Elite distance running concentrates value in bodies formed in a few highland geographies, yet firms and institutions elsewhere control how that value is recognised and rewarded. This article asks how value is created, enhanced and captured in elite marathon running, and what the case reveals about t...

We model the Lonely Runner Conjecture as motion along the circumference of a circleof radius R centered at the origin in the xy-plane, and we formulate the conditions for arunner to become lonely using inequalities. When there are k runners, we obtain k − 1inequalities. First, we consider the case w...
The aim of this study was to investigate whether daily post-exercise cold-water immersion (CWI) preserves high-intensity running performance and modulates physiological and perceptual stress responses during an eleven-day intensified training period with limited recovery. Seventeen recreational male...
Thermal comfort is critical for ensuring occupant satisfaction and energy efficiency but existing approaches may fall short of capturing the complexities in Indian context. This paper examines adaptive thermal comfort (ATC) in free-running buildings in Chennai, Bangalore, Jaipur and Shimla using the...
INTRODUCTION: Inexpensive consumer-grade wearable sensors have expanded possibilities to assess, monitor, or modify a runner's gait. However, it is unclear which sensor-measured gait metrics are strongly associated with internal loading at common injury locations. PURPOSE: To measure the association...

Abstract Background Recovery strategies are widely used by endurance runners; however, large-scale evidence describing recovery behaviours among recreational marathon runners remains limited. This study aimed to describe recovery strategy utilisation and future interest among Japanese recreational m...
Grid decarbonization forces Francis turbine runners into frequent start–stop and part-load duty, where vortex rope and repeated transients accumulate high-cycle fatigue damage; existing studies isolate conditions and rarely attribute damage to a specific excitation source.

This study evaluates the manoeuvring performance of the KRISO LNG carrier (KLNG2) using a 1/80 scale model in Free Running Model Tests (FRMT) at full-scale speeds of 5, 15, and 19.5 knots. The programme included 35° turning-circle and 10/10, 20/20 zigzag tests. Turning results showed that advance an...
Running-specific prostheses are widely used in Paralympic sport and their performance assessment under real running conditions requires wearable monitoring systems capable of capturing both prosthesis dynamics and athlete kinematics. Existing solutions have been validated in laboratory settings and ...
Light-emitting diode (LED) systems for strawberry propagation are usually compared on plant responses, rarely on electricity per propagule. Five LED lighting systems differing in spectral composition (red:blue photon ratios 1.56–4.07; far-red fractions 0.004–0.262) were compared at a common target c...
PURPOSE: Adolescents with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) often face unique challenges in maintaining glycemic control, with a higher risk of disordered eating behaviors (DEB). While physical activity may be associated with improved metabolic outcomes, its relationship with DEB in adolescents with T1D remains...
Background: Ventilatory thresholds (VT1 and VT2) determined from gas-exchange criteria during cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) provide reference points for exercise-intensity prescription, but their routine use is limited in applied settings. Detrended fluctuation analysis alpha 1 (DFA-α1) ha...

To address the vehicle–bridge coupled vibration induced by high-speed trains meeting on bridges, conventional deterministic analysis methods, which neglect the spatial randomness of train meeting positions, may lead to distorted structural safety assessments and excessive design redundancy. To this ...

Background: Caffeine supplementation and pranayama are used to support exercise performance; however, the influence of caffeine-ingestion timing during combined interventions remains uncertain. Objective: To compare pre-exercise and mid-exercise caffeine ingestion combined with pranayama on cardiore...
Predictive simulations of musculoskeletal models provide an advanced approach to investigating the relationship between shoe properties and running performance. So far, such studies have been performed retrospectively, such that independence of the experimental outcome cannot be guaranteed. Here, we...

Running-related injuries affect up to 79% of distance runners annually. Minimal shoes, promoting natural foot motion and strength, may influence injury occurrence, but their influence across a spectrum of minimalism remains unclear. This study investigated the relationship between shoe minimalism an...
Researchers examined how reliably a shin-mounted wearable sensor could measure tibial impact forces and step rate in recreational runners across two separate testing sessions and between different testers. The device showed moderate-to-good consistency overall, though the margin of error for cadence measurements was notably wide, suggesting caution when interpreting small step-rate changes. This was a preprint study and has not yet undergone peer review.
for runners
For runners curious about wearable-derived data, this study suggests that a single cadence reading from a tibial sensor may carry more uncertainty than it appears. The precision implied by a numeric readout does not necessarily reflect the device's ability to detect genuinely meaningful shifts in running mechanics.
Abstract Purpose Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) offers a promising non-invasive method to assess muscle oxygenation in real time. While asymmetries in muscle oxygen saturation (SmO 2 ) between dominant and non-dominant legs have been studied in cycling, data in running are limited. Such differenc...
City marathons are often positioned as tools for urban branding and socioeconomic development, yet their value is negotiated through stakeholder experiences. This study investigates the 2025 Wuhan Marathon as a communication ecosystem where value co-creation and value co-destruction coexist. Drawing...
Background Inspiratory muscle training (IMT) and plyometric exercise are established conditioning modalities that elicit distinct physiological adaptations, yet their comparative effects on respiratory function and autonomic regulation in youth athletes remain unclear.
