An Examination of a Morphological, Cardiorespiratory and Biomechanical Model of Endurance Running Performance
… make in accounting for individual differences in endurance running performance of trained adult recreational runners. It was hypothesized that (1) cardiorespiratory function is the major determinant of endurance running performance, and (2) that selected morphological and biomechanical measures …

Relationship Between a Proxy of Prenatal Testosterone (2D:4D) and Determinants of Endurance Running Performance
… repeats on exon-1 of the androgen receptor gene. Endurance training has led to higher increases in maximal oxygen uptake capacity (VO2max) in men with relatively low numbers of CAG triplet repeats, suggesting a relationship between R-L 2D:4D and VO2max. Moreover, Low right and left 2D:4D are …

Investigation of the impact of compression garments on endurance running performance and exercise induced muscle damage in the lower leg
… study was conducted in healthy, uninjured endurance runners (n=41) participating in the Old Mutual Two Oceans 56km race. The experimental group (n=20) trained for six weeks and participated in the race wearing below knee compression garments while the control group (n=21) did not. …

Investigation of selected collagen genes in exercise-related musculoskeletal soft tissue phenotypes
… Cruciate Ligament (ACL) ruptures in females, (3) endurance running performance and (4) range of motion (ROM). Since this gene encodes for an important structural component of the collagen fibril it has been hypothesised that variants within other collagen fibril encoding genes, such as COL3A1, …

Differences in five kilometer time trial performance during the recovery period after an ultramarathon race
… stress and recovery to achieve maximal performance. Previous studies have shown that exercise induced muscle damage has a negative influence on endurance running performance, and that these negative effects may be mediated by an increased perception of effort. There is a lack of evidence …

Relationships between running economy and mechanics in middle-distance runners
Running economy (RE), i.e. the oxygen consumption at a given submaximal speed, is an important determinant of endurance running performance. So far, investigators have widely attempted to individuate the factors affecting RE in competitive athletes, focusing mainly on the relationships between RE …

Physiological and biochemical responses to exercise and training in adolescent runners
… training status, age and maturity in sub-elite, endurance trained adolescents. Maximal lactate steady state was investigated and the effects of endurance training programmes measured. The first study assessed the reliability of absolute running speed, V02, and HR that correspond to the fixed …

Accuracy of prediction of edurance running performance : relationship to training history, muscle pain and relative perception of effort
Background: Endurance running performance is a complex interaction between training factors, exercise-induced muscle damage, and fatigue. The accuracy of prediction of running performance allows for the consideration of the effects of teleoanticipatory factors such as pacing and prior experience on …

Gastrocnemius muscle structure and function in habitually resistance-trained marathon runners and traditionally running-trained marathon runners: a comparative analysis
Background: Marathon running involves running long distances and is associated with a high prevalence of running-related injuries. The calf has been identified as one of the most commonly injured structures during running. Running training causes an overload on muscle and stimulates a physiological …

Diet, hydration, lifestyle and training practices of elite Kenyan endurance runners
Since the emergence of Kenyan endurance runners on the world stage at the 1968 Mexico Olympics, where they won 8 medals ranging from 400 m relay to the 10 000 m, Kenyan success has grown year on year. The staggering success of a country that compromises just 0.5 % of the world population has …
