Abstract

This study investigated heart-rate (HR) and lactate responses of 31 club-level orienteers (age 23-68 years) during competitions in technically easy (TE) and technically difficult (TD) terrain. HR was monitored throughout the events, and capillary-blood samples for lactate analysis were taken at a midpoint and at the finish. HR and lactate responses were relatively consistent within and between events
