The effect of prolonged and strenuous exercise on endothelial function in 9 non-elite runners was
researched determining the endothelium-dependent function of the femoral artery (EDF-FA). We realized
that prolonged and vigorous exercise is associated with lower EDF-FA, with non significant trend toward
recovery from 24 hours to 7 days after the race. Studies with more participants are required to determine
the impact of prolonged and vigorous exercise on endothelial function
