TO COMPETE or NOT TO COMPETE 1 WHAT IS THE QUESTION ?1 Competition is a word which these days can call forth a whole host of emotions ranging from whole-hearted approval to whole-sale condemnation. It certainly is no help for anyone to suggest that the answer lies somewhere in between the extremes since it is very much a matter of a strictly personal point of view. Just have a look at all kinds of expressions used and in the vast majority of cases a resentment has built up against the pressures caused by competition, disguised or undisguised, in all walks of life and age groups. As a result, to many people'competitor'is the picture of a stereotype, a cardboard cut-out, who is out there to prove him or herself better, bigger, richer, cleverer and whatever superlatives you may like to use to lord it over other people. The end result is the ego-tripper or ego-maniao who manages to spoil the enjoyment of whatever we may be doing . But just because competition has got out of hand in many instances that is not necessarily the fault of the word but rather the use it has been put to. Competition needs to be seen as a tool in the growth and development of a person, physically and mentally, muoh in the sane way as mathematics (the use of figures) is a tool for the sciences and logic. Figures by themselves do nothing, it is only when they are applied that they achieve meaning) competition by itself is sterile unless it leads to personal satisfaction* The questions we need to ask of ourselves are* Competition, for WHAT ? Fitness, for WHAT ? Skills, for WHAT ? What do I want to do with my life, MY LIFE ? In the VMC Road Runners we have a long tradition by now of getting together to do the thing we like to do, namely running for whatever satisfaction and enjoyment it may give to everyone of us.

  • Updated 2019 Completemedia
    April 15, 2019 Dear Members of the Media, On behalf of the Boston Athletic Association, principal sponsor John Hancock, and all of our sponsors and supporters, we welcome you to the City of Boston and the 123rd running of the Boston Marathon. As the oldest annually contested marathon in the world, the Boston Marathon represents more than a 26.2-mile footrace. The roads from Hopkinton to Boston have served as a beacon for well over a century, bringing those from all backgrounds together to celebrate the pursuit of athletic excellence. From our early beginnings in 1897 through this year’s 123rd running, the Boston Marathon has been an annual tradition that is on full display every April near and far. We hope that all will be able to savor the spirit of the Boston Marathon, regardless whether you are an athlete or volunteer, spectator or member of the media. Race week will surely not disappoint. The race towards Boylston Street will continue to showcase some of the world’s best athletes. Fronting the charge on Marathon Monday will be a quartet of defending champions who persevered through some of the harshest weather conditions in race history twelve months ago. Desiree Linden, the determined and resilient American who snapped a 33-year USA winless streak in the women’s open division, returns with hopes of keeping her crown. Linden has said that last year’s race was the culmination of more than a decade of trying to tame the beast of Boston – a race course that rewards those who are both patient and daring.

Tome 2 Éric Rocanières 2 2 8 L’essor des grands marathons populaires 1973-1981 La ligne de départ du marathon de New York est une espèce de bombe à retardement géante prête à exploser derrière toi. C’est le départ le plus spectaculaire en sport. Bill Rodgers Le titre de Frank Shorter à Munich, le premier remporté par un Américain depuis les Jeux Olympiques de 1908, va avoir un grand retentissement aux Etats-Unis. L’intérêt pour la course de fond, déjà avéré depuis quelques années, se confirme. On assiste à la naissance du jogging, course pour tous, à allure libre sans objectif réel de performance. Les effets sont immédiats ; les pelotons des marathons de grandes villes se gonflent brutalement et régulièrement au fil des ans : hommes et femmes courent ensemble. Ainsi, à New York, on passe d’une grosse centaine de participants au tout début de la décennie à plusieurs milliers à l’orée des années 80. Le niveau d’ensemble progresse forcément, surtout en Amérique du Nord. Les performances en 2 :10 voire moins deviennent de plus en plus communes. Avec l’apparition de primes, les meilleurs deviennent de véritables stars de la route. Les medias s’intéressent donc à ces grandes courses qui consacrent de grands champions.
