Read moreNo case of exercise-associated hyponatremia in male ultra-endurance mountain bikers in the ‘swiss bike masters’. The load-associated hyponatremia is observed relatively often in endurance athletes. Today’s opinion is that rather slow athletes drink relatively too much and thereby comes to a dilution. On the ‘Swiss Bike Masters’ we found surprisingly that the fastest drivers drank the most and that still no mountain biker developed a hyponatremia. The results of the study can be found under https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22229504/

Read moreNo case of exercise-associated hyponatremia in male ultra-endurance mountain bikers in the ‘Swiss Bike Masters’ The prevalence of the stress-associated hyponatremia has been studied for swimmers, runners, cyclists and triathlets, but not in mountain bikers.
Often mountain bikers lead liquids and big quantities and could easily supply large quantities of fluids. On the ‘Swiss Bike Masters’ we found in a collective of 37 long-distance mountain bikers not a single case of stress-associated hyponatemia, read below https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22229504/

Finishers and Nonfinishers in the ‘Swiss Cycling Marathon ’ to Qualify for the ‘Race across America’ Often it is reported in sport only by the successful winners or finishers, while non-finishers are not appreciated.Basically, one could expect that there are differences between finishers and non-finishers, which can be important for future starters on an ultra competition. We have compared successful finishers with failed non-finishers at the Swiss Cycling Marathon and tries to find performance-based factors for a successful finish, the results can be found under https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22080313/
