She’s a newcomer to triathlon, after being inspired on the sidelines of the 2014 Ironman World Championship when watching partner Damien Collins race. She had previously competed in powerlifting, where she competed at the GPC national titles and finished second in the under-60kg category. “I remember walking around the expo in Kona when Damo said to me, ‘Ash, what are you doing?

  • 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.
