    Rodríguez-Marroyo1, J.A. et al.: PHYSIOLOGICAL DEMANDS OF MOUNTAIN... Kinesiology 50(2018) Suppl.1:60-66 PHYSIOLOGICAL DEMANDS OF MOUNTAIN RUNNING RACES Jose A. Rodríguez-Marroyo1, Javier González-Lázaro2,3, Higinio F. Arribas-Cubero3,4, and José G. Villa1 1Department of Physical Education and Sports, Institute of Biomedicine (IBIOMED), University of León, León, Spain 2European University Miguel de Cervantes, Valladolid, Spain 3Castilla y León Mountain Sports, Climbing and Hiking Federation, Valladolid, Spain 4Faculty of Education and Social Work, University of Valladolid, Valladolid, Spain Original scientific paper UDC: 796.61.093.55:612.766.1 Abstract: The aim of this study was to analyze the exercise intensity and competition load (PL) based on heart rate (HR) during different mountain running races. Seven mountain runners participated in this study. They competed in vertical (VR), 10-25 km, 25-45 km and >45 km races. The HR response was measured during the races to calculate the exercise intensity and PL according to the HR at which both the ventilatory (VT) and respiratory compensation threshold (RCT) occurred. The exercise intensity below VT and between VT and RCT increased with mountain running race distance. Likewise, the percentage of racing time spent above RCT decreased when race duration increased. However, the time spent above RCT was similar between races (~50 min). The PL was significantly higher (p<.05) during the longest races (145.0±18.4, 288.8±72.5, 467.3±109.9 and 820.8±147.0 AU in VR, 10-25 km, 25-45 km and >45 km, respectively). The ratio of PL to accumulative altitude gain was similar in all races (~0.16 AU·m-1).

  • Pacing in Time-Limited Ultramarathons from 6 to 24 Hours—The Aspects of Age, Sex and Performance Level
    Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2021 Pacing in Time-Limited Ultramarathons from 6 to 24 Hours—The Aspects of Age, Sex and Performance Level Deusch, Hagen ; Nikolaidis, Pantelis T ; Alvero-Cruz, José Ramón ; Rosemann, Thomas ; Knechtle, Beat Abstract: (1) Background: Compared with marathon races, pacing in time-limited ultramarathons has only been poorly discussed in the literature. The aim of the present study was to analyze the interaction of performance level, age and sex with pacing during 6 h, 12 h or 24 h time-limited ultramarathons. (2) Methods: Participants (n = 937, age 48.62 ± 11.80 years) were the finishers in 6 h (n = 40, 17 women and 23 men), 12 h (n = 232, 77 women and 155 men) and 24 h (n = 665, 166 women and 409 men) ultramarathons. The coefficient of variation (CV), calculated as SD/mean, was used to described pacing. Low scores of CV denoted a more even pacing, and vice versa. A two-way analysis of variance examined the main effects and interactions of sex and race duration on age, race speed and pacing. (3) Results: More men participated in the longer race distances than in the shorter ones and men were older and faster than women. Comparing the 6 h, 12 h and 24 h races, the finishers in the 6 h were the fastest, the finishers in the 12 h were the oldest and the finishers in the 24 h showed the most variablepacing. Furthermore, the faster running speed in the 12 h (women, r = −0.64; men, r = −0.49, p < 0.001) and the 24 h (r = −0.47 in women and men, p < 0.001) was related to less variable pacing.

  • Half Marathon Training – from First Timers to Faster Times
    Half Marathon Training – From First Timers to Faster Times “Half Marathon”… To the uninitiated, the tone of this title hints at a runner on the way to something bigger and better. And you might be, but the half marathon is also a brilliant goal all its own. It’s long enough to be challenging, but doesn’t take months to train for or recover from. A beginner can build to a half marathon in four to six months; a regular lunchtime runner could step up to the 21.1k challenge in two or three months; and anyone who regularly runs one hour could get ready in four to six weeks. In short, taking on a half marathon fits into any lifestyle and any level of fitness. Whether a first timer, second timer or 10-timer – this is for you. If you’ve been running for a while – say 45min, Shorter runs more often is always better than run, try running longer in one run & shorter in three times a week for two or three months – longer running less often. Recreational the next run. So instead of running, say, 45 you could be as little as eight weeks away from runners, for example, will benefit more by minutes every run, you’ll get faster completing your first half marathon. If you’re running every second day than running five improvements by alternating runs of 60 more of a beginner, though, it’s better to work days in a row and then being forced to take minutes and 30 minutes. through a series of goals.

  • 2015 Alaska Runner's Calendar
    ALASKA RUNNER'S CALENDar 2015 The running community is extremely proud to have selected this outstanding candidate for the cover of the 2015 Alaska Runner’s Calendar. (Photo courtesy of Anchorage Running Club) Flip and Patti Foldager Hiking along a trail on the Kenai Peninsula, in the Anchorage Bowl or somewhere in the Mat-Su Valley, it would not be unheard of to suddenly be passed by Flip and Patti Foldager out for one of their trail runs. For more than 35 years, the Foldagers have been an inspirational and active force within Alaska’s running community – in particular, mountain running. Not only are they highly accomplished athletes but they have given much of their time to create, support and promote numerous running events and activities. When referring to the Foldagers enduring athletes, it becomes clear when you look at the events they have participated in. Flip has competed in Mount Marathon 35 times; Patti only 32 (but she did win it twice and took second five times). Basically, if there is a trail run somewhere between Homer and Talkeetna, chances are the Foldagers have done it. Events they have tackled are: Mat Peak, Lazy Mountain, Crow-Pass Crossing, Bird Ridge, Alyeska Classic Mountain Run, Hope Wagon Run, Lost Lake, Dip Sea Race,…the list goes on and on. They also assisted with and participate in the Exit Glacier Run. Of course, their true impact has been in how they have given back to the running community. Living in Seward, Flip is a volunteer for Mount Marathon Race and Safety committee.

  • Athletics Is an Exclusive Collection of Sporting Events That Involve Competitive Running, Jumping, Throwing, and Walking. the Mo
    Athletics is an exclusive collection of sporting events that involve competitive running, jumping, throwing, and walking. The most common types of athletics competitions are track and field, road running, cross country running, and race walking. The simplicity of the competitions, and the lack of a need for expensive equipment, makes athletics one of the most commonly competed sports in the world. Organised athletics are traced back to the Ancient Olympic Games from 776 BC, and most modern events are conducted by the member clubs of the International Association of Athletics Federations. The athletics meeting forms the backbone of the modern Summer Olympics, and other leading international meetings include theIAAF World Championships and World Indoor Championships, and athletes with aphysical disability compete at the Summer Paralympics and the IPC Athletics World Championships. Etymology The word athletics is derived from the Greek word "athlos" (0șȜȠȢ), meaning "contest" or "task." Initially, the term was used to describeathletic contests in general ± i.e. sporting competition based primarily on human physical feats. In the 19th century in Europe, the term athletics acquired a more narrow definition and came to describe sports involving competitive running, walking, jumping and throwing. This definition continues to be the most prominent one in the United Kingdom and most of the areas of the former British Empire. Furthermore, foreign words in many Germanic and Romance languages which are related to the term athletics also have a similar meaning. In contrast to this, in much of North America athletics is synonymous with athletic sports in general, maintaining a more historic usage of the term.
