  • TREVOR JACOBS– Ultra Insanity
    trevor 2/7/05 10:57 PM Page 1 Interview Trevor Jacobs – Ultra insanity By Daniel Green Name: Trevor Jacobs Date of Birth: One day in about 1951 Place of Birth: Bordertown, SA Sponsors: Huh? Oh yes – Qantas provided me with a half price ticket to Europe once which was gratefully appreciated. Currently Living: Yes! and in Canberra. Martial Status: Married to Josephine Occupation: Civil Engineer working in the water resource/environmental management field with the Murray- Darling Basin Commission. Height: 178cm Weight: 65kg Shoe Size: 10 Hair colour: Browny-greyish mix Favourite shoe colour: Anything really, except pink. They end up dirty looking pretty quickly anyway. Most loved pair of runners you have ever had: My first pair of runners (Asics Tiger) in 1981 as they felt really comfortable compared with the Dunlop Volleys I’d been using before that. Today, it’s Brooks Racer that I like best because they are comfortable, very durable and light so they are great for training as well as racing. Favourite race: I have so many favourite races that I generally follow a yearly cycle. Currently they include the 6 Foot Track, Canberra Marathon/50km, City to Surf, Oxfam Trailwalker, Brindabella Classic and various mountain races, together with a few rogaines and orienteering events. I like them all really! Today though, my favourite of the favourites would have to be the 6 Foot Track because it seems to suit me really well as I can finish close to the leaders more so than in any other race, giving a nice feeling. Super Sport Images Your top 3 running record with the numerically prefect time of Crackenback Challenges and on and on it experiences/performances: 3.33.33 in 1992.

  • Pacing in Time-Limited Ultramarathons from 6 to 24 Hours—The Aspects of Age, Sex and Performance Level
    Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2021 Pacing in Time-Limited Ultramarathons from 6 to 24 Hours—The Aspects of Age, Sex and Performance Level Deusch, Hagen ; Nikolaidis, Pantelis T ; Alvero-Cruz, José Ramón ; Rosemann, Thomas ; Knechtle, Beat Abstract: (1) Background: Compared with marathon races, pacing in time-limited ultramarathons has only been poorly discussed in the literature. The aim of the present study was to analyze the interaction of performance level, age and sex with pacing during 6 h, 12 h or 24 h time-limited ultramarathons. (2) Methods: Participants (n = 937, age 48.62 ± 11.80 years) were the finishers in 6 h (n = 40, 17 women and 23 men), 12 h (n = 232, 77 women and 155 men) and 24 h (n = 665, 166 women and 409 men) ultramarathons. The coefficient of variation (CV), calculated as SD/mean, was used to described pacing. Low scores of CV denoted a more even pacing, and vice versa. A two-way analysis of variance examined the main effects and interactions of sex and race duration on age, race speed and pacing. (3) Results: More men participated in the longer race distances than in the shorter ones and men were older and faster than women. Comparing the 6 h, 12 h and 24 h races, the finishers in the 6 h were the fastest, the finishers in the 12 h were the oldest and the finishers in the 24 h showed the most variablepacing. Furthermore, the faster running speed in the 12 h (women, r = −0.64; men, r = −0.49, p < 0.001) and the 24 h (r = −0.47 in women and men, p < 0.001) was related to less variable pacing.

  • Interview with Lizzy Kemp Salvato
    69 Appendix A Interview with Lizzy Kemp Salvato 1. What type of sport had you participated in before racewalking? I did not engage in sport or exercise aside from a few aerobic classes before starting racewalking. 2. What were your motives to begin racewalking? A friend invited me to come along with a group of racewalkers that met every Monday- Wednesday-Friday night and Sunday mornings in Balboa Park, San Diego, California. I wanted to lose weight and it turned into a social thing. My parents had just divorced and older siblings had moved out of the home, so I was at loose ends and this filled a void in my life. 3. Do you feel you had a natural talent for this sport? When I joined the group the other racewalkers told me that I should be good because I have long legs; they kept on saying “you’re going to be good at this,” and that positive feedback gave me the motivation to keep up with the sport. 4. You first joined a group of racewalkers, then trained by yourself; can you tell me about that experience? This was a group of about 5 or 6 men and another woman, all over the age of 40. When I trained on my own the first few times my shins burned so much I almost quit, but the social aspects of the group kept me going. I started for the exercises and stayed for the social group – these men and woman became my mentors. I could talk about my life and they would give me advice on how to change majors or drop a class or handle life in general.

And, as can be seen from the Geelong results, our guys and gals were right up there! Congratulations to Lee Troop, who was victorious in his last race hit-out before he contested the Paris Marathon on April 15th.
