This relationship ‘levels off’ at a ever, while the utilization of W0 may be assumed to be ‘critical power’ (CP) that separates power outputs that can linear, studies indicate that the reconstitution of W0 may be be sustained with stable values of, for example, muscle curvilinear with kinetics that are highly variable between phosphocreatine, blood lactate, and pulmonary oxygen individuals. This has led to the development of a new CP 0 uptake (V_ O2), from power outputs where these variables model for intermittent exercise in which the balance of W 0 change continuously with time until their respective min- remaining (WBAL) may be calculated with greater accuracy. imum and maximum values are reached and exercise Field trials of athletes performing stochastic exercise 0 intolerance occurs.

  • Festus Talam Demonstrates the Runczech Racing Project at Full Strength in the DLL Eindhoven Marathon
    PRESS RELEASE 13th October 2016 Festus Talam demonstrates the RunCzech Racing project at full strength in the DLL Eindhoven Marathon Festus Talam is not the first man to start a marathon as pacemaker and finish it as a winner, but he is simply the best. Talam, 21, was making his marathon debut in Eindhoven last Sunday, October 9. But, having completed his pacing duties at 35K, he carried on to smash a high-class elite field and record a superlative winning time of 2:06:26, the fastest ever for a debutant. Born in Baringo County in Kenya, Festus started to train at the age of 15 with a dream of having a better life for himself and his family, like thousands of other Kenyan runners. “I didn’t like running in the beginning, but my family encouraged me to train. They believed I had talent.” – recalled Festus. His first international race Festus organized by himself. “I just wanted to run a race overseas. They had a series of three races in two days, and I told them I will win all,” – said a smiling Festus, - “and I did.” Talam was drafted into the RunCzech Racing team in 2014 by the late Zane Branson and his management team. That same year, Festus made his international debut as a RunCzech Racing athlete in the Mattoni Karlovy Vary Half Marathon, where he finished second with a personal best of 1:02:25. That was followed by reasonable performances in various races in Europe. In 2015 for the first time Festus tried out the role of a pacemaker in the Eindhoven Marathon, and impressed everybody with a strong performance up to 32K, at 2:05 marathon pace.

    September 20, 2017 Reporters May Contact: Alex Sawyer, Bank of America Chicago Marathon, 1.312.992.6618 [email protected] Diane Wagner, Bank of America, 1.312.992.2370 [email protected] Olympians, NYC Champions Among Added Athletes to 2017 Bank of America Chicago Marathon Elite Field CHICAGO - Today, the Bank of America Chicago Marathon announced changes to the elite field for the Oct. 8, 2017 race. Men’s field Stanley Biwott (KEN) will make his Bank of America Chicago Marathon debut as the seventh- fastest man in history over the marathon distance (2:03:51) and the 11th-fastest in history over the half marathon on a record-eligible course (58:56). Biwott made his mark in the Abbott World Marathon Majors with a victory at the 2015 TCS New York City Marathon, and with a standout performance at the 2016 London Marathon, finishing second to Eliud Kipchoge (KEN) in a career best, 2:03:51 (Biwott and Kipchoge share the 30K world record, 1:27:13, set during the London Marathon). Biwott has finished in the top five of 10 marathons. Feyisa Lilesa (ETH) gained international attention at the 2016 Rio Olympics when he finished the marathon with a silver medal. However, he initially made a name for himself in 2010 when, just two months after his 20th birthday, he became the youngest athlete to break 2:06 in the marathon with a 2:05:23 performance in Rotterdam. He has run well in Chicago, finishing third in 2010 and coming back in 2012 to chase Tsegaye Kebede (ETH) to the line for second place and a new personal best, 2:04:52.

  • MARATHON (WO)MAN… Made in Athènes… Since 1896 !
    NEWSLETTER N°13 JUILLET 2021 CÔTE DE JADE ATHLETIC CLUB Convivialité | Entraide | Performance L’édito d’été d’un triathlète impliqué, Samuel Brégeot "Depuis quelques semaines, on se réjouit de voir que le sport en compétition redémarre. Tout le monde connaît le triathlon avec le traditionnel enchaînement Natation / Vélo de route / Course à pied (CAP). Mais la section est tout d'abord définie comme un sport de disciplines enchaînées. On pratique de multiples épreuves combinées : - le Cross triathlon (on remplace le vélo de route par un VTT et la CAP se déroule toujours en mode trail, pour ceux qui préfèrent la nature au bitume)... - l'Aquathlon (natation / CAP) pour ceux qui n'aiment pas le vélo... - le Duathlon (CAP / vélo / CAP) pour ceux qui ne savent pas nager ... - le Vétathlon est la version nature de ce dernier avec du VTT à la place du vélo de route... - le Run&Bike par équipe de 2 pour ceux qui adorent sauter sur leur vélo et piquer des sprints... - le SwimRun en binôme où tu nages avec tes chaussures et tu cours avec ta combi, - des épreuves en équipe (triathlon, duathlon) ou en relais (chacun fait son sport de prédilection)... - le Swim&Bike, euh non ce sport n'existe pas (pas encore ) !!! Bien-sûr toutes ces épreuves sont proposées avec toute une palette de distances. Du triathlon XS (300m de nat' + 10km de vélo + 2,5km de Cap) jusqu'au XL, plus connu sous le nom d'Ironman (3,8km de nat' + 180km de vélo + 42km de CAP). Les pratiques sont très variées et c'est ce qui fait le charme de ce sport.
