Abstract

To examine the effects of increased O 2 utilization on blood antioxidant status and lipid peroxidation, ten trained male athletes took part in a 20 km distance race. Venous blood samples were removed before and immediately after completion of the half-marathon. Plasma creatine kinase (CK) activity, an index of muscle damage, increased (p
