You are reporting the following post to the moderators for review and possible removal from the forum Poster: rekrunner Subject: RE: If That Wasn't The Greatest Marathon Ever Run, What Was Body: According to this ARRS link, http://www.arrs.net/TB_Mara.htm average marathon biases are: +52.3 New York City (NY/USA) -1.1 Frankfurt (GER) -68.5 Berlin (GER) So New York is typically 52 seconds slow, while Berlin is 69 seconds fast, and Frankfurt (and Chicago -0.1) are fairly neutral. I haven't seen specific race time biases for these 2011 races, but assuming we can use the "average" race time biases: - The 2:03:38 in Berlin is only worth 2:04:46.5 - The 2:03:42 in Frankfurt is worth a 2:03:43.1 - A 2:05:06 performance in New York is worth a 2:04:13.7 This year's Boston advantage was computed to be -1:37 (?) this year, making a 2:03:02 worth 2:04:39. Sammy Wanjiru's Olympic performance of 2:06:32 was worth 2:04:00. This link http://www.arrs.net/AllTime/ATB_Mara.htm should be updated after the end of the year, and then we can see how all of the 2011 races compare, according to statistical calculations by the ARRS.
