Proteomic Markers of Non-functional Overreaching During the Race Across America (RAAM): A Case Study.

Unlabelled: In a previous study, proteomics procedures identified blood proteins as potential overreaching and overtraining biomarkers, and a targeted proteomics panel of 21 proteins was developed.

Purpose: To measure targeted blood protein changes in an ultraendurance cyclist competing in RAAM.

Methods: The athlete underwent testing 4-week pre-RAAM and 4-day post-RAAM to determine body composition and aerobic capacity.
