His second-place finish in 2011 prepared him for this year’s race where he claimed his first IRONMAN World Championship title. Jacobs has been solid this season with four wins at IRONMAN qualifying races — includ- ing his third consecutive win at the brutally hot Cobra Energy Drink IRONMAN 70.3 Philippines—and second place at IRONMAN Lake Placid behind Andy Potts. He’s had the fastest run split the last two years, going 2:41:05 in 2010 (third-fast- est ever) and 2:42:29 last year. This year, he had the third fastest run split and an improved bike, which gave him the edge he needed to claim the title. ANDREAS RAELERT Germany • 08:23:40 In 2012 Andreas Raelert continued to show that he only knows the podium when it comes to the IRONMAN World Championship. He returned to Kona, where he took third place last year, and secured second-place at this year’s event. With his result, it became the second time (2010 and 2012) the German has finished in the number two spot. He also has two third-place finishes in Kona, coming in 2009 (IRONMAN World Championship debut) and in 2011. In 2012, Raelert raced the Frankfurter Sparkasse IRONMAN European Championship in Frankfurt, finishing fourth after a crash on the bike.

    Pay Or Nature? the Relative Weights of Pecuniary Incentives and Course Conditions in IRONMAN Races

    Economics World, Mar.-Apr. 2018, Vol. 6, No. 2, 108-120 doi: 10.17265/2328-7144/2018.02.003 D DAVID PUBLISHING Pay or Nature? The Relative Weights of Pecuniary Incentives and Course Conditions in IRONMAN Races Joachim Prinz University of Duisburg-Essen, Duisburg, Germany Phillip Becker University of Paderborn, Paderborn, Germany Most of the studies analyzing the effectiveness of a tournament compensation style use data from an athletic context because data on an individual’s income and output are easily available. While the papers illustrate a positive correlation between the level of prize money doled out by the event organizer and athletes’ performances the impact of pay on productivity might be biased if other fixed and random components are neglected and left out in the athlete’s output function. The aim of this paper is to analyze this bias empirically by using new and detailed information from 62 long-distance triathlon IRONMAN competitions around the world to reassess the motivational aspect of prize money, controlling for course and weather conditions. The results of the OLS data analysis indicate the persistence of the incentive effect provided by remuneration but this effect is mitigated when nature is controlled for. Keywords: tournament compensation, pay-output-correlation, motivation, effort, Triathlon, regression analysis Introduction In recent years the triathlon market recognized its best performance since its inaugural race in Hawaii 1978. In the past season 2015/2016, output grew in terms of new and additional triathlon races as well as finishers all over the world. Much faster than running events (i.e. city-marathons) short- and long-distance triathlon participation rose by 15%-20% p.a.
