About this study

Official title: "Corre, Recupera, Repite, Siempre Saludable".

This study has as main objective to know how the processes of recovery are realized after a race of marathon. For this, the participants of a marathon race are divided into three work groups during the 9 days post-marathon, one with rest in the recovery period, another with continuous race three sessions every 48h and another with three sessions of elliptical every 48h .

Read the detailed description

The marathon runners suffer a high fatigue, as has been studied by different investigations, the proposal of this study is to know how the recovery processes are produced in runners who have completed a 42km test.

To do this, baseline measurements of the runners have been made through stress tests and determinations of biomarkers in blood and urine. Subsequently blood and urine samples were taken the day before the marathon test and blood and urine samples were then taken again on arrival at 24h, 48h, 96h, 144h, and 196h.

At the same time, an intervention was carried out in the recovery phase, with the runners in three groups. The first one performed rests during the 9 days after the race, the second performed continuous race monitored every 48h from the end of the race, and the third group performed aerobic work on an elliptical machine under the same conditions as the group of Continuous race

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in the Blood Physiological parameters

    Blood test

    Measured: baseline, 0, 24, 48, 96, 144 and 192 hours post-race

  2. Analysis of tne changes in the Physical activity data

    Physical activity measured by wearing accelerometer devices. Physical activity defined as sedentary, light, moderate and vigorous. The aim to wear accelerometers devices is to monitor individuals during recovery time post-marathon race

    Measured: One month before the pre-race, accelerometers were worn during seven days. Accelerometers were also worn during nine days starting from the night before the marathon race

  3. Change in the Urin Physiological parameters

    Urin test

    Measured: baseline, 0, 48, 96, 144 and 192 hours post-race

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Self-reported questionnaire

    Personal questionnaire asking for social and training habits

    Measured: One month before the race day

  2. Strength level

    Squat Jump (cm). Two jumps per person

    Measured: pre-marathon race and 0, 48, 96, 144 hours post-marathon race

  3. Analysis of the change of body mass index

    BMI

    Measured: one month before the marathon race day, 24 hours before the marathon race, 2 hours before the marathon race and 10 minutes after the marathon race

  4. Physical Condition

    Maximal oxygen consumption

    Measured: One month before the marathon race day

  5. Body composition

    Bioimpedance analysis

    Measured: One month before the marathon race day

  6. Heart rate

    Recording the number of contractions of the heart per minute (bpm) by using a heart rate monitor during all the marathon race

    Measured: Through marathon completion, an average of 4 hours

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in the Blood Physiological parameters (time frame: baseline, 0, 24, 48, 96, 144 and 192 hours post-race). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03155633, which also lists 9 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
