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.
