In Pursuit of Scientific Knowledge

Want to learn something about running physiology?  U of Minnesota scientists are looking for subjects in a study on carbohydrate beverages in marathoners.  Details below:

Patrick Wilson, a graduate student at School of Kinesiology at the University of Minnesota, is looking for participants for a research study. This study will compare the effects of two carbohydrate beverages on metabolism and performance during long-distance running. 

If you take part in this study, you would complete two, 2.5-hour running tests on a treadmill while consuming one of the beverages each time. Respiratory gases, perceived exertion, blood lactate, heart rate, gastrointestinal distress, and biomechanical data will be measured during the tests. Each testing session will involve approximately 3 hours of lab time, for which you would be compensated $100 upon the completion of the study. You will also receive free VO2max and body composition testing.

To take part in this study, you must be aged 18-50, have completed at least one marathon in the past year with a time of 3:30 or better for men and 3:45 or better for women, have run 30 or more miles per week over the past three months, and have done one or more 20-mile run per month over the last two months. If you are interested in participating or have any questions about the study, please email Patrick Wilson at wilso733@umn.edu.
