Relationship between early-onset muscle soreness and indirect muscle damage markers and their dynamics after a full marathon.

ABSTRACT:

Background/objective

Muscle soreness and damage occurs after completing a full marathon. Here we refer to muscle soreness induced by prolonged running as early-onset muscle soreness (EOMS) because muscle soreness and damage markers induced after prolonged running are different from delayed-onset muscle soreness (DOMS) and muscle damage markers induced after eccentric contraction, such as resistance exercise. The dynamics and relationship between muscle damage markers and EOMS are unclear; therefore, in this study, we aimed to elucidate the relationship between EOMS and indirect muscle damage markers, and their dynamics after a full marathon.

Methods

The following measurements were performed in 19 subjects who completed a full marathon: perceived muscle soreness (using a nume
