Goes from aerobic respiration of carbohydrate to anaerobic respiration of carbohydrate. In the case of marathon runners aerobic respiration of fatty acids will follow depletion of carbohydrate reserves (glycogen).

How does a runner generate continuous ATP when running in a long race?

by drinking lots of water


A runner needs more energy for a race how does the body generate the necessary ATP?

The body generates ATP needed for running through aerobic metabolism, which uses oxygen to break down glucose and fatty acids. In the absence of oxygen during intense exercise, the body resorts to anaerobic metabolism, breaking down glucose without oxygen to produce ATP. This process also produces lactic acid as a byproduct.


Why does a marathon runner eat a large starchy meal before a bi g race?

The large starchy meal allows the runner to store large amounts of glucose in the body in the form of glycogen. All these glycogen would be converted to glucose when he needs them in large amount during the race. The glucose converted can help him when his muscles undergo aerobic or anaerobic respiration.


Would a marathon runner be aerobic or anaerobic?

A marathon runner primarily relies on aerobic energy production to sustain endurance throughout the race. However, there may be some anaerobic energy production during intense sprints or inclines, but the aerobic system is the dominant source of energy for marathon running.


Why is power needed in sprinting?

Power is needed in sprinting to generate the necessary force to overcome inertia, accelerate quickly, and maintain high running speed. The greater the power output, the faster a sprinter can propel themselves forward in a race. Increasing power can help improve sprinting performance by enabling athletes to generate more forceful and explosive movements.

What are the benefits of using runner gel packs during a marathon race?

Runner gel packs provide a quick and convenient source of energy during a marathon race. They can help prevent fatigue, improve performance, and maintain endurance by replenishing carbohydrates and electrolytes.

What is relay race means?

A relay race is a race in which a baton is handed from runner to runner until the baton eventually makes it all the way around the track. Each runner carries the baton a measure, and then hands it off to the next runner.


Why might a runner get cold after finishing a long distance race?

The runner's muscles needed a lot of energy to run during the race. To obtain this energy, his blood first supplies his muscles with oxygen from the lungs. The muscles, through a process called respiration, convert the oxygen and stored sugars into energy. During the race, his muscles used oxygen at a faster rate than his body could supply them with, creating an oxygen debt. To pay back an oxygen debt, a person must breathe at a fast rate. Therefore, the runner was out of breath after the race to pay back his oxygen debt.
