Methodology for calculation of distance parameters in sports orientation running
This article has developed a method for calculating the parameters of distances in orienteering running to match the estimated time of the winner for various groups of participants in the competition. Today, the correct calculation of the time of the winner in orienteering competitions is an urgent problem. The purpose of the study is to develop a method for calculating distance parameters in orienteering to match the estimated time of the winner of various groups of participants. For this, an analysis of the average speed at a distance was carried out using the example of the Snow Trail competition among participants in elite groups and younger. Conclusions. The authors of this article propose a developed method as a solution to the problem of correct estimated time for the winner of orienteering running competitions.
