Abstract:
The purpose of the present study was to investigate the relationships between the peak running velocity, and aerobic and anaerobic capacity in incremental running in pre- and post-competitive season using eight long distance runners. Measurements were peak running velocity, VO2max, running velocity and VO2 at respiratory exchange ratio (RER) 1.0, and blood lactate after exhaustion in the incremental running test. Correlation analysis revealed that pre-season velocity at RER 1.0 and post-season blood lactate were both related to peak running velocity. Furthermore, change in peak running velocity was related to change in blood lactate between pre-and post-season. These results suggest that factors that probably influenced running performance change from aerobic capacity in the pre-season to anaerobic capacity in the post-season, and that running performance during the competitive season may be highly dependent upon anaerobic capacity.
