World Masters Athletics
Marathon
Teams |
The
marathon has been a part of the modern Olympics since their
founding in 1896, although women were only allowed to
participate from 1984. The
distance did not become fixed until 1921, when the 42.195km
used at the 1908 Olympics was adopted as the official
standard. Prior to the this the distance varied from 40km to
42.75km.
The first three finishers per country
within each age group count towards the teams. The team
ranking is determined by the aggregate of the three times.
Where a country does not have three entrants within an age
group, they can opt to drop up to two competitors from older
age groups down to form complete teams. This cannot be done
if a complete team already exists. The decision to do this
must be logged by team managers prior to the race
(presumably to prevent strategic DNFs by competitors).
Prior to 1991, the teams format varied
with options such as points from sum of place, team numbers
of 2 or 5 or 10, composite age grades and could differ
between grades. It was even permitted to form multiple teams
per country in the early years.
Individual marathon results are
here.
The event will no
longer form a mandatory part of the event programme from
2018 on, being replaced by the half marathon. The WMA
Marathon Champs will be held as part of a standalone event
with no teams. |
