That is a bizarre differential for male/female times for Tokyo.
That is a bizarre differential for male/female times for Tokyo.
Good idea. I'll copy your list here and add to it. I'm pretty sure you have to pay an entry fee for the trails still if you don't get the A standard though:
US Olympic Trials (2020), guaranteed entry (free w/ A standard), US citizens only, 2:19 / 2:45
Amsterdam Marathon (2017), free entry: 2:30 / 2:50
Fukuoka International Marathon (2017), guaranteed entry, only for men: 2:35
Berlin Marathon (2018), guaranteed entry: 2:45 / 3:00
Tokyo Marathon (2018), "run-as-one" guaranteed entry, 2:45 / 3:30
NYC Marathon (2018), guaranteed entry, only times at NYRR races are "guaranteed", 2:53 / 3:13
Boston Marathon (2018), guaranteed entry, only fastest entrants (e.g. 2-3 minutes below standard): 3:05 / 3:35
London Marathon (2018), guaranteed entry, UK residents only: 3:05 / 3:45
Chicago Marathon (2018), guaranteed entry, 3:10 / 3:40
California International Marathon (2017): Women: sub 2:46 marathon or sub 1:18 half marathon, men: Men: sub 2:22
marathon or sub 1:07 half marathon for US marathon champs. Sub 2:30/1:10 for men or 2:55/1:22 for sub-elite (entry but
not travel, etc)
Indianapolis Monumental Marathon (2017): free entry, women sub 2:53/1:22, men not sure but something like sub 2:30/1:10
London guaranteed time is 245, 305 is the youngest "good for age" qualifying time

exactly you get a guaranteed entry with a 3;05
and if you're not old enough to qualify for GFA?
GFA 3:05 is 18-40 years old - the youngest age bracket. 2:45 is the championships start quali time.
Another faster time to note for NYCM would be the sub-elite start and treatment, which is supposed to be very good.
I think it is a 1:12 half for men, 2:3x marathon.
You actually have to pay an entry fee for the Olympic Trials. Just another reason I think I will do a different marathon rather than showing up again

Fyi there is no free entry to the trials. USATF squeezes it's elites for $30 whether you're Galen Rupp or the guy working part time at a shoe shop who snuck in at 2:18.
Glad were paying Max a million plus for his work.
Tokyo Run as One isn't guaranteed.
You have to run that fast to apply, you have to be a foreign runner, and then they take 150 males and 150 females. They officially don't have to take the fastest 150 either, but I believe they generally do. So if more than that number apply, you may not get in.
Does anybody know of NON marathon races with qualifying times?

Boston will not guarantee entry for running 2-3 minutes faster than a 3:05 or for running any number of minutes faster than a BQ, unless you are a subelite (~2;30).
Here's some more marathons:

Falmouth + Bay to Breakers + Bloomsday have elite & seeded (guaranteed) corrals. Probably a lot of bigger US road races have similar programs going on.
It would be good to keep the list going for local marathons where you can get comped entries.
Mohawk Hudson- 1:14/2:40, 1:22/3:00
Philadelphia Marathon- 24:30 (8k)/1:08/2:24, 28:00/1:20:00/2:49:00
(seeded- no comp- 28:00/1:15/2:40, 35:00/1:27/3:05)
Twin Cities- 2:25 (2:35 local), 2:49 (2:59 local)
Akron Marathon- 1:08-1:12/2:30-2:42, 1:20-1:24/2:53-3:05 (A + B Standards)
Steamtown- 1:10/2:30, 1:25/2:55
Wineglass- you email them
Houston- 1:13/2:30, 1:25/2:50 (sub elite program with comped entry)
Green Bay- 1:15/2:40, 1:25/3:00
Buffalo- 1:08/2:25, 1:22/2:55
For Most RNR Races- 1:11/2:27, 1:25/2:59
Eugene- 1:10/2:30, 1:25/3:00
Probably a lot more floating around out there that offer comped entries for sub elites. A couple of these races even had OTQ time bonuses which is awesome.

So Galen listed twice!
