Report of individual changes in anthropological status after finishing Croatian long-distance trail
PURPOSE: Croatian long-distance trail (CLDT) is a first ultra-long hiking trail in Croatia which was created and finished for the first time in 2018. A subject of this research was one of the founders, and the first person to complete the route in a whole. Level of subject's aerobic endurance, as well as basic morphological parameters before and after the CLDT, are reported. CASE PRESENTATION: Subject, a 38 years old male, had started with the trail in April of 2018 and finished in the August of 2018. There was a total of 103 days on the trail. The total distance that was covered is 2281 km. His body weight was reduced by around 8 % (Initial: 70.5 kg, Final 65.0 kg), his body fat was reduced by 21% (I: 16.8%, F: 13.2%). Level of his relative VO2max, measured by progressive incremental walking test on a treadmill was increased by around 15% (I: 44.15 mlO2/kg/min, F: 50.83 mlO2/kg/ min). His maximal incline on a treadmill test was increased by 18% (I:20°, F: 24°) CONCLUSION: Significant improvements in the overall level of fitness was noted. Subject reported no injuries during the hike which had also attributed to these results. Long distance hiking can cause significant changes and improvements in aerobic energetic capacities and morphological characteristics. CONSENT: Written informed consent was obtained from the participant for publication of this case report. A copy of the written consent is available for review from the Editors of this journal supplement issue.
