Abstract
The physiological determinants of the running speed, and its variation, that will maximize an endurance athlete’s ability to succeed in winning a race are poorly understood. One aspect of the physiological basis of race-pace strategy that has not received appropriate consideration is that of the power-endurance time constraint.
