The present study investigated pre-race preparation of a large sample of recreational runners competing in different race distances (e.g., shorter than half-marathon, half-marathon, marathon and ultra-marathon). An online questionnaire was used and a total of 3,835 participants completed the survey. Of those participants, 2,864 (75%) met the inclusion criteria and 1,628 (57%) women and 1,236 (43%) men remained after data clearance. Participants were categorized according to race distance in half-marathon (HM), and marathon/ultra-marathon (M/UM). Marathon and ultra-marathon data were pooled since the marathon distance is included in an ultra-marathon. The most important findings were (i) marathon and ultra-marathon runners were more likely to seek advice from a professional trainer, and (ii) spring was most commonly reported across all subgroups as the planned season for racing, (iii) training volume increased with increasing race distance, and (iv) male runners invested more time in training compared to female runners. In summary, runners competing in different race distances prepare differently for their planned race. www.ClinicalTrials.gov, identifier ISRCTN73074080. Retrospectively registered 12th June 2015.
本研究调查了大量参加不同比赛距离（如短于半程马拉松、半程马拉松、全程马拉松和超级马拉松）的业余跑步者的赛前准备情况。采用在线问卷进行调查，共有3835名参与者完成了调查。在这些参与者中，2864名（75%）符合纳入标准，经过数据清理后，留下了1628名（57%）女性和1236名（43%）男性。参与者根据比赛距离分为半程马拉松（HM）组和全程马拉松/超级马拉松（M/UM）组。由于全程马拉松距离包含在超级马拉松中，因此将全程马拉松和超级马拉松数据合并。最重要的发现是：（i）全程马拉松和超级马拉松跑者更有可能向专业教练寻求建议；（ii）在所有亚组中，春季是最常报告的计划比赛季节；（iii）训练量随着比赛距离的增加而增加；（iv）与女性跑者相比，男性跑者在训练上投入的时间更多。总之，参加不同比赛距离的跑者为其计划中的比赛所做的准备有所不同。ClinicalTrials.gov网站，标识符ISRCTN73074080。于2015年6月12日进行回顾性注册。
