【Supercategory:7. DESCENTE SPORTS SCIENCE Subcategory:7.10 Vol.10

 5km race have been held from 1973 to 1987 in every year. There were twelve joggers who have participated in the race consecutively. We investigated their changes in physiologycal and biophysiologycal parameters before and after 5km race. Subjects were divided into two group, one was seven old-aged group (45~68 years old), and the other was middle-aged group (35~41 years old).
1. Remarked increase in serum FFA level at rest and after 5km rase became noticeable at old-aged group since 10th 5km race.
2. No remarkable changes in cardiovascular responses to 5km race above ten years by the habit of endurance exercise.
3. But, there were some old joggers whose cardiovascular responses and blood biochemical parameters changed larger, when their running time reduced in 5km race which they kept on long terms.
