Dear Sportscience Listserve members,

I am trying to find relationships between physiological test results from a
labtest and race performance. For the race I have different timing points
during the race and finish time. But they ride 3 qualification rounds,
quarter finale, semi-finale and finale. Can I correlate the labtest results
with qualification results AND quarter finale results AND semi AND finale
results? My opinion is that you over-estimate the relations this way. But
what is the alternative?

I also want to distinguish between qualification performance and semi finale
and finale performance. Which test can I use to have the 3 qualifications on
one side and semi and finale results on the other side?

And while were at it: I also want to distinguish between top 4 in the finale
and 5-8 in the semi finals in race times for all the races (qualifications,
1/4 and semi final). Any suggestions?

With regards,

Albert Smit
