This event holds a special place in the hearts of many runners, supportive family members, spectators, Seward community members, fellow Alaskans, and visitors from around the world. Even before Seward was founded in 1903, locals would run up Lowell Mountain to spot incoming steamships. When a ship was spotted, the climbers would race down the mountain to be the first to alert the community. This tradition prompted a bet that a runner could make it up and down the mountain in under an hour. The first attempt took Al Taylor one hour and 20 minutes. Word of the one-hour challenge spread across Alaska. The first organized race was held in 1915. James Walters won with a time of one hour and two minutes. It would be several years before “Seward’s mountain marathon” turned Lowell Mountain into Marathon Mountain. Today, the community of Seward continues to warmly welcome athletes and visitors to our town to celebrate Independence Day. Through the years, this event has grown to mean many things to many people, but the heart of the event remains the same.

  • Differences in Age of Peak Marathon Performance Between Mountain and City Marathon Running - the ‘Jungfrau Marathon’ in Switzerland
    Chinese Journal of Physiology 60(1): 11-22, 2017 11 DOI: 10.4077/CJP.2017.BAE400 Differences in Age of Peak Marathon Performance between Mountain and City Marathon Running - The ‘Jungfrau Marathon’ in Switzerland Beat Knechtle1, 3, Pantelis Theodoros Nikolaidis2, Matthias Alexander Zingg3, Thomas Rosemann3, and Christoph Alexander Rüst3 1Gesundheitszentrum St. Gallen, St. Gallen, Switzerland 2Department of Physical and Cultural Education, Hellenic Army Academy, Athens, Greece 3Institute of Primary Care, University of Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland Abstract The age of the best marathon performance has been well investigated for flat city marathon running, but not for mountain marathon running. The aim of this study was to determine the age of the best mountain marathon performance and to compare to results of a flat city marathon. Race times and ages of finishers of a mountain marathon with 1,830 m of altitude change (Jungfrau Marathon, Switzerland) and two flat city marathons (Lausanne Marathon and Zurich Marathon, Switzerland) were analysed using linear, non-linear and mixed-effects regression analyses. Race times were slower in the mountain compared to the city marathon. In both the mountain marathon and the city marathons, women and men improved performance and men were faster than women when the fastest per year and all per year were considered. When the fastest runners in 1-year age intervals were considered in the mountain marathon, the fastest man (3:01 h:min) was ~35.6 years and the fastest women (3:28 h:min) ~34.5 years old. When all finishers were considered in 1-year age intervals, the fastest men (4:59 h:min) were ~29.1 years old and the fastest women (5:16 h:min) were ~25.6 years old.

    Aire Affairs October 2015 1 Aire Membership - Adrian Hall Hi, just in case you hadn't realised, I'm your membership secretary. I might have introduced myself at an event recently, or maybe I haven't got that far yet. I know many names and many faces, but sometimes joining the two together takes a while. You can contact me on membershipATaire.org.uk for any membership related queries. If you're not currently a member, it's easy to join: just pop over to http://www.britishorienteering.co.uk/join_online and enter your details. Our local association is YHOA and the club you are looking to join is AIRE Senior membership is £15 (£10 for AIRE membership, £5 for BOF membership) Junior membership is £2 (£2 for BOF membership) To keep things simple, we don't offer a family membership as such. So a family of 2 adults and 2 children would still be £34 Membership will get you discounted entry to events (and some events require BOF membership) plus a copy of Aire Affairs keeping you up to date with club information, training tips and reports. We also hope to run some coaching this year for club members - watch this space Cover Photo: Joe Woodley 'bounces' at the JWOC Swiss Training Camp 2 Contents Aire Membership - Adrian Hall ........................................................................................................... 2 Edit O - Pete Jones .............................................................................................................................. 4 Chair Affairs - Ian Marshall .................................................................................................................

  • Sporting Backgrounds of Orienteers
    Understanding the Sporting Backgrounds of Orienteers The survey was live between 24 July and 8 August 2016 with the 617 responses from people attending the Croeso multiday events (179 people) and through an online survey (438 people). The 617 people who responded provided some excellent insight into their sporting backgrounds. Of these 89% were members of British Orienteering. Included are a summary, detailed analysis (page 4) and Appendix (page 18) containing the raw responses to two questions. Summary Q1: How did participants first become involved in orienteering? The majority of people first participated in orienteering through 4 main routes: They went along with a friend or colleague (23%) They were taken by parents, family members or partners (22%); if ‘trying orienteering because you went along with your children (6%)’ is added to this it amounts to the largest route into orienteering (28%) They went along to an event (17%) They first tried it at school (14%) These 4 pathways into the sport accounted for 82% of those taking the survey and family pressures make family and partners the biggest single route into the sport. There were a few surprises amongst the other routes taken, for instance via the military (4%) and through trying orienteering at university (6%). Q2: How frequently do participants orienteer? The majority of people that completed the survey were members of British Orienteering (89%) therefore it is not surprising that 40% take part in orienteering activities weekly; another 40% take part once a month or more frequently and only 20% orienteer less frequently than monthly. Overall there is a very dedicated group of orienteers.
