This study investigated the relationship between half-marathon race times and age in 1-year intervals by using the world singe age records in half-marathon running and the sex difference in performance from 5-91 years in men and 5-93 years in women. Wefounda 4 order-polynomial relationship between age and race time for both women and men. Women achieve their best half-marathon race time earlier in life than men, 23.89 years compared with 28.13, but when using a non-linear regression analysis, the age of the fastest race time does not differ between men and women with 26.62 years in women and 26.80 years in men. Moreover, women increase the sex difference in half-marathon running performance to men with advancing age.

    Media Advisory For Immediate Release Contact: Muffy King Houston Marathon Committee, Inc. 713.957.3453 [email protected] 2018 Press Conference Recap HOUSTON (January 12, 2018) – At the Chevron Houston Marathon and Aramco Houston Half Marathon on Sunday, the 11,037 in the marathon and 16,207 in the half marathon are expected to be greeted at the 7 a.m. start by a temperature of 36 degrees F (2 C), humidity of 60 percent, winds of 5 mph and a zero percent chance of humidity. “A day like Sunday is why fast runners come to Houston,” said Sarah Crouch, the top-seeded American woman in the marathon. “This is the kind of weather that is absolutely perfect.” And a race that is especially important this year, after Hurricane Harvey devastated parts of Houston in August. The boost to the city is coming “just at the right time,” said Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner in his remarks at the pre-race press conference Friday morning. With thousands of its citizens still trying to recover, he said, “you have to give everyone something to cheer about. This one is special.” “Somewhere in the neighborhood of 250,000 fans are expected to line the course,” said Wade Morehead, Houston Marathon Committee executive director, “cheering on runners who will help the Run for a Reason charity program hit $28 million in total funds raised since it began in 1995.” The races are the largest single-day sporting event in the city. Leading the Chevron Houston Marathon field, is returning 2017 champion Dominic Ondoro of Kenya will attempt to defend his title against two-time winner Bazu Worku of Ethiopia, whose 2:05:25 personal best is the fastest in the field.
