Title Comparison of a one-year training cycle of two 1500 m runners Author Adam Zenkl Department Department of physical education Supervisor PhDr. PaedDr. Ladislav Kašpar, PhD. Abstract The bachelor's work is focused on an observation of a one-year training cycle of two 1500 m runners who are on almost the same level. The work monitors different ways of their preparation which differ primarily in the number of kilometers run, the amount of aerobic and anaerobic load, or the frequency of special pace. Keywords runner, training, endurance, run, 1500 m, aerobic, anaerobic, anaerobic threshold
Analysis of the performance in the men's marathon run from 1945 to the present in the Czech Republic
PODLEŠÁKOVÁ, Lenka
This bachelor thesis deals with the analysis of the development of the performance of Czech competitors on the marathon track. The aim of the thesis was to find out how the performance of our marathon runners evolved over time and whether the marathon time scale was rather shortened or extended. In the analytical part, there were first described the basic characteristics of the marathon, such as its history, long-run runner assumptions, training developments, the effect of altitude on performance, or, for example, how the state supports marathon runners and sport. The synthetic part of the thesis contains graphs and tables, obtained from data analysis, which were obtained in tables and in athletics yearbooks. These are very important indicators of marathon performance development. Most of the graphs shows that performance has risen since the start of the period under review until the 1990s. In the first half of the period under review, Czech athletes were most supported by the state and the way for their success was more supported by the state than in the second half. The loss of support after the fall of the Communist Party was one of the reasons why we do not currently have a marathon runner who is approaching a new Czech record. In conclusion, it is worthwhile to support a broader base of athletes, where a strong individual sportman can occur who will succeed on the international scene.
Analysis of a pressure distribution on the level of foot and shoe interaction when running in flatlands with minimalist and sport shoes.
Charousek, Jan ; Jandová, Soňa (advisor) ; Zvonař, Martin (referee) ; ZAHRADNÍK, DAVID (referee)
Problem: Running is one of the most widespread physical activities. Incorrect running technique, training quantity but also the runner's equipment can strongly affect health condition of the individual, both positively and negatively. For that reason various trends emerge in the area of running footwear. They include classical sports shoes with different types of impact attenuation as well as the minimalist footwear made to imitate barefoot running, which should be much more natural for humans, as insisted by B. Nigg in his book "Born to Run" - where he says that man was born to walk and run barefooted. Inappropriate shoes can cause various health complications, not only in the foot area. Objective: To find out how foot strike changes in the area of the foot-shoe interaction in running on flat ground when an amateur runner uses minimalist and sports footwear and to draw conclusions for training practice on the basis of the results. Methods: The thesis deals with amateur endurance running in different shoe types (minimalist and sports shoes). The study specimen consisted of 14 female runners (mean body weight 63,31 ± 4,89 kg, height 169,69 ± 4,71 cm, age 31,92 ± 5,34 years, speed in minimalist shoes (MO) 3,34 ± 0,06 m.s- 1 , speed in sports shoes (SO) 3,29 ± 0,06 m.s-1 , weekly mileage 37,54 ± 9,43...

Junová, Hana ; Pavlů, Dagmar (advisor) ; Novotná, Irena (referee)
Title: Evaluation of the most frequent injuries of marathon runners Objectives: The main objective of this research is to evaluate the most common injuries in marathon runners. The research is focused on amateur long-distance runners of both sexes from 23 years of age. Another goal is to analyze the possible causes and factors that influence injuries. Methods: In the diploma thesis, the method of literary research and the method of questioning is used. Theoretical knowledge is drawn from both domestic and foreign literature. Data for analytical evaluation are obtained using a non-standardized questionnaire filled in running races - Libouchecky ultramaraton and Jirkovsky crossmaraton. Total of 156 questionnaires were obtained, 122, of which 61 % were included for analytical evaluation. The IBM SPSS analytics program and Microsoft Excel 2016 is used for data analysis. Results: Study showed that 61 out of the total 122 runners were injured, which is 50 % of respondents. Of these were 23 women and 38 men. Research confirmed two hypotheses out of five. The statistically significant relationship between the cause of the injury and the sex has been confirmed. It has also been confirmed that the distance runners of both sexes and age categories are most susceptible to knee injury injuries. The most common...
Evaluation nutrition of representative and recreational endurance runners
Jančová, Jana ; Vilikus, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Martinča, Jozef (referee)
This bachelor thesis focused on the comparison nutrition of representative and recreational endurance runners. First part is theoretical. It deals with general concepts which are very important for understanding entire work. From general concepts it goes to specific sport nutrition focused on endurance. Practical part evaluates results, which were obtained from respondents. This is an analysis of four-day diet in two groups of people, followed by comparison and evaluation. Respondents from first group are representative endurace runners. Diets of respondents, which compete at high level in endurance sports,specially orienteering, are compared with group of recreational runners. Main objective of this work was to find out whether eating habits of representative endurance runners and recreational runners are different, if so, to what measure. Key words: run, endurance, performance, sport nutrition, diet
Appropriateness of choice to walk or run, depending on the speed of a quick relocation with load carriage
Kopřiva, Jiří ; Fedák, Josef (advisor) ; Baláš, Jiří (referee)
Title: Appropriateness of choice to walk or run, depending on the speed of a quick relocation with load carriage Objectives: Comparison of physiological response of organism during the walk and run at speed 6 - 7,4 km.h-1 with carried load 15 kg with follow-up determination of critical speed in connection with economy of these activities where there were discovered sizes of correlation with proportional representation of fat free mass and working length of lower limb. Methods: The method applied in this research was the quantitative research based on intra-individual and inter-individual comparative analysis. Results: Based on the measured data it has been found out that there is a critical speed at 7,43 km.h-1 (±0,53), with respect to economy of walk compared to run with 15 kg load. The average heart rate during the critical speed was 129 BPM (±9,67). The average energy expenditure per minute during the critical speed was 11,9 kcal (±2,04). In addition there were discovered sizes of correlation between critical speed and the working length of lower limb where rP = 0,9203 was statiscitally significant. (α = 0,05) and between critical speed and proportional representation of fat free mass, where rP = 0,1529 was not found to be statistically significant (α = 0,05). Keywords: quick relocation, load...

Kellner, Petr ; Vágner, Michal (advisor) ; Majerčík, Petr (referee)
1 Abstract Title: The effect of running with a load on postural stability. Objectives: The establishment of changes in postural stability after a 3 km maximum effort run with a 15 kg load. Research sample: The tested subject group was constitued by seven soldiers of the Army of The Czech Republic at the average age of 25,6 ± 2,1 years who are students of the Military specialization at the Faculty of sport and physical education of The Charles University. Methods: This master's thesis was drawn up as a observational study of theoretic empiric character, realised through intraindividual comparative analysis on a group of 7 subjects. Postural stability was examined with RS Footscan forceplate and clinical balance test U.S. Military Academy Stance Test. The run was realised on a treadmill, without and with a load. For statistical analysis nonparametric statistic tests of significance were used. Results: The results of relations between postural control changes and 3km run with a load of 15 kg display a deterioration of postural stability tested after the run. The extend of deterioration of postural stability after 3-km run with a load within tested group is similar to one after 3-km run of analogous intensity. Key words: run, load, postural stability, balance

Title: Case study of walk and run kinematics involution Objectives: Identify differences in the execution of walk and run, their time and space parameters, by two couples in close family relationship (father and son; father and daughter), who participate in the performance sport of running. Methods: Two family couples (3 men and one woman) participated to laboratory and field tests. Each subject participated in two kind of walk (walk on treadmill at the speed of 5km/h and walk on the athletic track - at natural walking speed) and according the abilities to 15 speeds of running locomotion (13 speeds on treadmill and 2 speeds on the athletic track). Kinematics of all speeds was analysed with the software Kinovea 0.8.15. The thesis is a pilot study, that is trying to ascertain the extend of difference of the execution of locomotion of subjects in the male parental line (father and son; father and daughter). Results: Noticeable difference in the characteristics of all measured speeds of locomotion are seen by the older two members of relatives (74,8 and 40,2 years), the faster was the evaluated speed, the larger was the difference in stride length (6 to 25 cm) and in stride frequency in walking as well as in running (23 to 38 steps per minute). For the second tested two members of a family (53,7 and...
