The correlation of endurance and speed on the performance of Long-Distance Runners 2022 in East Java Province

Abstract

The study aims to investigate the correlation between anaerobic speed and endurance in the performance of a marathon 5 km. Twenty-one athletes (15 males(aged 16.7 ± 1.6 years old) and six females (aged 17.8 ± 1.2 years old). The study relied on A cross-sectional design with a survey test used for a 300 m sprint test, a balke test (Vo2 Max), and the time performed at 5 km. The results of the study analysis data showed that significant relationship between endurance and performance as the result of speed in the 5 km running (p=0.002, r = -0.735) in males. The male anaerobic power and performance had a strong correlation (p=0.000, r=0.944). Female long-distance runners showed a significant relation between VO2 max and performance (p= 0.016, r = -0.894). On the other hand, the anaerobic test had a significant correlation with performance (p =0.048, r =0.814). The study concluded that the endurance (Vo2 max) and speed (anaerobic 300 m) contributed to the running time of long-distance runners 5 K.
