Popis: Introduction:The aim of this study is to examine and evaluate the effects of long-term stress on muscle and heart biomarkers after completing a 100 km ultramarathon. Material and Methods:Venous blood samples of nine runners (average age 38.8±10.2 years), who successfully finished a 100 km ultramarathon at an elevation of 3130 m, were examined before the start, at the finish line immediately after the run, one day after the run and then after 5 and 10 days. Clinical, laboratory, and somatometric data were obtained from all measurements, and biomarkers: aspartate aminotransferase (AST), cortisol (COR), troponin T (cTnT), creatine kinase (CK) and C-reactive protein (CRP). Also, their training experience and ultramarathon experience was monitored. Discovered values were further analyzed with the use of t-test a ω2(ω2≥0.1), and Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient (r) at the significance level of p
