What is the Olympic A standard?
The A Standard is the "automatic" qualifying time for an event. The B Standard is the backup qualifying time. To be guaranteed a spot in an Olympic event, you must both earn a slot from your country (number of slots may vary by event and by country) and have achieved the A standard. If there are not enough participants around the world who have qualified that way, then competitors with B Standard times may be added to "make the event competitive."

There are several possible reasons as to why you might run better in the afternoon.
1. You may be glycogen depleted in the morning: Generally, upon waking up it's been the longest in the whole 24hr cycle since you've eaten. Even if you eat a good breakfast your body might not have time to break down all the complex carbohydrates before you begin racing. Try carb-loading the night before the race, or eating a breakfast with simple carbohydrates that are broken down quickly.
2. You might not be warming up enough: The morning is generally the coldest part of the day, and the longest time since you've done any activity. For all the metabolic, enzymatic, and circulatory pathways to be at optimum race performance your body has to warm up and get used to a little bit of exercise to snap it into performance mode. Try spending a little more time doing goal-pace warmups before you race.
3. whatever other reasons there are, I don't know or can't think of them right now... ask your coach

For the 26k trick for pvp does it need to be 26k cash?
you need a very good trusyworthy friend for this(non-members ver)
well what we did is we both had skulls over our head.
we both had 26k(or 75k either way).
first off he banked every thing and i only had rune scim.
i killed him first and my drop was rune legs 75k and junk(str pot(2)stew's cake's tuna's blah blah blah)
and then it was his turn, so on and so forth....
after about wasting 1m on this...i ended up only making about 200k so for me not really worth it
some times i only got drops very weak....such as tuna and stews mainly.
i think we got better drops when our ep was higher....im not too sure about the ep or what it does some people told me it was dp....(drop potential).
i did not see any difference if it was at 100% or 0%.
oh and one other thing the more often you die the less ep (dp) you get.
if your wondering where you and your friend can do this safely without pjers, we had this spot..
near lumbridge:there is a dungeon sign just a little bit north of the lumbridge guide, go down there and there should not be any one else...if there is they are probley just doing the 26k(or 75k) trick so there nothing to worry about.
i hope this helps and have fun good luck on your drop!!

How long dose it take to run a marathon?
This depends on if you are really walking the entire way or throwing in occasional running.
If you run a little, figure anywhere between 5 1/2 to 6 1/2 hours for a beginner. If you walk exclusively, expect 6 - 8 hours for a beginner. Note that you'd want to check the cut off times for races in big cities because they will usually open up the course for traffic in the 6 - 7 hour time frame. More experienced walkers can finish a marathon in the 5 1/2 to 6 hour range.
Anything faster than 5 1/2 hours would be considered competitive race walking speeds and is actually harder to maintain physically than running.
