume as active triathlets from that one runs slower after a quick cycle split.If you look at a faster runtime on the bike. So far, no one has studied what happens at a multi-papier race with different distances and disciplines like the Ultraman Hawaii.We have now collected all finishers from 1983-2015 and their final times divided into quartiles (Q1 = the quarter with the fastest times and Q4 = the neighborhood with the slowest times).We found out that men and women at the Ultraman Hawaii are very different. For the fastest women, the power took off during day 1 from swimming to cycling, but remained constant during day 2 (cycling) and day 3 (running).
