Resumen

Comparar los mejores tiempos de la temporada alcanzados previamente al gran campeonato (SBprevio) con los tiempos alcanzados en grandes campeonatos en carreras de pista lisas. Material y métodos: se recopilaron desde la página web de acceso abierto de la Asociación Internacional de Federaciones de Atletismo (IAAF) 2320 tiempos finales de hombres y 2312 de mujeres en las pruebas de 100 m, 400 m, 800 m, 1500 m y 5000 m realizados en los Campeonatos del Mundo de la IAAF y Juegos Olímpicos desde 1999 hasta 2019, y sus SBprevio. Se utilizaron t-tests emparejados para comparar los tiempos alcanzados en los grandes campeonatos y los SBprevio entre grupos y sexo. Se utilizaron ANOVA de medidas repetidas para examinar las diferencias en el porcentaje de SBprevio alcanzado en las carreras de los grandes campeonatos (%SBprevio) entre grupos y sexo. Resultados: Los tiempos finales alcanzados en carreras de grandes campeonatos fueron generalmente mayores que SBprevio. La diferencia entre SBprior y rendimiento en los grandes campeonatos se incrementó con la distancia recorrida y disminuyó según avanzaban las rondas preliminares hasta la final. Se encontraron diferencias en %SBprevio entre sexos en finalistas no medallistas en 800 m y 5000 m (p < 0.001, TE ≥0.72). Conclusiones: Los corredores de 1500 m y 5000 m que compiten en grandes campeonatos deben tanto estar fisiológicamente preparados como entrenar para mantener ritmos variables durante la carrera y ser capaces de acelerar al final de la carrera para poder alcanzar un rendimiento óptimo.
