The Science of Distance Running
Vložit
- čas přidán 2. 11. 2016
- This week Reactions is taking a look at the chemistry behind marathon running. The science that goes on in athlete's bodies is pretty neat. Athletes push their bodies for miles and deal with cramping, dehydration and every runner's worst fear: that extreme form of fatigue called "hitting the wall." Why is endurance running so difficult? With the New York City Marathon kicking off this Sunday, Reactions runs through the science of distance running: why muscles burn, how sweat cools the body and the chemistry of runner's high.

Ever wonder why dogs sniff each others' butts? Or how Adderall works? Or whether it's OK to pee in the pool? We've got you covered: Reactions a web series about the chemistry that surrounds you every day.
Reactions is produced by the American Chemical Society.
I started running during covid started I wasn't trying to stay home..
I was at 315 pounds.. running was hard I couldn't even do a mile. I would get tired by every block.. it was hell.
I kept pushing and now I weight 155 pounds I am 6 feet tall and I can do 4 miles without stopping.. sometimes I push it for more at times I can do 5 miles. In under 45 mins. I love fucking running. It's amazing..
I always hit the wall when I run to the bathroom with the lights off.
Lol wow
YES!!!!! 😀 Comment of the week 🏆
You should rather sleep at home.
Made my day 😎
What 😭
I ran my first marathon on Sunday in Franktfurt and i can recommend it to anyone.
The feeling when you cross the finish line is incredible, its way better than pot and just lets you feel amazing!
PS.: Avoid stairways the day afterwards ^^
Congrats!
As a physician and runner, I loved this simple but accurate merging of science and the athletic experience.
A lady at the gym sells ketone drink on the side that she said stimulate ketosis, I don't know the name sorry. when u r long distance running and hit the wall could a ketone drink speed up the transition or shorten time until "get over the wall"?
Thanks for understanding of how and why O2 affect glycogen breakdown.
Training for my first official marathon right now.
My "wall" when much younger was around 13-14 miles in. After that hell was past, I could run forever.
I ran 20 miles outside last december just for the hell of it. I did experience a runners high, which is basically just an extreme feeling of relaxation.
New runner, just did 10K for the first time yesterday! 1 hr 4 min. Goal is to work up to a half marathon eventually. Biggest advice I could give, do not go too fast! Find your comfortable pace!! I’m doing a 9-10min per mile pace & that feels good but when I started I was doing 7 min & couldn’t last. It’s OK to go slower! 🏃🏻♀️🏃🏻♀️🏃🏻♀️🏃🏻♀️
Don’t give other people advice if you run a 10K in over 40 minutes
@@bojabang2188 Not going out too fast is good advice for all levels and abilities
NOTHANKS NOTHANKS
It’s good to go out fast.
@@bojabang2188 Exactly my thoughts lol
damn, that's a pretty decent fast time
i am a distance runner
🏃🏃🏃
me too 😝
Same here, it's fun, isn't it? lol
i bet ur bad at running
I run the mile, two, and 5k really fast. But I have done marathons too.
I like this one because I'm a runner. I'm training for my 4th marathon 😊
Damn--go you!
That's awesome . I'm 17 and 2 months ago I got into running daily . The most I've ran was 10 miles . I want run marathons . How can I train to get there ?
Great job on this episode!
A runner for sure , but lately, more time on the couch 🛋, had a few issues plantar fasciitis , general ankle and knee issues 😬 ! Having said that , I did a 5.3km race on Saturday in around 30minutes
I've ran about over 100 half and full marathons. Yes, I'm addicted to running. It not only keeps you healthy, it's any easy sport to access. All you need are a good pair of running shoes and some running clothes, and you're good to go. Whether you are running for 15 minutes or 2 hours, you can just go by a near by park or run around your neighborhood. It's just so convenient.
Can you simply mix some kitchen salt in your drink used while running (I for example simply take water mixed with a bit of fruit sirup to keep med going) or does it have to be the mix of salts in an energy drink?
1 mile as fast as I can go and then a mile of sprints, very effective and feels great afterwards
I like how this guy had to wear a piece of tape over the Nike symbol, lol
i thought he was covering his nipple
@@EyeAmBatman that high up?
This route is from Bethesda MD to Georgetown DC. My favorite biking route.
I did run my first marathon this past weekend though.
Niiiiiice!
Love this video
And we love you!
iam a mid distance runner, 5k-10k, mostly because i have to do do strength training and hiit Training just after running. I would love if you post a video on science behind MMA FIGHTS, because it involves almost all muscles and both aerobic and anaerobic respiration.
What's the chemistry for swimming?
We tackled the gross side of pool chemistry here: czcams.com/video/wHIsfVffWf0/video.html (hint: those signs that say "We don't swim in your toilet, so don't pee in our pool"? They're there for a good reason.)
Studies also show that carb loading needs to be preceded by a week of not eating carbs, just like taking caffeine helps if you haven't taken any for a week as well.
Been running for a long time but I never knew you start burning fat at the 20 mile mark. Thanks for this video :)
Well that's my problem I never run 20 miles in one day
So I used to run, but I haven't run in over a year and I've gained a bunch of weight since I stopped. Have any of you done this and been able to get back into it? Was it hard or easy? What motivated you to get back into it?
In training for my second marathon on March 19! \^-^/
Can you avoid bonking altogether by taking energy gels during the run. Let's say 5 or 6 during a marathon?
During a marathon the body starts running low on glucose about 1 hour in, after 1 hour you should try to take an energy gel or bar every 30-45 minutes in order to replenish glucose stores, this also keeps your stomach working stopping you from throwing up.
Distance runner (marathon at 16) and chemistry nerd! Nice channel.
I’m a runner! Used to be a couch potato. Actually mystic messenger got me running thanks to Zen always talking about his workouts. It motivated me!
Nice running shoes ;)
I'm sorry but elite marathon runners are the ultimate athlete. Holding a 4:40 (sometimes lower) mile for over 26 miles?! I mean most people can't hold that pace for half a mile
I love my running :D
interesting, so what happens after running a long distance when in the ketonic state? is it possible to top up on fat and protein rather than carbs to keep going or is that something the human body doesn't agree with or isn't designed for?
Also, how long could you could go without cars just in general life?
"I'm 15 miles into this run, Another 11* to go!" ;)
There's no right distance when you're running from your feelings...
He was training, so 7 :D
So what training do I need to do to run a 20 mile run in 3ish weeks. I’ve always done distance running but never 20 miles 🥵😳. Please give advice.
How do I overcome pre-game anxiety? My long distance running always suffers when my nerves go crazy.
@2:22 the Ketones molecule doesn't have a ketone functional group. It only contains an ester and alcohol. Can someone explain what I'm missing?
Doesn't the ester contain a ketone group? Or am I wrong?
I am Samzelot
From what I thought, a carbonyl would fit that description (double bond O). A Ketones R groups should be carbon.
A carbonyl group fits the discription too. I can't say I'm sure, but I think the carbon atom on the R' side makes it count as a keton ^^
Good catch the structure is actually an ester. Thanks for finding that. The "Ketone bodies" that are produced are quite confusing due to their metabolites but the main ketones produced are Acetone and Acetoacetate.
Kevin Chan My bad then! nice catch ^^
How do you guys feel about ketosis diets in relation to this? Doesn't forcing your body into a state of ketosis mean that you're already starting your race past 'the wall'? I bet that would mean terrible endurance.
We've never met an endurance athlete who does that though I'm sure there are some.
I'm 5,10 and 170lbs, not a bad size for my height but trying to shed some weight to help with the running efficiency.
Great video runners
Great video!

FIRST!!! and hey reactions long time no see.
:'(
*Internet fist bump* 👊
*fist bump launched* >>👊
All of the above
Good video I’m doing my first half marathon at thirteen
Please put up a video on diet before marathon
I love watching people work out on TV from the comfort of my amazing couch while inhaling bags of chips, buckets of ice cream and of course chugging beer..that's my workout
That's me too
I wonder how long it takes to hit "the wall" when cycling.
Well, it depends how careful you are. Usually it happens sooner in urban than in rural areas. But then again, cycling through countryside, you may hit a fence.
Have you guys covered stretching at any length?
Not yet...
God bless you for sharing this. Lovely
I’m a track n XC as well as race walker. Distance all the way 💪
can u suggest a cheap yet efficient energy drink based on its contents?
buy some potassium salt, mix it in with water, add a bunch of sugar, and drink milk before and after

You underestimated the fat burning. It does not start when glycogen finishes, it starts ong before that. What is more, elite athletes try to train their bodies to start burning fat sooner in the race in order to have that source of energy from as soon as possible (fats are really aloric, they give much more energy than glucose).
It's what they use to make Brawndo!
OUET!
Runner. Working on the distance part.
Lol, 'couch based athlete' :-D
me too im athlete at the same time too

Good information, I usually just drink a bottle of water, or Gatorade, and eat a pickle and I'm good to go.
Are you Canadian?
I am a mid distance track runner
I'm eating alot of carbs for a competition which I hope happen one day

Great marathon runners don't eat pasta, they consume anti-inflammatory foods. Most pasta, unless whole grain only causes your blood sugar levels to spike, causing inflammation. It's better to consume greens, vegetables etc.
Science for sprint running pls. Like if you agree

I’m a professional gamer, but I consider myself to be an athlete
15 miles into a marathon, and you have 7 to go?... What about the other 4.2 miles?
Xibalba Barca he’s doing a training run not running a full marathon
I am a runner who is out of breath
I run at the gym and Thought running 6 kilometers was actually good..
I need to get better then!
Nick the cyclist what are you up to these days?
The chemistry seemed a bit too simple for a chemistry channel ngl mah bois
Alternate between water & Gatorade.
I thought the 'fire' feeling in legs was because of muscle tissue 'microtearing'?
I've never heard or seen anything saying that before. If you know of something let us know.
We have a video about protein, muscles and microtears here czcams.com/video/L5-tKciXEG8/video.html if you're inclined.
Matthew Cowell microtearing happens in strenght exercise, not endurance
Duct tape over the Nike logo.. Bahahahahahahaha

Nope, the glucose breaks into Lactate and hydrogen ions, not lactic acid. Please do your homework before putting forward expert advise.
I run
Secret to success...give all glory to God
I run a 6 min mile
Good for you.
I run sub 6 minute mile yeah we need to get faster
Ok I’ve tried drugs and running a half marathon..no, the runners high verse cocaine...no contest from a moment point of view, long term well, that’s could be up for discussion.
I can run 10000000miles haaaaa!
but lactic acid doesn't exist in the human body...
15 + 7 doesn't add up to 26.lol
He was doing a 22 mile run to TRAIN for the MARATHON (26.2 miles)
what about fat adapted athletes who only use water during marathons? you're only educating on one side of the equation, which is misinformation...
The Spastic Tiger do you think it is ethical then?
fully agree, it is kinda misinformation by skipping arguably more important aspect to burning fat for energy in distance running. this makes the video superficial
The Spastic Tiger I agree with you. And let’s face it, the MAJORITY of runners aren’t fat adapted or trying to be. One video can’t cover ALL of running science.
Just smoke weed 😂
