Figure 1From: Water and sodium intake habits and status of ultra-endurance runners during a multi-stage ultra-marathon conducted in a hot ambient environment: an observational field based study Water ingestion habits during running of UER along MSUM competition. (A) Total water ingestion, (B) Total water ingestion corrected for BM, (C) Rate of water ingestion. Mean (SD): UER (■, n = 54), slow runners (SR ∆; MSUM mean speed <8 km/h, n = 32), and fast runners (FR ◊; MSUM mean speed ≥8 km/h, n = 22). ‡‡ p < 0.01 and ‡ p < 0.05 vs. Stage 4; cc p < 0.01 and c p < 0.05 vs. SR.Back to article page
