Marathon

"The Wall" is the time during a marathon when a runner starts to run out of energy. Their pace slows, legs feel like they weigh a thousand pounds, they become light headed and/or their thinking becomes impaired. When these things happen, the marathoner is said to have 'hit the wall'.

The benefits of running the Reading Half Marathon are that one would get physical and mental energy. Also the price collected by the marathon is donated to charity.

Too Many.

It sold out on March 24 for the 2010 Chicago Marathon. Registration opened on 2-1-2011 for this year.

26.0 miles divided by 2 hours 12 minutes is a pace of 5.076 minutes per mile.

Depends if your name begins with 'A to M' or 'M to Q'.

'A to M' = Run

'M to Q' = Ran

Hope this helps! :D

There is no official term. The nearest you could get would be "bikeathon" and to be roughly equivalent to a marathon, it would need to be at least 100 miles or 160km.

A marathon is a running race, named after the distance reputedly run after a battle in ancient Greece to deliver a message to Athens that the battle at marathon (25 miles/40kms away) had been won. The race was introduced for the first time at the modern olympics and then standardised to 26 miles & 385 yards (42.195km) after 1921.

The term marathon is often misappropriated to uses other than running, to indicate anything long or demanding of endurance. All of these other uses, including biking, have no standard definition and are slang or common usages. A bike marathon has no official name because there is no bike marathon distance.

Registration for the ballot starts on 30 April

There is just one full marathon that consists of 26.2 miles. Due to the popularity of the race, the marathon has been spit into a half marathon and today many runners enjoy running half the distance 13.1 miles. The half marathon does not carry the same prestige of a marathon, and is often thought as a preparatory race for a marathon. I hope i have answered your question.

The distance is slightly over 26 miles/42km, the record time slightly over two hours, so the average speed is about 13mph or 21km/h.

Most steroids would have more of a benefit on a 100m sprinter than a marathon runner. Sprinting requires a lot of strength and speed, whereas endurance running requires more muscular endurance than pure strength. Look at pictures of top sprinters compared with elite marathoners to see this. However, steroids help with decreasing recovery time from hard training, which would benefit both groups of runners. HGH would also benefit both in a similar manner. While traditional anabolic steroids might favor sprinters, marathoners also have their own holy grail... EPO. EPO stimulates red blood cell production, which makes it the single most beneficial doping agent in an endurance athletes arsenal. Other drugs act in this manner, such as CERA and Hematide. But as the old saying goes, it is the magician, not the wand that counts. All the steroids in the world will only go so far without the genetic makeup of an elite athlete and years of dedicated training.

The length of a marathon was at first not fixed, since all that was important was that all athletes competed on the same course. The exact length of an Olympic marathon varied depending on the route established for each venue.

The choice of distance was somewhat arbitrary. The first modern Olympics in 1896 had a marathon distance of 40 km. The starting point for the 1908 Olympic marathon in London was modified so that the Royal Family could have a good view and the length happened to be 42.195 km (26 miles 385 yards). For the next Olympics in 1912, the length was changed to 40.2 km and changed again to 42.75 km for the 1920 Olympics. Of the first 7 Olympic games, there were 6 different marathon distances between 40 and 42.75 km (40 km being used twice).

A fixed distance of 42.195 km was adopted in 1921 by the International Amateur Athletic Federation (IAAF) as the official marathon distance.

The average speed is (approximately) 11.9 mph.

Therefore, the maximum speed is greater than 11 mph.

If we assume that the runner was stopped at the beginning and at the end of the race,

then she (or he) must have been going 11 mph. at least twice,

once when accelerating from 0 to 11 mph., and again when slowing down.

Since many marathons feature a mass start,

and the runner may well have run past the finish line,

this answer may be true only in theory.

"Things that work in theory don't necessarily work in practice; and

things that work in practice don't always work in the game."

It's called the New York City Marathon. "For sponsorship reasons," it's called the ING New York City Marathon.

You should be able to jog / walk a marathon if you have no major medical problems ..... running one or finishing in any kind of decent time would require lots of training unless you are already a marathon conditioned athlete.
