Connal body weight and running speed over 100 km

A faster running speed is associated with a greater body weight loss in 100-km ultra-marathoners. Generally, it is known that slow marathon runners drink more and tend to tend to hyponatemia. Furthermore, there is the opinion that it has to prevent dehydration with a perseverance burden due to a lot of drinking.Ultralauf seem to tackle something different. At 219 100 km runners showed that the fast runners drank more than the slow runners, a lower liquid supply to a decrease in body weight and the runners obviously ran faster when the body weight is accepted.

Liquid and electrolyte household at ultra skills

Regulation of Electrolyte and Fluid Metabolism in Multi-stage Ultra-Marathoners. We have studied at ‘Swiss Jura Marathon’ if the prevalence of the stress-associated hyponatremia is higher than in a simple ultra-based.The prevalence of hyponatremia was not higher than other ultra-rural. The course of sodium excretion in the urine could indicate that the stress-associated hyponatremia could come about by a hormonal dysregulation as a fluid overload.

Change of feet at multilayer

The foot in multistage ultra-marathon runners: experience in a cohort study of 22 participants of the Trans Europe Footrace Project with mobile MRI. Radiologists have examined with a mobile MRI the feet of runners at the 2009 trans-Europa run over 4,487 km. The diameter of the Achilles tendon increased significantly.Also, there was a detectable edema of the feet.

Surprisingly non-finishers developed a more pronounced edema of feet as finishers. All details can be read below https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22619270/

Body weight and speed over 100km

Body Mass Change and Ultraendurance Performance: A Decrease in Body Mass Is Associated With an Increased Running Speed in Male 100-km Ultramarathoners. Generally, there is the opinion that you have to drink as much as possible in endurance charges, so you do not dehydrate.In particular, the dehydration, expressed as a decrease in body weight, should restrict performance. In ultra skills over 100 km, the situation seems to be a bit different.The fast runners drink more than the slow runners, probably because they are supported by a crew.The increased fluid supply but does not lead to a weight gain resp.Stabilization of the weight.

Controlled diet improves performance

A scientific nutrition strategy improves time trial performance by ≈6% when compared with a self-chosen nutrition strategy in trained cyclists: a randomized cross-over study. In a laboratory study, we have examined whether a controlled delivery of food improves performance over the own strategy of athletes. If the athletes got the food checked according to schema, the performance in a time trial after a permanence burden was significantly improved while the athletes who nourished on their own fists, poor sections. The study can be found under https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22587540/

Mastertriathletes and their IRONMAN performance

Master triathletes have not reached limits in their Ironman triathlon performance. We examined the performance development of the finishers between 18 and 64 years at the, Ironman Switzerland ‘from 1995-2010. If the times of 1995-2010 were divided into intervals of 4 years (1995-1998, 1999-2002, 2003-2006, and 2007-2010), the Masterathlets (over 40 years) have increased by 23% every 4 years,28%, 37% and 48%.In addition, they have continuously improved in swimming, cycling, running, and for the entire route. It can be assumed that the Masterathlets will continue to improve their performance over the next few years. All details below https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22582950/

Comparison of elite and hobby ultrar wheel drivers

A comparison of ultra-endurance cyclists in a qualifying ultra-cycling race for Paris-Brest-Paris and Race Across America - Swiss cycling marathon. We have ultra-wheelers who want to qualify for ‘Paris-Brest-Paris’ with ultra-cyclists who want to qualify for the ‘Race Across America’ compared to training and physique. It turned out that the cyclists in preparation evoked the training very specifically on the race. The study can be found under https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22582679/

What influences the performance in long-distance inline coatings?

Age, training, and previous experience predict race performance in long-distance inline skaters, not anthropometry. At ‘Inline 111’, the longest inline race of Europe, we examined what variables affect performance. The most important sizes was the age of athletes, the time spent per training session as well as the personal best time on, inline 111 ‘. All details can be found under https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22582684/

Comparison of Ironman triathlets and cyclists

A Comparison of Anthropometric and Training Characteristics among Recreational Male Ironman Triathletes and Ultra-Endurance Cyclists. An older study believed that Ironman was very similar to triathlets regarding the body building. We now compared 83 Ironman Triathlen and 84 long-distance corporation with respect to physique and training. But it showed up that Ironman triathlets and long-distance wheelers with respect to the body building differ significantly. Even in training, there were more differences than similarities.
