Congratulations on your race finishes, however your work is not quit finished. In order to maintain the integrity of the club, in April of 2018 we have implemented a review board of fellow Maniac volunteers that review each and every one of your races to ensure it meets the criteria. You may be asking why we implemented this? Unfortunately we’ve had many members that were taking advantage of the “honor system” process we had in place for many years. In order for the new review process to work correctly, we need to set a few guidelines Please visit the following web page to see the details of the new process: http://www.marathonmaniacs.com/how-to-upgrade-your-level/ http://www.marathonmaniacs.com 5 Clarisa Sam Angela Tony Kily Tom Jody and Dave Gregory http://www.marathonmaniacs.com 6 Melissa Terri Jim Sandee We now have chapters throughout the U.S. that are run by our Regional Ambassadors to help connect local runners together.

The Main Maniacs decided to create an asylum dedicated to those who are Double Agents. In order to be assigned a Double Agent number you must have your dues paid and updated in both the MM and HF. Your name and e-mail address must match both clubs. Each day a program will run to generate new members. New gear is available for Double Agents as well as a whole new set of challenges as you climb peaks. For more information visit the Maniacs web site.

  • The Impact of Prize Money on Marathon Performance and Acclaim
    THE IMPACT OF PRIZE MONEY ON MARATHON PERFORMANCE AND ACCLAIM A THESIS Presented to The Faculty of the Department of Economics and Business The Colorado College In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Bachelor of Arts By Colbert Heathcott March 2015 THE IMPACT OF PRIZE MONEY ON MARATHON PERFORMANCE AND ACCLAIM Colbert Heathcott March 2015 Economics Abstract In the past century, marathon running has become a major phenomenon in society. As a result, race participation and frequency have increased in the United States over the past decade. With the increased growth of the sport, the amount of money and the overall economic impact of races have risen, causing event organizers and sponsors to face decisions involving race awards and funding. Using an OLS regression model, this study examines the impact of prize money on marathon performance and acclaim. Results reveal marathon running to be exempt from incentive theory, as athletes do not perform better as a result of increases in winning prize money. Prize money also has no significant impact on the popularity of marathon events. Other factors, such as marathon location and history, significantly affect the acclaim of a marathon event. A thorough understanding on the impact of prize money is necessary for the future of the growing sport of marathon running. KEYWORDS: (Marathon, Incentive, Sports Marketing) ON MY HONOR, I HAVE NEITHER GIVEN NOR RECEIVED UNAUTHORIZED AID ON THIS THESIS Colbert Heathcott Signature Acknowledgments I would like to thank Dr. Judy Laux for advising me throughout the process of this research. I would also like to thank Will Richmond for Monday dinners, morning laps in the pool, and forcing me to go to the library.

  • 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.
