Improved Race Times in Marathoners Older Than 75 Years in the Last 25 Years in the World's Largest Marathons
Chinese Journal of Physiology 59(3): 139-147, 2016 139 DOI: 10.4077/CJP.2016.BAE382 Improved Race Times in Marathoners Older than 75 Years in the Last 25 Years in the World’s Largest Marathons Baschir Ahmadyar, Thomas Rosemann, Christoph Alexander Rüst, and Beat Knechtle Institute of Primary Care, University of Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland Gesundheitszentrum St. Gallen, St. Gallen, Switzerland Abstract Performance trends of elite marathoners are well investigated. However, performance of elderly marathoners (> 75 years) competing in the world’s largest city marathons is not well-known. We exam- ined marathon race data of 1,691 marathon finishes (i.e. 218 women and 1,473 men) competing between 1990 and 2014 in 5-year age groups 75-79, 80-84, 85-89, and 95-99 years in four races (Berlin, New York, Chicago and Boston) of the ‘World Marathon Majors’. The number of female (r2 = 0.50, P < 0.0001) and male (r2 = 0.88, P < 0.0001) finishers increased significantly across years. The number of women (r2 = 0.36, P = 0.0019) and men (r2 = 0.88, P < 0.0001) in age group 75-79 years increased. In age group 80-84 years, the number of women (r2 = 0.36, P = 0.0111) and men (r2 = 0.54, P < 0.0001) also increased. In age groups 85-89 to 95-99 years, however, the number of female and male finishers remained unchanged. Across years, women (r2 = 0.26, P = 0.0090) and men (r2 = 0.31, P = 0.0035) reduced their race times. Women and men in age group 75-79 years improved race times.

Working in partnership with the Bank of America Chicago Marathon and Chevron Houston Marathon, and their public safety partners, we developed SAFE to enhance logistics, medical preparedness, and response for mass- participation endurance events such as marathons. The system incorporates critical data into a user-friendly dashboard to serve as a centralized source of information during the events. SAFE uses historical and real-time data to provide pre-event and on-site analytics via descriptive, predictive, and prescriptive models. These models help race organizers and relevant stakeholders effectively manage and oversee all participants, monitor the dynamic location of race participants, and manage health and safety resources throughout the event. The system was deployed successfully at the 2014-2018 Chicago
