Vpliv plavanja, kolesarjenja in teka na končno uvrstitev v kratkem in dolgem triatlonu : magistrsko delo

Kirn, Primož (author), Čoh, Milan (mentor)

Namen magistrskega dela je bil ugotoviti, katera izmed disciplin (plavanje, kolesarjenje, tek) ima največji vpliv na končno uvrstitev v določeni razdalji triatlona. Zanimalo nas je tudi ali obstaja razlika v doseţenem času glede na spol in starost tekmovalcev v kratkih in dolgih triatlonih. Vzorec preizkušancev je sestavljalo 1378 profesionalnih triatloncev, od tega 689 moških in 689 ţensk, ki so se na posamezni tekmi uvrstili med najboljših 20 moških in ţensk. Uporabljeni so bili njihovi rezultati iz tekem v kratkem (sprint in olimpik razdalja) in dolgem (Ironman 70.3 in Ironman razdalja) triatlonu. Pri prvih dveh hipotezah, pri katerih smo ugotavljali ali imata spol in starost vpliv na doseţene rezultate smo ugotovili, da med spoloma obstaja razlika v doseţenem skupnem času v vseh triatlonskih razdaljah ter razlika v času v vseh posameznih disciplinah. Prav tako smo dokazali, da so ţenske v povprečju v vseh razdaljah triatlona starejše kot moški ter da je povprečna starost tekmovalcev in tekmovalk na dolgem triatlonu kar za pet let večja kot na kratkem triatlonu. V zadnjih dveh hipotezah pa smo ugotavljali vpliv treh spremenljivk (čas plavanja, čas kolesarjenja, čas teka) na končno uvrstitev v triatlonu, pri čemer je bila uporabljena regresijska analiza. Ugotovili smo, da imata na dolgem triatlonu največji vpliv na končno uvrstitev čas teka in čas kolesarjenja, na kratkem triatlonu pa na končno uvrstitev v največji meri vpliva čas teka.

• Title: Impact of swimming, cycling and running on the final ranking in the short and long distance triathlon

Abstract

The purpose of the master thesis was to determine which discipline (swimming, cycling, running) has the greatest impact on the final ranking for a certain distance of triathlon. We were also interested whether there is a difference in total time depending on the age and sex of the competitors in the short and long distance triathlon. The sample consisted of 1378 professional triathletes, including 689 men and 689 women who were single race ranked among the top 20 men and women. We used their results from short (Sprint and Olympic distance) and long (Ironman 70.3 and Ironman distance) distance triathlons. In order to check the first two hypotheses (gender and age have influence on the achieved results), we calculated the arithmetic mean and get the average, on the basis of which we compared the groups with each other (male and female). We found that gender difference exists in total time in all triathlon distances as well as in all the individual disciplines. We have also shown that women are, on average, in all triathlon distances older than men and that the average age of competitors in the long distance triathlon is five years higher than in the short distance triathlon. In the last two hypotheses, we tested the effect of the three variables (swimming time, cycling time, running time) on the final ranking in triathlon, where regression analysis was used. We found that running and cycling time have the greatest impact on final ranking in long distance triathlon, meanwhile running time has the greatest impact on final ranking in short distance triathlon.
