I have no qualifcations in that regard. I’m sure I understand the most im- Iportant aspects of nutrition. My doctor has never expressed any worry about my health or about my ability to properly nourish my run- ning habit so as to prevent injury and long-term harm, a danger that is thankfully garnering more conversation. I don’t fall ill frequently, so I must be doing something right. There are lots of reasons I don’t care for diet in the way our culture typically understands the word, namely in the way in which the dieting in- dustry has taught us to understand it. Anything that imposes counting or a points system on eating and cooking, which together form one of the most joyous activities I’ve ever known, isn’t worth it. Nor do I care to evaluate my self worth in terms of a number or a certain appearance. The only guiding principle I’ve ever found to work for me when it comes to food is sensi- bility. It’s just not sensible to overindulge all the time if you’re working on reaching your best level of ftness.

    Tom Longboat and the First World War Robert K. Hanks1 in May 1919

    Tom Longboat and the First World War Robert K. Hanks1 In May 1919, Tom Longboat returned to Toronto after serving just over three years in the Canadian army and two years overseas in Europe. When asked by the prominent Toronto Daily Star sports reporter, Lou Marsh, what he had done “over there”, Tom simply replied: “Oh, anything – carrying messages, running, dispatch riding and digging ditches.” This taciturn reply prompted Marsh to complain to his readers: “In my time I’ve interviewed everything from a circus lion to an Eskimo chief, but when it comes down to being the original dummy, Tom Longboat is it. Interviewing a Chinese Joss or a mooley cow is plo compared to the task of digging anything out of Heap Big Chief T. Longboat.” [sic] But if Marsh had been able to see past his own racist stereotypes and his subject’s tendency toward self- deprecating understatement, Tom had indeed outlined his experience in the Canadian armed forces.2 Whereas most previous studies on Tom have understandably focused on his illustrious pre-war running career,3 a deeper examination of his life between 1916-19 indicates that the First World War had a more profound impact on his life and running career than previously understood. “Running” When the First World War began in 1914, Tom was entering the autumnal stages of his great career as a runner. He was still a strong athlete, but his most famous victories were behind him. Moreover, the pre-war depression reduced the amount of disposable income in the 1 Thanks to Daphne Tran for suggesting this topic to me and to Amy Stupavsky for encouraging me to write it.

    Girmay Birhanu Favoured at Scotiabank Ottawa Marathon by Paul Gains

    Girmay Birhanu Favoured at Scotiabank Ottawa Marathon by Paul Gains Three decades ago, the East African domination of marathon running began with both quality and quantity of great runners increasing exponentially. It can also be said they have shifted the goal posts when it comes to frequency of racing the ‘classic distance.’ When Ethiopia’s Girmay Birhanu lines up for the 2015 Scotiabank Ottawa Marathon May 24th - an IAAF Silver Label once again - it will be his fourth marathon in seven months. The astonishing rate would buckle the knees of most westerners but Birhanu serves up quality performances every time he races. With a personal best of 2:05:49 from the 2014 Dubai Marathon, where he placed 3rd, the now 28 year old has traveled the world seeking fast races and a pay cheque. Like many of his countrymen blessed with running talent, he intends to retire and start a business in a few years. On April 5th of this year, Birhanu won the Daegu Marathon in Korea with a time of 2:07:26, almost a minute ahead of his nearest rival. Lest one think that seven weeks between marathons is insane, we are reminded that a year ago Yemane Tsegaye came to Ottawa having won Daegu, then proceeded to smash the course and Canadian All- Comers’ record with a time of 2:06:54. “Yes I have recovered well and now started normal training,” Birhanu reports after being asked the obvious question. “Entoto, Sendafa, Sululta I like to train in all of those places. I am training with Gebretsadik Abraha (personal best of 2:06:21) and many other young athletes.

    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.

Explicit formulae for two practical cases are derived, and their applications are demonstrated using an example. c 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. Keywords: Sports; Records; Survival times; Non-homogeneous Poisson process 1. Introduction Let R¿0 and S¿0 be two random variables with respective distribution functions FR(:) and FS (:). Suppose R, the record in a given sport, is subject to set of events (attempts) S. Then the record breaks if the value of S exceeds (subceeds) R. The value of S is a function of the type of sport, number of participants, prize, training, environmental factors such as temperature, altitude, etc., and factors important to the athletes and the public. The value of R depends on factors such as the type and popularity of the sport, amount of rewards or prizes, number of formal competitions, etc. The probability of breaking a record is then ∞ P(S¿R)=p =1− FS (x)dFR(x); 0 where p is the probability of breaking a record in a single attempt.
