Why the study?
Can physiological measurements predict marathon running performance in elite male and female runners?
Can physiological measurements predict marathon running performance in elite male and female runners?
Physiological parameters, including lactate levels, echocardiographic measures, and anthropometrics, can highly predict marathon running time in elite homogeneous groups of male and female runners.
