| Summary: | In physical exercise, studying the incentives involved when a subject is developing
within their activity has become one of the key concerns of sport and exercise psychology. The
aim was to establish the predictive effects of some training habits upon the reasons for
participating in route races. 1795 long-distance runners took part (1105 Spanish, 690 Mexicans).
Of these, 85.65% were men with an average age of M = 38.98 (DT = 10.45), and 14.35% were
women, with an average age of M = 37.88 (DT = 9.80). Data were collected via Spanish language
adaptations of Motivations of Marathoners Scales-34 (MOMS-34) and several questions about
training habits of the runners. In the early heyday of jogging, participating in marathons was
more challenge, recognition, etc., and, over time, as has been popularized by the results
obtained in this investigation, we conclude that every time more runners do to improve your
self-esteem, health and give meaning to your life, especially in women. Women, for their training
habits, seem to face the challenge of preparing for a marathon with more commitment and
responsibility than men. Moreover, we obtained seven strong predictive models of the
motivations of the runners that show that, although men and women run with similar
motivations, these can be predicted by many different variables, hence it is absolutely necessary
to always analyze this population by sex. |
