Running economy and metabolic responses following exercise- induced muscle damage at two different velocities [PDF]
Eccentric contractions predispose muscles to damage. Type II muscle fibers are more susceptible than type I, so it seems that contraction velocity interferes in mechanical stress and thus muscle damage.

Physiological aspects of running economy
The study of running economy has important performance implications for the long-distance runner and may provide insight into mechanisms underlying economical human locomotion. Physiological aspects of running economy discussed in this paper include intraindividual variability, body temperature, heart rate, ventilation, muscle fiber type, gender, air ...
