The aim of the present study was to assess whether physical characteristics, training, or prerace experience were related to performance in recreational male Ironman triathletes using bi- and multivariate analysis. 83 male recreational triathletes who volunteered to participate in the study (M age 41.5 yr., SD = 8.9) had a mean body height of 1.80 m (SD = 0.06), mean body mass of 77.3 kg (SD = 8.9), and mean Body Mass Index of 23.7 kg/m2 (SD = 2.1) at the 2009 IRONMAN SWITZERLAND competition. Speed in running during training, personal best marathon time, and personal best time in an Olympic distance triathlon were related to the Ironman race time. These three variables explained 64% of the variance in Ironman race time. Personal best marathon time was significantly and positively related to the run split time in the Ironman race. Faster running while training and both a fast personal best time in a marathon and in an Olympic distance triathlon were associated with a fast Ironman race time.
本研究旨在通过双变量和多变量分析评估身体特征、训练或赛前经验是否与娱乐性男性铁三运动员的表现相关。83 名自愿参加研究的男性业余铁三运动员（M 年龄 41.5 岁，SD=8.9）在 2009 年瑞士铁三IRONMAN 比赛中的平均身高为 1.80 米（SD=0.06），平均体重为 77.3 公斤（SD=8.9），平均 BMI 为 23.7 公斤/平方米（SD=2.1）。训练时的跑步速度、个人最好的马拉松成绩和个人最好的奥林匹克距离铁人三项成绩与铁人三项比赛时间有关。这三个变量解释了铁人三项比赛时间方差的 64%。个人最好的马拉松成绩与铁人三项比赛中的跑步分段时间呈显著正相关。训练时跑得更快，以及个人最好的马拉松成绩和奥林匹克距离铁人三项成绩更快，都与铁人三项比赛时间更快有关。
