Women swim faster in Catalina Channel

Women cross the ‘Catalina Channel’ faster than men Since 1875 there is a long resp.Extreme swimming events. At that time it began with the English Channel, in the course, the, Manhattan Island Marathon Swim ‘and the Catalina Channel Swim’ added.The Three Events, English Channel Swim ‘,, Manhattan Island Marathon Swim’ and, Catalina Channel Swim ‘are summarized as’ Triple Crown of Open Water Swimming’. Now, when you look at the achievements of these three events, so has been proven so far that in the English Channel Swim ’the best women are about fast as the best men and in the Manhattan Island Marathon Swim’ the best women could even surpass the best men.The question looked like it looks like it in the Catalina Channel Swim ‘.We have now examined the performance of the floats in the Catalina Channel Swim ‘from 1927 to 2014. It showed that the fastest wife has been around 22 minutes faster than the fastest man.If you take the three fastest men and women, the women were around 20 minutes faster than the men.In the 10 fastest women and men, the women were still about 1 minute faster.If you take the fastest men and women per outing year over the period from 1927 to 2014, women were around 53 minutes faster than the men. Over the years, the times for the fastest women and men fell non-linear while the difference between the sexes decreased linearly.

Rhabdomyolysis and hyponatremia

Rhabdomyolysis and exercise-associated hyponatremia in ultra-bikers and ultra-runners. There are information for a connection between load-induced hyponatremia, rhabdomyolysis and renal failure in extreme duration loads. This has been studied and confirmed by the majority of ultra-raptures. We have now examined in 7 different ultra races whether this connection can be confirmed in other disciplines.We found a rhabdomyolysis at 2 hyponatriemic and 4 Normonatriemic runners.

There were no kidney problems for all runners. The whole work can be read below https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26113805/

Hyponatremia despite sodium supply

Symptomatic Exercise-Associated Hyponatremia in an Endurance Runner Despite Sodium Supplementation In general, this is a symptomatic hyponatremia by a fluid overload. In certain circles, it is obvious that a sodium supply should protect against hyponatremia.An American group presents a case report of a runner, which after a load-induced hyponatremia after a nutritional consultation sodium supplied under stress.Despite extensive sodium supply during a 72 km long run, a symptomatic hyponatremia occurred.

Who runs when how fast?

One hundred and fifty years of sprint and distance running - Past trends and future prospects. Proof, the mileage has been significantly improved for sprint and longer running routes in recent decades. An Italian group has been examined by various running competitions as the performance in 2100 will have developed. It is expected that women will be 10-20% slower than the men, the border of 9.50 sec. Over 100 m will be underbuilt only at the end of this century and several records of medium and long distances are broken within the next two to three decades.

Experience in the ultratriathlon

The aspect of experience in ultra-triathlon races Many work suggest that the aspect of experience is very crucial at long to very long endurance charges. We asked ourselves the question of successful finishers of very long triathlon races such as fivefachers or tenfold Ironman have previously made many shorter races or whether their competition times is more important. All women and men between 1985 and 2014 had at least double, tripled, five times and tenfolds Ironman have been considered.It came out that the number of hitherto fantasy shorter races did not correlate with the number of longer races.On the other hand, a clear relationship between the section and conclusion times of the shorter distances was shown with the section and final times of the longer routes.

The age of the best women in sports

A rise in peak performance age in female athletes. Previous studies were of the opinion that the age of the best sporting performance remains stable although the performance of the athletes was getting better and better. In this study, it was examined as the age of the best performance in individual disciplines in the Olympics developed from 1898 to 2014.The men showed that the age of the best performance remained unchanged for most disciplines.

The age of the best competition performance

Age of Peak Competitive Performance of Elite Athletes: A Systematic Review. In a current review, studies on different sports were compiled with the goal of determining the age of the best sporting performance.In sports where fast power is needed, the age of the best performance increases with increasing competition duration.

For endurance charges, however, the age of the best performance increases with increasing competition duration. You can find the very interesting work under https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26088954/

Gender and age in the marathon

Aging Effects on Marathon Performance Insights from the New York City Race. In a recent study, the relationship between age and performance was examined at 370,741 runners at the New York City Marathon between 1999 and 2011. It turned out that the influence of age on the performance in men and women was about the same, but the age had a different impact on the fastest and slowest runners and the gender difference was greater than slower runners. The study can be found under https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25671466/

Competition nutrition at ultra skills

Competition Nutrition Practices of Elite Ultra-Marathon Runners. Due to anecdotes, the Ultralauer has been suspected of increasing carbohydrates with increasing number of runs in training as in the competition with the intention of increasing fat burning and thus improving performance. In order to investigate this, the nutritional behavior of 3 world-class ultra skiers was examined before and during ultra-curls.These 3 runners punished in 2014 totally 16 competitions, gained 8 runs, including the ‘Western States Endurance Run’. Before a run, in average, they took 70 ± 16 g of carbohydrates, 29 ± 20 g protein and 21 ± 8 g of fat.During a 100-mile run, they entered 1162 ± 250 g of carbohydrates, corresponding to 71 ± 20 g / h.This corresponded to a total supply of 5530 ± 1673 calories (333 ± 105 calories / h). In addition, they accepted 912 ± 322mg caffeine and 6.9 ± 2.4G sodium.
