Abstract in brief

  • The study examines how training volume and longest endurance runs affect performance and running-related injuries in half-marathon and marathon runners.
  • Participants completed questionnaires regarding their training and injuries, allowing researchers to perform analyses on finish times and pace declines.
  • High training volumes and long endurance runs were linked to faster finish times in half-marathon runners and did not increase the risk of injuries, while some indicators in marathon runners suggested the opposite effect.

"In marathon runners, a low training volume (<40 km/wk) was related to a slower finish time and a high training volume (>65 km/wk) to a faster finish time." It's not rocket science. But it's still difficult to run a lot. https://t.co/5xfGulLuF3 https://t.co/pPShPGWvkr

長距離トレーニングとタイム/怪我の関連性についての研究。『量と強度を積むほど成績向上に繋がるが、怪我リスク上昇と関連性はない』という結論。 https://t.co/JhLzOLfy8o 実際は同強度でも頻度上げて負荷分散したか・動いた分ケアしたか等によってリスクは変わるはずなので質に関しても見てほしい
