Siyini Isikhathi Esimaphakathi SeMarathon?
-Delile
Umgijimi uMolly Seidel usanda kuphumelela kuma-Olympics e-Tokyo 2020 ngenkathi egijima umjaho wakhe wokuqala njalo! Uqede ibanga le-marathon kuma-Olympic Trials e-Atlanta ngamahora ama-2 imizuzu engama-27 nemizuzwana engama-31, okusho ukuthi ulinganise ijubane lemizuzu emi-5: 38. Khombisa ukwehla komhlathi okuhlangene. (Okwengeziwe ngalokho: Lo Mgijimi Ufanelekele Ama-Olympics Ngemva Kokuqeda I-Marathon Yakhe Yokuqala *Ever*)
Ngokusobala isikhathi sikaSeidel siyinto engavamile kuntombi nto ye-marathon. Ukuze azitholele indawo kuma-Olimpiki, uSeidel (ongumgijimi ophambili) bekufanele aqede kahle ngaphansi kwesikhathi esimaphakathi semarathon ephelele. Ufanelekele ukuvivinywa kwama-Olimpiki emjahweni ngaphambili uhhafu Isikhathi se-marathon sika-1: 10: 27, wabe esethola indawo eyodwa kwezintathu kuma-Olimpiki ngokuqeda isibili ekuhlolweni. Yebo, othile ugijime isifundo Ngokushesha namanje.
Uma lokho kuzwakala kushesha ngobuhlanya, kunjalo.
Umgijimi ojwayelekile wokuzilibazisa we-marathon wabesifazane uqeda cishe kabili isikhathi uSeidel asithathe ukuqeda ezilingweni, ngokusho kwedatha eqoqwe ku-RunRepeat ne-World Athletics (phambilini eyayiyi-International Association of Athletics Federations). Embikweni wayo wokuqala wedatha yokugijima, iThe State of Running 2019, iRunRepeat ithathe kwimiphumela yomjaho engaphezu kwezigidi eziyi-107 evela emhlabeni wonke phakathi kuka-1986 no-2018. Bekubandakanya abagijimi bezokungcebeleka kuphela, beshiya noma imiphi imiphumela kubasubathi abasezingeni eliphezulu, ukugwema ukubamba izinombolo . Imiphumela? Isikhathi esimaphakathi semarathon emhlabeni wonke ngo-2018 besingu-4:32:29. Ukukucacisa lokho, ngo-2018 isilinganiso sesikhathi somjaho wabesilisa sasingu-4:52:18 futhi isikhathi esimaphakathi somjaho wabesifazane ngalowo nyaka sasingu-4:48:45.
Ngandlela-thile, naphezu kwalezo zibalo ezimangalisayo, ngokombiko, abagijimi empeleni abakaze babe khona Kancane. Igrafu yomugqa ibonisa ukuthi isikhathi esimaphakathi semarathoni besilokhu sithrenda phezulu kusukela ngo-1986 lapho bekungu-3:52:35.

Uma unesithakazelo ekubukeni okuncane kakhulu ukuthi abantu abaningi basebenza ngokushesha kangakanani, lo mbiko uphinde uqhathanise ijubane elijwayelekile, noma kuthatha isikhathi esingakanani ukuqhuba imayela elinikeziwe. Ijubane elijwayelekile labesilisa lomjaho ogcwele lalingu-6:43 ikhilomitha (cishe u-10:48 ngemayela) kanti isilinganiso sabesifazane sasingu-7:26 (11:57 ngemayela). Kuyashesha!
Ukuqhathanisa, ngokusho kukaStrava's 2018 Year In Sport, isilinganiso semayela labagijimi abasebenzisa uhlelo lwayo ngo-2018 lalingu-9: 48, nesilinganiso esingu-10: 40 sabesifazane nesilinganiso esingu-9: 15 sabesilisa. Lokho okutholakele kucabangela ukugijima kwazo zonke izikhathi ezilayishwe abasaqalayo kubagijimi abathuthukile.
I-RunRepeat's State of Running, ephinde yafaka izibalo ezisuka ku-5Ks, 10Ks, nama-half-marathon, inikeza ukuqonda okuthakazelisayo okungaphezu kwezikhathi zokuqeda ezimaphakathi. Ngo-2018, kwakukhona abagijimi besifazane abaningi kunababagijimi besilisa okokuqala ngqa emlandweni – amaphesenti angama-50.24 abagijimi, ukuze babe ngqo.

Enye i-tidbit ethokozisayo: Izizathu zabantu zokubhalisela izinhlanga kungenzeka zishintshe. Encwadini efingqa lokho okutholakele, umcwaningi ophambili uJens Jakob Andersen uphawule ukuthi izikhathi zokuqeda ziya kancane, abantu abahambela ukuya emijahweni banyukile, futhi bambalwa abantu abagijima imijaho ngezinsuku zokuzalwa eziyingqophamlando. Ngokubambisana, lezi zinto zingaphakamisa ukusuka ekugijimeleni ukuncintisana / ukufezekisa kungenelwe ukusebenzela ulwazi, kubhala u-Andersen.

Ukugijima imarathon (heck, ukuqeqeshela eyodwa kuphela!) Kuyamangaza kungakhathalekile ukuthi ulinganisa kanjani isilinganiso semarathon yesikhathi. Umgijimi ojwayelekile wemarathon angase aqede ngo-4:32:29, kodwa umuntu ovamile ngeke aze aphuphe ngisho nokugijima amamayela angu-26.2—khumbula ukuthi ngokuzayo lapho uzithola udumazekile ngezinombolo eziku-smartwatch sakho.
