Issue Number 2 Welcome to Issue Number 2 of the “New Look” Metro Mouthpiece
The newsletter for Metro Aberdeen Running Club members Issue 2 January 2008 www.metroaberdeen.co.uk Issue Number 2 Welcome to Issue Number 2 of the “New Look” Metro Mouthpiece. Once again I would like to apologise for the lateness of this issue, I was aiming to get out 4 editions in 2007 but several factors (excuses) meant that this plan went “t**s up”. I will be endeavouring to get back on schedule for 2008, so get those articles, race reports, jokes, funny stories, pictures and results to me for inclusion as soon as possible at [email protected] Hopefully everyone had a successfull and injury free year of running in 2007? Personally I had a decent enough year, running small personal best times at all distances raced and, most importantly, I managed to avoid serious injury. However, how I managed to avoid hurting myself never mind how I got home in one piece after Bjoern Reiss’ leaving night drinks (pictured right) I’ll never know. My excuse is that I’d been in the pub all day, without food watching the Scotland v Ukraine match so by the time I’d met up with the others I was a wee bit cumbersome on my feet. Thanks to Bjoern for the photographic evidence. Inside this issue On the back page you will find a membership renewal form for 2008. Please complete this as soon as possible and send along with your payment of £12 to: Colin MacKay, 15 Fare View, Torphins, Aberdeenshire, AB31 4DZ. Thanks for everyone who submitted race reports etc, I hope everyone enjoys reading them as much as I did. -

It is surprising that such associations with their potential clinical implications have received limited attention so far despite the ever-increasing number of healthy individuals participating in vigorous and physiologically challenging activities. -

Influence of a Montmorency Cherry Juice Blend on Indices of Exercise
Dimitriou et al. Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition (2015) 12:22 DOI 10.1186/s12970-015-0085-8 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Influence of a montmorency cherry juice blend on indices of exercise-induced stress and upper respiratory tract symptoms following marathon running—a pilot investigation Lygeri Dimitriou1*, Jessica A Hill2, Ahmed Jehnali3, Joe Dunbar3, James Brouner4, Malachy P. McHugh5 and Glyn Howatson6,7 Abstract Background: Prolonged exercise, such as marathon running, has been associated with an increase in respiratory mucosal inflammation. The aim of this pilot study was to examine the effects of Montmorency cherry juice on markers of stress, immunity and inflammation following a Marathon. Methods: Twenty recreational Marathon runners consumed either cherry juice (CJ) or placebo (PL) before and after a Marathon race. Markers of mucosal immunity secretory immunoglobulin A (sIgA), immunoglobulin G (IgG), salivary cortisol, inflammation (CRP) and self-reported incidence and severity of upper respiratory tract symptoms (URTS) were measured before and following the race. Results: All variables except secretory IgA and IgG concentrations in saliva showed a significant time effect (P <0.01). Serum CRP showed a significant interaction and treatment effect (P < 0.01). The CRP increase at 24 and 48 h post-Marathon was lower (P < 0.01) in the CJ group compared to PL group. Mucosal immunity and salivary cortisol showed no interaction effect or treatment effect. The incidence and severity of URTS was significantly greater than baseline at 24hand48hfollowingtheraceinthePLgroupandwasalsogreaterthantheCJgroup(P < 0.05). No URTS were reported in the CJ group whereas 50 % of runners in the PL group reported URTS at 24 h and 48 h post-Marathon. -
