Abstract

The research aimed to identify the level of sports nutritional culture among young 400, 800, and 400-meter hurdles runners, and to identify the relationship, contribution, and impact of sports nutritional culture with some biochemical indicators among 400, 800, and 400 meter hurdles runners. Youth, the descriptive approach was adopted using the correlational method, and the boundaries of the research community were represented by young runners in the (400, 800) and (400) meter hurdles events, representing the players of the (19) Iraqi clubs, with a total number of (114) runners actually participating in the competition. The 2023 sports season qualifiers were held by the Central Iraqi Athletics Federation, from whom (50) runners were randomly selected to represent the main sample, with a percentage of (43.86%), and (30) of them were runners for foundations and scientific transactions, with a percentage of (26.316%) from their community of origin, and (10) of them were runners for the survey sample (8.772%) from their community of origin. The survey was conducted by applying the Sports Nutritional Culture Scale, measuring the metabolic rate (RMR), blood hemoglobin, and the time to which the anaerobic threshold appeared. Then, data for each runner from this sample was collected for each From the scale, tests of the three biochemical indicators, and treatment with the SPSS system, the conclusions were that young runners who ran distances (400, 800) and (400) meters hurdles need to increase their sports nutritional culture, and they need a better level, and that the culture of prevention and nutritional health awareness is better than other fields. Nutritional culture, and they need education on nutritional and weight problems more than others. Sports nutritional culture is linked, contributes, and has a positive effect on the basal metabolic rate, the time of emergence of the anaerobic threshold, and hemoglobin in the blood, among runners who ran distances (400, 800), and (400) meters hurdles among young people, and this achieves one of the sustainable development goals of the United Nations in Iraq which is (Good Health). and it was The most important recommendations are that it is necessary to pay attention to spreading the culture of sports nutrition among young runners of distances (400, 800) and (400) meters hurdles, because of its positive impact on all biochemical indicators (basal metabolic rate, time to the appearance of the anaerobic threshold difference, and blood hemoglobin.
