SHEPHARD, MD, PhD Br J Sports Med: first published as 10.1136/bjsm.21.4.166 on 1 December 1987. Downloaded from Laboratory for Exercise Physiology, Faculty ofEducation, Toyama University, Toyama, Japan and School of Physical and Health Education, University of Toronto ABSTRACT Marathon runners tend to form clusters during competition, possibly as a means of improving their performance. Studies of international competitors in Fukuoka and Tokyo races have shown a density of 0.44 to 0.80 runners.m2 among those maintaining a pace of 4.8-5.6 m.s-1, clustering being most marked among elite performers. Some 95% of clustered runners maintained a minimum distance of 0.5-1.5 m from other competitors; moreover, such competitors avoided occupying an angle of ± 15 degrees either before or behind other runners. The phenomenon merits closer study by those interested in the bettering of marathon performance. INTRODUCTION The video records were obtained as subjects ran away Today's marathon races have been called "survival events". from the cameras. The inter-personal distance and angle Typically, the top contestants form a cluster immediately were estimated by standard geometric principles, after the start of the race and victory goes to the survivor correcting for the height of the camera at each of the five among this elite group. Individual runners apparently adjust selected sites and the distance of individual runners from their pace quite finely so that they can sustain this the building where the camera was mounted.
