Dear Athlete,

The research team from the School of Sport Health and Exercise Sciences, Bangor University would like to thank you for your interest. We are interested in recovery and performance, especially in the needs of recreational athletes who have to balance between work/daily activities with training and competition. This study is in collaboration with the Maratona dles Dolomites. We will conduct an online data collection to investigate into the training, recovery and well-being of the athletes who are preparing for the 2019 Maratona Dles Dolomites race. If taking part in the research project sounds interesting to you, we have two options for you to select from. Both options are delivered exclusively online. We have provided a quick summary of each option below, followed by a link to further details. Please read the information sheet in each link carefully. Then, if you decide to take part in the project, please complete the consent form for the option you choose.
