Words of greeting from<br />

Hiroaki Chosa, President of <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

Dear friends,<br />

On the 25 th anniversary of <strong>AIMS</strong> I am pleased to<br />

express my most hearty congratulations to each and<br />

every member of our Association. <strong>AIMS</strong> was launched<br />

in <strong>1982</strong> with only 28 members. Today there are more<br />

than 235 races in over80 countries and territories.<br />

Ageing is becoming a big issue in many countries. To<br />

address this, governments focus on methods of<br />

prevention rather than medical treatment of illnesses.<br />

Running has been regarded as foremost among these.<br />

It is an important aerobic exercise, which yields<br />

consistent health improvements. Running tourism is<br />

another strongly emerging trend. Today there are<br />

more and more ‘global runners’ who love running in<br />

different countries. As a result of these developments<br />

we are again experiencing a running boom.<br />

Running has become very popular not only in<br />

Europe and the USA but also in South America,<br />

Africa and Asia. It is beginning to spread very much<br />

further around the world than has ever previously<br />

been the case. At this time, we should remember<br />

the founders of modern city marathons. These<br />

4<br />

25 YEARS OF <strong>AIMS</strong> <strong>1982</strong> TO <strong>2007</strong><br />

included Fred Lebow of New York, Will Cloney of<br />

Boston and Chris Brasher of London who also took<br />

the initiative in forming <strong>AIMS</strong>. Without their<br />

leadership and wisdom, we would not be where we<br />

are and what we are today. I take this opportunity to<br />

express our sincere respect for these leading figures<br />

of the running movement.<br />

We will never forget the philosophy of our founders,<br />

but we will be active in pursuing new directions<br />

required by the running movement. In cooperation<br />

with the International Association of Athletics<br />

Federations (IAAF) we will take a leading role in<br />

promoting running throughout the world, to meet<br />

the challenge of the next 25 years.<br />

We appreciate your continuous support for <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

and we wish great success to all our <strong>AIMS</strong> members.<br />

Thank you.<br />

Hiroaki Chosa


<strong>1982</strong> TO <strong>2007</strong> 25 YEARS OF <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

Words of greeting from<br />

Lamine Diack, President of IAAF<br />

Dear friends,<br />

IAAF, as a close partner of <strong>AIMS</strong>, is delighted to note<br />

the impressive growth in road running in every part<br />

of the world. More and more citizens are realising<br />

the wonderful benefits that come from running, not<br />

only in terms of health but also in the sense of<br />

personal well being and “belonging”. City administrations,<br />

local sports federations and sports clubs,<br />

and individual promoters have also recognised that<br />

road races, and especially the big city marathons,<br />

offer tremendous opportunities not only in terms of<br />

health benefits but also as ways to attract tourism.<br />

The biggest marathons are also incredible charity<br />

fund raisers. Between them, they have raised<br />

hundreds of millions of dollars for humanitarian<br />

causes and community services.<br />

In short, I believe that road running and the road<br />

race community as represented by <strong>AIMS</strong> is nothing<br />

less than a social phenomenon and I am determined<br />

that IAAF will work increasingly closely with the<br />

road running world over the coming years.<br />

Because of the increasing desire by IAAF to<br />

become more closely involved in the world of<br />

road running, it was agreed that a new IAAF Road<br />

Running Commission should be created, consisting<br />

initially of the members of an existing road running<br />

working group, including myself and other IAAF<br />

representatives but also the President of <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

and the race directors of the London and New<br />

York City marathons.<br />

This formalisation of the partnership between IAAF<br />

and the road running community is just the start of<br />

what I believe will be a new era in co-operation.<br />

Lamine Diack<br />

The birth<br />

of a movement<br />

Boston Marathon in the 1980s.<br />

BY ANDY GALLOWAY AND DAVID MARTIN<br />

T<br />

he Association of International<br />

Marathons (<strong>AIMS</strong>)<br />

was officially founded<br />

during the first Congress<br />

of <strong>AIMS</strong>, later recognised<br />

as “the Establishing Congress”,<br />

which took place<br />

in London’s Park Lane<br />

Hotel on 6 <strong>–</strong> 7 May <strong>1982</strong>. The idea of<br />

such an association had been<br />

developed earlier. At the London<br />

Congress William Cloney of the<br />

Boston Marathon was elected as the<br />

first president. Then, as well as<br />

today, the objectives of <strong>AIMS</strong> were:<br />

• To foster and promote running<br />

throughout the world.<br />

• To work with IAAF on all matters<br />

relating to international Marathons.<br />

• To exchange information, knowledge<br />

and expertise among members<br />

of the Association.<br />

The success of <strong>AIMS</strong> can be attributed<br />

to following these three<br />

basic principles.<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong> was born as a concept some time<br />

before it adopted the name. At a meeting of<br />

international marathon race directors an<br />

alliance known as the ‘International Marathon<br />

Race Directors’ (IMRD) was formed. That had<br />

happened back at a meeting held on 11 <strong>–</strong> 12<br />

December 1980 at the Princess Kaiulani Hotel in<br />

Honolulu. Another meeting of this group<br />

followed in New York in October 1981. It did not<br />

take much longer before <strong>AIMS</strong> was officially<br />

established. At the Honolulu Marathon on 10 <strong>–</strong><br />

11 December 1981, a meeting of race directors of<br />

various marathons who were present was called<br />

to consider forming an association to further<br />

the idea of Montreal Marathon Race Director,<br />

Serge Arsenault, to establish a ‘World Circuit’ of<br />

Marathons. Serge’s idea was that these events<br />

would be drawn from five geographical regions:<br />

The Americas, Africa, Asia-Oceania and Europe<br />

(divided into two zones). Top runners would<br />

compete in three marathons each year over a<br />

two-year period so that they would over that<br />

time race in all zones. They would be awarded<br />

points according to their time and placing and<br />

an overall male and female World Marathon<br />

Champion would be decided, with appropriate<br />

rewards at the end of every second year.


25 YEARS OF <strong>AIMS</strong> <strong>1982</strong> TO 1984<br />

Those attending that meeting at Honolulu’s<br />

Surfrider Hotel were:<br />

Serge Arsenault (Montreal Marathon), David<br />

Benson (Honolulu Marathon), Will Cloney (Boston<br />

Marathon), Fred Lebow (New York City Marathon),<br />

Chris Brasher (London Marathon), Anders Olsson<br />

(Stockholm Marathon), Vince Regan (Pony British<br />

Marathon Manchester), Jack Waitz (Oslo Marathon),<br />

David Martin (Atlanta Marathon), Pros<br />

Slachmuylders (Antwerp Marathon), Michel Lukkien<br />

Rutherford (Christchurch Marathon, New Zealand),<br />

Ian Gamble, Pat Munro (Auckland, New Zealand) and<br />

Andy Galloway.<br />

Galloway, who was to become General<br />

Secretary of <strong>AIMS</strong>, was the race director of the<br />

Hamilton Marathon in New Zealand. He was asked to<br />

attend and act as mediator between Christchurch<br />

and Auckland who were in dispute, both wanting the<br />

same date for their events.<br />

At that initial meeting, a steering committee<br />

was formed to look at the feasibility of a “World<br />

Circuit”. Much correspondence took place over the<br />

ensuing months, but the idea was eventually<br />

dropped. It is interesting to see that today this idea<br />

has been resurrected in the joint “World Marathon<br />

Majors” initiative between London, New York,<br />

Chicago, Boston and Berlin.<br />

In Honolulu participants had already agreed on<br />

many points that formed the basis for the future


<strong>1982</strong> TO 1984 25 YEARS OF <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

association. Boston’s Will Cloney was the moderator<br />

in Honolulu. In the minutes of this meeting it is<br />

noted that the name should be “the Association of<br />

International Marathons”. <strong>AIMS</strong> was to consist of<br />

events of the standard marathon distance (42.195km<br />

or 26 miles and 385 yards). An ‘international<br />

marathon’ was described as a race which had at<br />

least one runner from a country other than the<br />

marathon’s host country.<br />

New York’s race director Fred Lebow argued<br />

that other kinds of events could be included later.<br />

The structure of the organisation was discussed in<br />

Honolulu. The steering committee was to become<br />

the future Board of Directors. Initial membership fees<br />

were set at $1000 for full members and $500 for<br />

associate members. Annual dues after that were half<br />

of these fees. Individual membership was $100. It was<br />

agreed that the Association would be non-profit and<br />

that <strong>AIMS</strong>’ first annual organisational meeting would<br />

be held in London in May of the following year.<br />

In between the meetings in Honolulu and<br />

London there was an ad-hoc meeting on 20 April<br />

<strong>1982</strong>, in conjunction with the Boston Marathon. In<br />

the meantime the Articles of Association of <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

were prepared for the meeting in London held in the<br />

Park Lane Hotel on 6 <strong>–</strong> 7 May <strong>1982</strong>.<br />

Those present at what was referred to as the<br />

‘First Congress of <strong>AIMS</strong>’ were:<br />

David Benson (Honolulu Marathon),<br />

Tsunemichi Nishima (Tokyo Int’l Women’s<br />

Marathon), Ted Paulin (Big M Melbourne Marathon),<br />

David Saidi (Tel Aviv Marathon), John Drew (Nike<br />

Christchurch Marathon), Rick Panell (Australia<br />

Marathon Championship), Bob Bright (America’s<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong> <strong>–</strong> THEN, NOW AND THE FUTURE<br />

THEN: <strong>AIMS</strong> was set up in <strong>1982</strong> to foster and promote road running<br />

throughout the world. The Association started with relatively few<br />

members. Most races had little or no interest in the participation of<br />

foreign runners outside of the top elite competitors. There was no global<br />

communication system for race directors and no international magazine<br />

promoting the world’s marathons. Global running tourism was a<br />

relatively unknown concept.<br />

On the technical side there was no uniformly accepted system of<br />

measurement for races. Without prescribed rules for measurement<br />

runners could not be confident that races were of the advertised distance.<br />

There was no central source of information on good practice in the<br />

organisation of road races.<br />

A group of people <strong>–</strong> including visionaries like Fred Lebow, Will<br />

Cloney and Chris Brasher <strong>–</strong> addressed these issues by bringing race<br />

directors together to share experience and expertise. They explored their<br />

mutual interests in the promotion of marathon running throughout the<br />

world. The outcome was a concerted effort to encourage runners to<br />

participate in foreign races as a means of meeting new people and<br />

experiencing different cultures.<br />

NOW: <strong>AIMS</strong> now has 235 members in over 80 countries, covering every<br />

continent of the world. Foreign runners are recognised as an important<br />

group, participating in races throughout the world and bringing real<br />

diversity to races. Their participation has a significant economic impact,<br />

boosting the profile of the race and benefiting both the local and the<br />

national economy. Studies of some of the larger events have estimated<br />

such impacts at up to and above $100 million.<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong> has created the world’s only truly global running publication,<br />

Distance Running. This full-colour magazine is published quarterly and<br />

targeted to runners through <strong>AIMS</strong> member races. Each year around<br />

400,000 runners receive the magazine free of charge in this way.<br />

Newsletters sent out to members are produced ten times yearly, allowing<br />

race organisers to remain in touch with developments elsewhere.<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong> member races provide expo space for the use of fellow<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong> members in promoting their events. The <strong>AIMS</strong> calendar of races<br />

that is produced for Distance Running and displayed on the <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

website is also featured in many running magazines around the World.<br />

The <strong>AIMS</strong> website has a huge number of visitors each year.<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong> adopted and popularised the ‘calibrated bicycle’ method of<br />

measurement of road race courses that was later embraced by the IAAF<br />

as the international standard. <strong>AIMS</strong> has ensured that all <strong>AIMS</strong> member<br />

road races are measured to exacting standards so that runners have<br />

confidence when they run an <strong>AIMS</strong> race that it will be the right distance.<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong> has begun to establish an event management manual that will be<br />

a global template of good practice on how to manage a race.<br />

The fastest times in the world for the marathon for men and<br />

women are Paul Tergat’s 2:04:55 and Paula Radcliffe’s 2:15:25. These<br />

times are now registered as world records because <strong>AIMS</strong> pioneered the<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong>/Citizen World Fastest Times Award and then prepared and<br />

proposed the criteria for world records that were adopted by IAAF.<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong> Statistician David Martin has established a format for road<br />

race performance statistics throughout the world and created a 25-year<br />

record of global running performance that catalogues the development<br />

and progress of performance within the sport.<br />

IAAF recognises the leading role played by <strong>AIMS</strong> in developing a<br />

standard method of measurement and in managing its implementation.<br />

IAAF recognises that <strong>AIMS</strong> has created the major global communication<br />

medium for the sport of road running and as a result has become a<br />

partner in the publication Distance Running. <strong>AIMS</strong> is represented on the<br />

IAAF Road Running Commission, dealing with important issues<br />

concerning the development of the sport and ensuring <strong>AIMS</strong> member<br />

races have a voice in policy matters concerning their sport.<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong> has set up children’s races in Africa and Asia in partnership<br />

with member races in order to encourage the next generation of runners<br />

at all levels of abilities to enjoy the positive self esteem and health<br />

benefits that a life of sport and good health can bring.<br />

AND INTO THE FUTURE: <strong>AIMS</strong> confidently expects continued growth.<br />

Before long <strong>AIMS</strong> will embrace over 300 races around the world.<br />

Particularly strong growth is expected in geographic regions where<br />

running had not previously enjoyed great popularity, such as the Middle<br />

East, India, and China.<br />

To support the swelling popularity of organised running events<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong> will further develop its website-based advice so that it becomes<br />

recognised as the definitive instruction manual of race organisation.<br />

An information and research arm will be established to gather<br />

information and highlight good practice in order to assist road races to<br />

improve and innovate. The resulting information will be used in updating the<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong> event management manual. <strong>AIMS</strong> will continue to develop an email<br />

database of runners for promoting member races and the sport as a whole.<br />

Various particular aspects of participation will demand detailed<br />

study, including the economic and touristic impact of road races and a<br />

demographic analysis of road running. Further investment will be made<br />

in the development of the next generation of road running talent in<br />

developing nations. Participation of women in road races will be studied<br />

in order to increase the number of women involved in the sport. <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

will act as a channel through which cultural diversity can be promoted<br />

and prejudice opposed. <strong>AIMS</strong> will promote running as a positive force<br />

in addressing the problem of obesity that besets the populations of<br />

many countries.<br />

WILL CLONEY<br />

■<br />

The first President of <strong>AIMS</strong>, Will Cloney, was race director of the Boston Marathon from 1947<br />

<strong>–</strong> <strong>1982</strong> and President of the Boston Athletic Association from 1964 <strong>–</strong> <strong>1982</strong>.<br />

He attended Harvard University from 1933 and became professor of English and journalism<br />

at Boston’s Northeastern University from 1937<strong>–</strong>1953, spanning four years of military service in the<br />

Second World War. He was a sportswriter for the Boston Globe from 1930 <strong>–</strong> 1953, followed by three<br />

years with the Boston Post.<br />

He directed the Boston Marathon for 36 years, guiding the event during the popularisation<br />

of the marathon in the late 1960s, and the institution of qualifying times in the 1970s, right through<br />

to the running boom of the late 1970s. In his first year in charge there were 184 runners; by the<br />

last this had grown to 7,647. Married in 1937, he had four children. He died on 16 January 2003<br />

at the age of 91.<br />

Those attending formalised proceedings by<br />

electing the following and drawing up some brief<br />

objectives and rules.<br />

Will Cloney (Boston) was elected as President,<br />

Chris Brasher (London) as Vice-President, Andy<br />

Galloway (Hamilton, NZ) as Secretary/Treasurer and<br />

a Committee of: Hiroaki Chosa (Fukuoka), Serge<br />

Arsenault (Montreal), George Courmouzis (Athens),<br />

Kathrine Switzer (Avon), David Benson (Honolulu),<br />

Anders Olsson (Stockholm), Elpidio Dorotheo<br />

(Manila) plus Jose Werneck (Rio de Janeiro). Vince<br />

Regan (Manchester) was appointed as press officer.<br />

The idea was that within the committee each part of<br />

the world was represented.<br />

Rules and regulations were laid down and <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

began, initially as The Association of International<br />

Marathons, but later extended to include other<br />

road race distances. It was decided that ‘annual’<br />

meetings would be held approximately every<br />

eighteen months to coincide with a member’s<br />

marathon at that time and give a spread of meetings<br />

geographically. It was also decided that any elected<br />

president could serve a maximum of three<br />

consecutive terms.<br />

At the following <strong>AIMS</strong> Board Meetings there<br />

were further discussions concerning a ‘Marathon<br />

World Circuit’ which would be generated for elite<br />

runners. More general discussions about prize and<br />

appearance money at races also interested the<br />

Board. Meeting in Montreal in May <strong>1982</strong> all<br />

representatives voted for prize money and all voted<br />

against appearance money. This would not work<br />

today for big elite races -<strong>–</strong> but 25 years ago times<br />

were different.<br />

Race directors considered it crucial that all of<br />

their courses should be up to high standards of<br />

operation: correctly measured, with proper medical<br />

support; adequate energy drinks at feeding stations;<br />

marshals at key points<br />

along the course to<br />

direct runners and<br />

traffic; and accurate<br />

split times and finish<br />

times for every<br />

participating runner.<br />

Allan Steinfeld was the<br />

early Chair of the <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

Standards Committee,<br />

and he worked strenuously<br />

to help race<br />

directors learn the<br />

technical nuances of<br />

producing a good race.<br />

David Martin, <strong>AIMS</strong>’<br />

statistician, worked<br />

hard to produce lists<br />

that had names spelled<br />

correctly, correct times<br />

(rounded appropriately)<br />

and information presented<br />

to help journalists<br />

to interpret “the marathon<br />

phenomenon”.<br />

During the period<br />

from the foundation of<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong> to the first<br />

edition of the <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

Yearbook in 1985, the<br />

General Secretary<br />

issued monthly newsletters<br />

to members,<br />

keeping them informed<br />

and up-to-date with<br />

any relevant business and informing members of the<br />

results of <strong>AIMS</strong> events as they took place. The first<br />

newsletter does not carry a date but it probably<br />

Fred Lebow expanded the New York City Marathon from a small event held entirely within Central<br />

Park to its present city-wide version with hordes of spectators cheering on more than 35,000 runners. Father<br />

of the marathon, he conceived, conducted, directed and sponsored the first race with just 127 runners<br />

<strong>–</strong> of whom 55 finished, including Fred himself. He personally bought wrist watches as prizes for the<br />

first ten finishers.<br />

Lebow also started such original events as the Fifth Avenue Mile and the Empire State Building Run-Up. He developed the New York<br />

Road Runners Club from 270 members in 1972 into the largest organisation of its kind in the world. Today the club organises more than 100 events<br />

annually. Fred Lebow, born in Romania as Fischel Leibowitz, spent time in Ireland, Czechoslovakia and other European countries before moving to<br />

the US. After settling in New York, he made a successful career in the clothing industry before he started working full-time for the NYRRC.<br />

In 1992 Lebow ran his only five-borough marathon in New York together with Grete Waitz to celebrate his 60th birthday and the remission<br />

of his cancer. But less than two years later he died of brain cancer on 9 October 1994 at the age of 62.<br />

keep everyone abreast of what’s happening in<br />

the world of marathon running’, it states in the<br />

first two lines. The newsletter is jointly signed<br />

by Chris Brasher and Fred Lebow. And there is<br />

a note below: ‘Perhaps equally important,<br />

please send at least 50 copies of your entry<br />

blanks, and a set or two of results, to Deb<br />

Greene at the <strong>AIMS</strong> clearing house. She answers<br />

between two dozen and four dozen requests<br />

each week from people seeking entry blanks for<br />

international marathons.’ This was great news<br />

for <strong>AIMS</strong>: it showed that the idea was working.<br />

Growth of membership was slow but steady<br />

with more and more races coming to recognise<br />

the importance and benefits of belonging to this<br />

new organisation which stressed the<br />

importance of the marathon as a public event<br />

which allowed runners of all abilities to<br />

compete and set their own goals.<br />

At the first “World Congress of <strong>AIMS</strong>”, held<br />

in Tokyo from 8 <strong>–</strong> 10 February 1983, Will Cloney<br />

stepped down and a new president had to be<br />

elected. The founder of the London Marathon Chris<br />

Brasher then became <strong>AIMS</strong>’ second president.<br />

Among elite performances at that time<br />

Steve Jones (Great Britain) achieved a world<br />

best of 2:08:05 when winning the Chicago<br />

Marathon in 1984. He improved the mark of Robert<br />

de Castella (Australia) by 13 seconds. A year earlier<br />

there had been two women’s world records on<br />

consecutive days. Running legend Grete Waitz<br />

(Norway), who won the New York City Marathon<br />

nine times, took the London Marathon with 2:25:29.<br />

A day later, in the Boston Marathon on 18 April 1983,<br />

Joan Benoit improved that time by nearly three<br />

minutes to 2:22:43. There was more glory for Joan<br />

ever female Olympic Marathon Champion. She won<br />

the gold medal in Los Angeles with 2:24:52 while<br />

Carlos Lopes (Portugal) took the men’s race in<br />

2:09:21. A year earlier at the inaugural World<br />

Championships in Helsinki Rob de Castella (2:10:03)<br />

and Grete Waitz (2:28:09) had won gold.<br />

Born in British Guiana in 1928 and educated at Rugby School and Cambridge University, Chris<br />

Brasher discovered a love of the adventurous outdoors early in life. Before the age of 22 he had<br />

participated in two Arctic expeditions. He was introduced to serious athletics at University and quickly<br />

made an impression, competing in the 1952 Helsinki Olympics before famously helping to pace Roger<br />

Bannister to the first sub four-minute mile in 1954. In the 1956 Melbourne Olympics he lined up only<br />

as Britain’s third-choice steeplechaser but against all expectations <strong>–</strong> except perhaps his own <strong>–</strong> he won<br />

gold in 8:41.2.<br />

A successful career in journalism and broadcasting followed. He was twice voted British Sportswriter<br />

of the Year. A business based on selling orienteering gear from the boots of cars led to the opening<br />

of the first “Sweat Shop” retail outlet. This has since become a chain of shops managed by his son, Hugh.<br />

He also set up a sports shoe distribution company called Fleetfoot. In 1979, with ten fellow Ranelagh Harrier<br />

club members on the “Sweat Shop” tour to the New York Marathon, Chris Brasher was inspired to wonder whether London could organise<br />

a similar event. Only a man of Chris’s vision and determination could have brought the dream to fruition a mere 18 months later. In doing so he<br />

did not forget his friends, and many Ranelagh Harriers helped in small ways in that first event, and many continued to volunteer for years to<br />

come; others took full-time jobs with the Marathon. Chris himself, at the age of 52, ran 2:56:56 in the inaugural London Marathon. This race is his<br />

greatest legacy.<br />

Chris Brasher, who was <strong>AIMS</strong>’ President from 1983 <strong>–</strong> 1987, died of cancer on 28 February 2003 at the age of 74. With his wife Shirley<br />

he had three children: Kate, Amanda and Hugh.<br />

25 YEARS OF <strong>AIMS</strong> <strong>1982</strong> TO 1984<br />

The development of<br />

road race measurement<br />

In the dark ages of road running B.A. (before<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong>), road-running courses were measured<br />

using car odometers, theodolites, measuring<br />

wheels, bikes, measuring tapes and any other<br />

method that was handy. Most running courses are<br />

not alike due to elevation changes, road surface<br />

and many other factors, but there is one constant:<br />

all marathons are 42.195km. When a runner ran a<br />

race there was no guarantee that the course was<br />

really the distance that was advertised. If a way<br />

could be found to measure the route quickly and<br />

inexpensively that would help our sport greatly.<br />

Back in B.A. times, some countries around the<br />

world did an excellent job of measuring their road<br />

running courses. but it could be expensive and time<br />

consuming. In Japan, for example, they would use a<br />

100 meter steel tape and a couple of dozen<br />

‘volunteers’ to assist in the measuring. They would<br />

stretch out the tape, and in order to ensure that it<br />

was straight and 1 meter from the curb at all points<br />

(the old rules), people would hold meter sticks<br />

BY ALLAN STEINFELD<br />

■<br />

The man who above all others had laid the foundations for modern course measurement<br />

was John Jewell. He was the driving force behind a two-year investigation into the various<br />

methods of measuring road race courses, and it was he who first adapted the British cyclists’<br />

calibrated bicycle method for use in measuring road running courses. In 1960 he produced a report<br />

which recommended its use, but he always maintained that producing the report was the easy part.<br />

Lobbying the British Federation and the IAAF to accept this method took a long and determined<br />

effort.<br />

He got to the heart of the problem. The last 45 years have seen only minor tinkering with<br />

his basic procedure. In his 1961 summary, John Jewell wrote: “…The surveyor’s wheel is not a<br />

precision instrument [and] there will always be doubts regarding the distance of courses measured<br />

with [it]. The best method is the calibrated cycle wheel as used by the RTTC. It is extremely accurate<br />

and rapid. Far greater use might be made of maps… Car odometers are not suitable for course<br />

measurements… Other unsuitable methods have also been mentioned.”<br />

John Jewell began running in his teens, but his running career really started when he was<br />

a student at Imperial College in London. He was a friend of the renowned ultradistance runner Arthur<br />

Newton, and became member no.7 of the Road Runner’s Club. He was also a member of the<br />

famous South London Harriers running club. John Jewell edited the Road Runner’s Club Newsletter<br />

from the early 1950s. His editorship was renowned for its excellent coverage of the world distance<br />

running scene. Primarily because of the Newsletter, the British RRC had members throughout the<br />

world. In 1962 John married his wife Joan. John had a scientific background, as a chemist in the oil<br />

industry. His scientific interest was aroused by the question of measuring road race courses. He<br />

provided a clear method, based on counting the number of revolutions (and fractions of a revolution)<br />

of a bicycle wheel needed to cover the course. The wheel was first calibrated on a 1km section of<br />

the course to be measured, that section itself precisely measured with a steel tape. To illustrate the<br />

application of this method he undertook the first road race measurement to modern standards when<br />

he measured the Bristol Marathon in 1961. John Jewell retired as the editor of the RRC Newsletter<br />

in 1992. He died in August 2001.<br />

Andy Milroy with additional material from Mike Sandford<br />

and Jean-Francois Delasalle (Distance Running January <strong>–</strong> April 2002)<br />

perpendicular to the curb and touching the tape.<br />

They would repeat this exercise 422 times. Just<br />

imagine if the road being measured was not traffic<br />

free! Obviously there had to be a better way.<br />

Another system of measurement had been used<br />

by the British Time Trial Council, a cycling<br />

organisation. They counted the revolutions (and<br />

part-revolutions) of the bicycle wheel required to<br />

traverse a known accurately-measured base line,<br />

and then related this to the number of revolutions of<br />

the wheel taken in covering the entire time trial<br />

course. This was a highly accurate method of<br />

measuring popularised for road running by John<br />

Jewell of the Road Runners Club and Ted Corbitt of<br />

the Road Runners Club of America. However, it still<br />

involved the laborious procedure of counting spokes<br />

to determine part-revolutions of the wheel.<br />

In the early 1970s Alan Jones developed a simple<br />

mechanical counter that registered 20 “counts” for<br />

each revolution of the bicycle wheel, which greatly<br />

simplified the procedure and calculations.<br />

When a bicycle is ridden from one end of a<br />

calibration course to the other, the counter registers<br />

a number. As the length of the calibration course,<br />

previously accurately measured with a steel tape, is<br />

known the number on the Jones counter can be<br />

used to calculate a ratio relating the counts elapsed<br />

on the Jones counter to the distance travelled over<br />

the calibration course. One can then go out and<br />

measure any distance using this ratio and a simple<br />

linear equation.<br />

At the first meeting of <strong>AIMS</strong> (with an initial<br />

membership of 28 members) which took place in<br />

London in <strong>1982</strong>, we adopted the idea of course<br />

measurement using the calibrated bicycle method.<br />

We also adopted additional and more stringent<br />

criteria concerning the measurement of road courses.<br />

For a race course to be certified by <strong>AIMS</strong>, the course<br />

must be measured 30cm from the curb (no longer a<br />

meter). The measurements must be made along the<br />

SPR (shortest possible runners path), the course<br />

could not drop more than 0.1% between start and<br />

finish (42.195 m) and a short course prevention factor<br />

of 0.1% had to be added in to all measurements to<br />

make sure that courses were not short.<br />

Chris Brasher, the president of <strong>AIMS</strong> at the time,<br />

appointed me head of our just-created <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

technical committee (probably because no one else<br />

wanted the job and I was head of the U.S. road<br />

running technical committee). To help our members<br />

measure their courses accurately. I was asked to<br />

give clinics around the world in <strong>AIMS</strong> race cities. I<br />

gave them in New Zealand, Australia, Europe,<br />

helping out the London Marathon early on, and in<br />

South America. I travelled to Rio for the Rio de<br />

Janeiro Marathon for a clinic and to observe the<br />

actual measurement of their marathon. Because Rio<br />

is so congested with traffic the measurement took<br />

place at 02.00 and instead of police we had an armed<br />

military escort. Needless to say, no one got in our<br />

way. What I remember most about the measurement<br />

was that all the soccer fields were filled!<br />

We created a cadre of measurers and certifiers<br />

around the world and required all <strong>AIMS</strong> races<br />

to be officially certified for distance. Certified<br />

measurement of the course became one of the<br />

criteria for a race to join <strong>AIMS</strong>. In the foreword of the<br />

first edition of the <strong>AIMS</strong> Marathon Yearbook 1985,<br />

President Chris Brasher wrote: “You the runner,<br />

know that a Marathon is the ultimate test in the<br />

track and field calendar and if you are going to travel<br />

to a major race, you want to be certain that the<br />

course is measured accurately and that the<br />

organisation enables you to produce your best<br />

performance. That is what <strong>AIMS</strong> is all about”.<br />

And indeed this was only the beginning of what<br />

“<strong>AIMS</strong> was all about”. <strong>AIMS</strong> stood and still stands for<br />

a standard of excellence in the road running world.<br />

With the promulgation of course measuring taking<br />

place all over the world, local federations began to<br />

take notice. During<br />

this time in the mid-<br />

1980s Chris Brasher<br />

and I met with IAAF to<br />

discuss issues we had<br />

in common. One of<br />

those issues was<br />

course measurement.<br />

After a few discussions,<br />

IAAF adopted the <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

system of course<br />

measurement and<br />

enshrined it in their<br />

rule book.<br />

It took significantly<br />

longer for the<br />

method to be backed<br />

up with the administrative<br />

system required<br />

to oversee worldwide<br />

implementation. Work<br />

on this started in<br />

earnest when IAAF<br />

met with <strong>AIMS</strong> in<br />

Monaco in 1995. IAAF<br />

rement administrators in different parts of the world<br />

to accredit and oversee the work of measurers<br />

active in these areas. Since then, with a vast amount<br />

of work done by the current <strong>AIMS</strong> technical<br />

chairman Gordon Rogers, a comprehensive<br />

database has been established which allows the<br />

credentials of races all over the world to be reliably<br />

checked. Today all our <strong>AIMS</strong> members, the Olympics<br />

and World Championship marathons and race walks<br />

are proud holders of a course certification signed off<br />

by <strong>AIMS</strong> and IAAF.<br />

uring this period <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

worked successfully<br />

towards implementing<br />

its ideas and<br />

objectives for the<br />

organisation of road<br />

races according to<br />

worldwide standards.<br />

The ‘<strong>AIMS</strong> Marathon Yearbook’, from<br />

which Distance Running evolved,<br />

was introduced in 1985. With this<br />

publication it was now possible for<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong> to reach runners of its member<br />

races directly. High circulation made<br />

this a powerful advertising tool for<br />

the members of <strong>AIMS</strong>. Membership<br />

strongly increased in these years. In<br />

1987 it was decided that races<br />

covering less than the marathon<br />

distance would be able to join <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

and the name was changed to the<br />

Association of International<br />

Marathons and Road Races. In 1990<br />

ultradistance and Ekiden (marathon<br />

relay) events were also included.<br />

This period saw two changes in the<br />

presidency: first Chris Brasher was<br />

followed by Bob Dalgleish. Then,<br />

due to the sad death of the Scotsman,<br />

Hiroaki Chosa was appointed<br />

interim president.<br />

The first edition of the <strong>AIMS</strong> Marathon<br />

Yearbook in 1985, and many editions following ,<br />

stated the objectives of <strong>AIMS</strong>, which still apply<br />

today:<br />

1. To foster and promote marathon<br />

running throughout the world.<br />

2. To work with IAAF on all matters relating<br />

to international marathons.<br />

3. To exchange information, knowledge<br />

and expertise among members of the<br />

Association.<br />

The success of <strong>AIMS</strong> can largely be<br />

attributed to following these basic principles.<br />

In the foreword to the first yearbook Chris<br />

Brasher wrote “This is the first edition of what,<br />

we hope, will become an annual calendar of the<br />

major international marathons in the world.<br />

You, the runner, know that a marathon is the<br />

ultimate test in the track and field calendar and<br />

if you are going to travel to a major race, you<br />

want to be certain that the course is measured


25 YEARS OF <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

accurately and that the<br />

organisation enables you to<br />

produce your best<br />

performance. That is what<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong> is about. We were<br />

formed to disseminate<br />

information amongst our<br />

members to ensure that all<br />

the races listed in this<br />

yearbook are of the<br />

standard that you would<br />

expect. So, travel with<br />

confidence, race with<br />

enjoyment and please write<br />

to us if you have any<br />

constructive comments…”<br />

28 <strong>AIMS</strong> member marathons were listed in the<br />

1985 <strong>AIMS</strong> calendar <strong>–</strong> beginning with the Miami<br />

Adverts from <strong>AIMS</strong> member races were included in<br />

the Yearbook as well as photos from those races that<br />

supplied them. Race reports were to follow in future<br />

editions. There was a pace chart as well. With the<br />

publication of the<br />

first <strong>AIMS</strong> yearbook it<br />

was possible to<br />

inform a mass<br />

publicised, giving the<br />

Vince Regan and was printed in Rochester, England.<br />

The magazine was A5 size and was published once<br />

each year until 1988 when it was deemed necessary,<br />

due to the expansion of <strong>AIMS</strong> membership, to<br />

produce two editions each year. Up to 1990 the<br />

magazine was produced and printed by Spiridon in<br />

Germany. President Robert Dalgleish moved<br />

production to Scotland under the publishers, Holmes<br />

McDougall Ltd., shortly before he died in October<br />

1990. The first edition printed in Glasgow was that for<br />

the first half of 1991.<br />

At the initial meeting in London in <strong>1982</strong> it had<br />

been decided that any elected president could serve<br />

a maximum of three consecutive terms. Since<br />

Boston’s Will Cloney had stepped down already in<br />

BOB DALGLEISH<br />

1983 (he had afterwards been elected President<br />

Emeritus) there was no need to elect a new<br />

president. Chris Brasher (London) was re-elected at<br />

the 3 rd World Congress of <strong>AIMS</strong> that took place in<br />

West Berlin in September 1985. Robert Dalgleish<br />

(Glasgow) and Fred Lebow (New York) served as<br />

Vice- Presidents. In the meantime membership had<br />

grown to more than 40 members including the Avon<br />

Women’s Marathon under Race Director Kathy<br />

Switzer of Boston Marathon fame, five Marathons<br />

from Japan and nine from the USA. Other countries<br />

involved were Australia, Belgium, Bermuda, Brazil,<br />

The 1986 <strong>AIMS</strong> Marathon Yearbook carried an<br />

article entitled ‘Marathon Course Measurement <strong>–</strong> The<br />

State of the Art’ by John Disley (London) and Allan<br />

Steinfeld (New York). They stressed the importance<br />

of correct measurement for all participants.<br />

■<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong> lost one of its finest ambassadors on 22 October 1990 with the untimely death of the President,<br />

Robert M. Dalgleish (54). He was involved in sport for many years and between 1978 and 1990 had<br />

been Sports Promotion Officer for the City of Glasgow.<br />

He was one of those responsible for getting the Glasgow Marathon started, and he continued as Race<br />

Director of the Great Scottish Run, which succeeded the marathon. Bob Dalgleish was a respected member of<br />

the International Amateur Athletics Federation (IAAF), and a former President of both the Scottish Amateur<br />

Athletic Association and the Scottish Cross Country Union. He was closely involved with the 1986 Commonwealth<br />

Games in Edinburgh.<br />

But Bob Dalgleish’s proudest and most treasured achievement in athletics was becoming President of<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong>. He took over from Chris Brasher in 1987 and the Association owes much to the innovation, expertise, time and honesty he gave as<br />

President. He always had time to listen to every side of a discussion, and stood firm on the policies that have built <strong>AIMS</strong> to the position of respect<br />

and strength that it holds today.<br />

Andrew (Andy) Galloway was born in Auckland, New Zealand in 1930. “My running career probably<br />

started at the age of five when my mother walked me 15 kilometres to school for my first day,<br />

but made the mistake of letting go of my hand when we reached the school gate. I took off, running as fast<br />

as my little legs would carry me, and didn't stop until I reached the safety of my home”, Andy Galloway<br />

recalls. “At the age of sixteen a very good friend who was a New Zealand Junior Champion at javelin and<br />

hammer throw, asked me to join him in his endeavour to stay fit during the winter season and to join the<br />

local winter running club. That was it; I was soon addicted to running and have remained a member of<br />

Hamilton Harrier Club for the past 60 years, serving as Committee Member, President and now Patron and<br />

Life Member.”<br />

Andy Galloway ran his first marathon at the age of 20 and “Because of my interest and love of<br />

marathons, I started taking groups of runners to overseas events such as the Honolulu Marathon or the<br />

Round Rarotonga Road Race.” It was on the tour to Honolulu in 1981 that he was asked to attend a meeting of race directors to discuss the<br />

possibility of a World Marathon Circuit.<br />

This was his introduction to Will Cloney (Boston), Chris Brasher (London), Fred Lebow (New York), Serge Arsenault (Montreal) and others.<br />

Andy Galloway was then elected to the first Board of <strong>AIMS</strong>. He was appointed as Secretary/Treasurer and was involved in all aspects of the<br />

Association for the next 15 years.<br />

25 YEARS OF <strong>AIMS</strong> 1985 TO 1990<br />

congress it was decided<br />

that all road races up to the<br />

marathon distance could<br />

join <strong>AIMS</strong>. The official name<br />

was changed to the<br />

Association of International<br />

Marathons and Road Races.<br />

The first few non-marathon<br />

races to join <strong>AIMS</strong> and<br />

appear in the <strong>AIMS</strong> calendar<br />

of 1988 were the 25km de<br />

Berlin, the Gothenburg Half<br />

Marathon, the Golden Horn<br />

Half Marathon (Istanbul)<br />

and the 20km in Manila. In<br />

1988 the Yearbook began to<br />

be published twice yearly. It<br />

continued to appear in A5<br />

format with a coloured<br />

cover but inside pages were<br />

still black and white.<br />

At the 6 th World<br />

Congress of <strong>AIMS</strong> held in<br />

April 1990, under the<br />

leadership of president<br />

Bob Dalgleish, <strong>AIMS</strong>’<br />

membership was extended<br />

to ultradistance and Ekiden<br />

(marathon relay) events.<br />

Another change in<br />

presidency happened later that year due to the sad<br />

death of Bob Dalgleish in October. Hiroaki Chosa<br />

was appointed interim president. By then <strong>AIMS</strong> had<br />

grown to 85 members plus two associate members.<br />

In 1988 the International Amateur Athletics<br />

Federation (IAAF) had officially adopted the method<br />

of course measurement which had been developed<br />

by <strong>AIMS</strong>. <strong>AIMS</strong> also started to encourage members<br />

THE INTERNATIONAL MARATHON MEDICAL DIRECTORS ASSOCIATION (IMMDA)<br />

■<br />

The International Marathon Medical Directors Association (IMMDA) has been an <strong>AIMS</strong> affiliate since 1987. IMMDA was originally founded<br />

in <strong>1982</strong> by the medical directors of three international marathons (London, Madrid and New York City) and has since grown to include<br />

marathon medical directors from five continents. IMMDA's main objectives are:<br />

i) to study and promote the health of long-distance runners<br />

ii) to promote knowledge and research of the best methods in prevention and treatment of injuries<br />

iii) to prevent the occurrence of injuries during mass participation runs;<br />

iv) to offer guidelines that may provide standardisation in the medical support of marathon races throughout the world<br />

v) to promote a close working relationship between race organisers and medical directors <strong>–</strong> to better achieve the above.<br />

IMMDA emphasises that medical directors should work closely with race directors in all matters for medical input and advice. The beauty<br />

of the organisation is that, by bringing together different medical directors from very different marathons run in very different conditions, a<br />

tremendous informational resource system is created. “Every marathon has its own set of potential medical problems,” says Dr. Lewis G. Maharam,<br />

the current IMMDA Secretary and Treasurer. “But because of IMMDA, medical directors have immediate access to other medical directors with<br />

significant experience in every imaginable range of circumstances, whether it be temperature, terrain or number of first-time runners. It means<br />

everyone can benefit from everyone else's experience. No medical director should have to start at square one.”<br />

At its 4th World Congress, held in Manila in 1987, <strong>AIMS</strong> recognised IMMDA as its medical affiliate. <strong>AIMS</strong> has consistently advised all their<br />

marathon race directors to get their medical directors to join IMMDA, and IMMDA strongly encourages its members to have their race directors<br />

contact <strong>AIMS</strong> for membership. IMMDA has provided medical advice to marathon race directors and medical directors, as well as directly to runners,<br />

on several life-and-death medical matters. IMMDA has also provided guidelines in the medical management of marathons covering the topics<br />

of heat stress, cardiac risks, running injury prevention and many other pertinent subjects.<br />

Many of these articles have been published first in the <strong>AIMS</strong> Marathon Yearbook and in Distance Running. Since more and more people all<br />

over the world understand the health benefits available through running, IMMDA and its medical directors, in conjunction with <strong>AIMS</strong>, will play a<br />

crucial role in the future development of road running.

to carry out doping control at their events<br />

whenever significant prize money was at<br />

stake, which had not been common practice<br />

at that time. In 2001 a group of major <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

marathon races (Berlin, Boston, NYC,<br />

London, Chicago) introduced blood testing at<br />

their races, a practice which was then<br />

adopted by more and more races.<br />

Elite runners set three world bests, as<br />

they were officially called at that time, during<br />

this period. Two of them stood for many<br />

years. At the London Marathon on 21 April<br />

1985 Ingrid Kristiansen (Norway) ran 2:21:06.<br />

In doing so she improved Joan Benoit’s time<br />

by 97 seconds. Her record stood for 13 years.<br />

There were two world bests in the Rotterdam<br />

Marathon, a race still renowned for its fast course.<br />

three years later Ethiopian Belayneh Dinsamo ran<br />

2:06:50. This time remained unbeaten for ten years.<br />

To verify the record the Rotterdam course was then<br />

re-measured by two wellknown<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong> measurers:<br />

John Disley (London) and<br />

Helge Ibert (Berlin). Ibert<br />

measured 42,204 metres<br />

while Disley’s result was<br />

42,199m.<br />

Italy’s Gelindo Bordin<br />

(2:10:32) and Portugal’s<br />

Rosa Mota (2:25:40) won<br />

the Olympic marathon<br />

gold medals in Seoul in<br />

1988. Mota had become<br />

marathon world champion<br />

a year earlier in Rome<br />

coming home two<br />

kilometres clear of her<br />

nearest rival in a time of<br />

2:25:17. Douglas Wakiihuri,<br />

one of the first successful<br />

Kenyan marathon runners,<br />

had taken the gold in<br />

Rome with 2:11:48, and<br />

finished second to Bordin<br />

n these years <strong>AIMS</strong> grew to<br />

embrace over 100 members.<br />

Under the new <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

President, Japan’s Hiroaki<br />

Chosa, who still leads the<br />

association today, ties to the<br />

IAAF became much stronger.<br />

President Chosa was also<br />

responsible for recruiting several<br />

new Japanese sponsors who gave<br />

generous support to <strong>AIMS</strong> and<br />

consolidated the Association’s<br />

financial position. Under this<br />

confident new regime the <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

Yearbook was changed into a<br />

completely new format. From an<br />

A5 size ‘handbook’ it became an A4<br />

size magazine named “Distance<br />

Running” and adopted increasingly<br />

higher production values.<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong> continued to grow steadily in these<br />

years. Including associate members the figure<br />

passed 100 for the first time in 1992. A year later<br />

membership surpassed 100 full members. A<br />

landmark race that joined in 1991 was the<br />

Kosice Marathon in Slovakia (formerly<br />

Czechoslovakia). Apart from Boston, Kosice was<br />

the world’s oldest existing annual marathon.<br />

The Boston Marathon had first been run in<br />

1897 and has since been held every year,<br />

including the war years (although in 1918 it was<br />

limited to a relay for military teams). To this<br />

day Boston stages one of the best quality and<br />

most spectacular of international marathons.<br />

The Kosice Marathon was first held in 1924.<br />

Despite the enormous civil disruption of the<br />

war years it was only suspended for the years<br />

1938 and 1940.<br />

After the death of Bob Dalgleish Hiroaki<br />

Chosa had acted for more than a year as the<br />

interim president of <strong>AIMS</strong>. At the 7th I<br />

World<br />

Congress of <strong>AIMS</strong>, held in Bangkok from 25 <strong>–</strong> 27<br />

November, he was confirmed as the new <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

President. At the Barcelona Congress in 1996<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong> dropped the rule that limited the <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

President to serving a maximum of three terms<br />

and Hiroaki Chosa, who is race director of the<br />

prestigious Fukuoka Marathon, is still <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

President today.<br />

At the Bangkok Congress members took<br />

the unanimous decision to confer the title of<br />

President Emeritus on Fred Lebow, the race<br />

director of the New York Marathon. This was


25 YEARS OF <strong>AIMS</strong> 1991 TO 1995<br />

only the second time this award had been made, the<br />

previous recipient being the first <strong>AIMS</strong> president Will<br />

Cloney of the Boston Marathon. Hiroaki Chosa<br />

presented the award to Fred Lebow and at the<br />

ceremony <strong>AIMS</strong> secretary Andy Galloway said: “Fred<br />

has long been regarded as the father of the modern<br />

marathon. Mass participation alongside top runners<br />

competing for big money awards were brought<br />

together by this incredible man’s achievement. It is<br />

only appropriate that this should be recognised in<br />

this way.” Less than three years later Fred Lebow<br />

died of brain cancer, on 9 October 1994, at the age of<br />

62 (see profile on page 12). This was just four weeks<br />

before his New York City Marathon celebrated its<br />

25 th edition.<br />

The <strong>AIMS</strong> magazine was further upgraded at<br />

the beginning of the 1990s. The first issue for 1992<br />

was called ‘<strong>AIMS</strong> 1992 (1)’. It was still in A5 format,<br />

with 64 black and white pages inside the cover. The<br />

second edition of that year looked completely<br />

different. It was called ‘<strong>AIMS</strong> Yearbook <strong>–</strong><br />

March/September 1992’ and appeared in A4 format<br />

with 44 pages inside, mainly black and white but<br />

with occasional colour. The next magazine was the<br />

‘Distance Running<br />

Yearbook September<br />

1992 <strong>–</strong> March 1993’.<br />

Two issues were also<br />

produced during 1993<br />

and 1994, with<br />

inconsistent dates:<br />

‘March <strong>–</strong> August 1993’,<br />

‘September 1993 <strong>–</strong><br />

February 1994’, ‘March<br />

<strong>–</strong> September 1994’ and<br />

‘September <strong>–</strong> December<br />

1994’. From 1995 these<br />

inconsistencies were<br />

resolved. ‘Distance Running’ became<br />

published twice yearly in A4 format © www.photorun.net<br />

with between 56 and 64 pages<br />

featuring occasional colour. They were<br />

labelled ‘January <strong>–</strong> June’ and ‘July <strong>–</strong><br />

December’. In the first edition of the<br />

new size in 1992 <strong>AIMS</strong> President<br />

Hiroaki Chosa had written a foreword<br />

that laid out three objectives:<br />

1. Establishing a sound financial<br />

base for <strong>AIMS</strong>, finding other sponsors<br />

as well as ASICS and Lufthansa, and<br />

giving more support to races.<br />

2. Developing links with the<br />

International Amateur Athletic<br />

Federation (IAAF) by expanding the<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong> Yearbook to include news from<br />

IAAF, by improving the network of<br />

official course measurers, and by<br />

developing better equipment and<br />

other appropriate means.<br />

3. Continuing to promote marathons<br />

and other road races as a<br />

contribution to good fellowship and well<br />

being of all people throughout the world<br />

regardless of nationality or politics. In<br />

this way, it is not too much to say that<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong> also works for peace and<br />

reconciliation throughout the world.<br />

In some of the <strong>AIMS</strong> Yearbooks<br />

the foreword was not only published<br />

in English but also in German, Spanish<br />

and Japanese. Some editions also<br />

carried a French version.<br />

Hiroaki Chosa was quick to act<br />

on his agenda. As a member of the<br />

Cross Country and Road Running<br />

Committee (since October 1985) he had close<br />

connections with IAAF. Through these the ‘Distance<br />

Running Yearbook September 1992 <strong>–</strong> March 1993’<br />

Belgrade Marathon<br />

HIROAKI CHOSA<br />

became the first joint edition of the magazine,<br />

officially linking IAAF and <strong>AIMS</strong>. “IAAF News” has<br />

since then formed an integral part of the magazine.<br />

■<br />

Hiroaki Chosa has been President of <strong>AIMS</strong> since October 1990. After the untimely death of Bob<br />

Dalgleish he first acted as interim president and was then officially elected by the 7th World Congress<br />

of <strong>AIMS</strong> held in November 1991. He is the fourth president of <strong>AIMS</strong> but he has guided the association for<br />

twice as long as all his predecessors together.<br />

Hiroaki Chosa, who is the long-serving race director of the prestigious Fukuoka Marathon, was a<br />

successful middle distance runner. Born in 1930 he became Japanese Champion at 800m and 1,500m in<br />

1953. A year later he graduated from Tokyo University of Education, specialising in coaching methods. As<br />

an official in his sport he became the manager for the Japanese athletics team at the Montreal Olympic<br />

Games in 1976.<br />

Hiroaki Chosa has been a member of the IAAF Cross Country and Road Running Committee since<br />

1985. In 1988 he was appointed Deputy Chief of the Japanese Delegation for the Olympic Games in Seoul. He became a board member of the<br />

Japanese Olympic Committee in 1991 and has acted as Executive Vice President and Managing Director of the Japanese Association of Athletics<br />

Federations (JAAF) since 1993. He is Chairman of the Organising Committee for the <strong>2007</strong> World Championships in Athletics to be held in Osaka.<br />

Parallel progress was also made on the financial<br />

side. In the second 1995 edition of Distance Running<br />

five sponsors were listed, of which four were<br />

Japanese: Asics, Citizen, John Hancock, Konica and<br />

Nissin. With the growth in membership many more<br />

copies of ‘Distance Running’ were being distributed.<br />

The two 1995 editions had a combined circulation of<br />

450,000, distributed at <strong>AIMS</strong> races worldwide.<br />

After the end of apartheid and the readmission<br />

of South Africa into international sport in 1992, in<br />

1993 the Two Oceans Marathon became its nation’s<br />

first <strong>AIMS</strong> member. This famous 56km race was<br />

joined one year later by another even more<br />

renowned South African ultradistance race, the<br />

Comrades Marathon (89km).<br />

Great progress was also being made in the<br />

technical aspects of road running. A new era in race<br />

timing began in 1994. A test was carried out during a<br />

regional race in Berlin at the end of August, after<br />

which the innovative “chip timing” system came into<br />

use during the Berlin Marathon held one month<br />

later. This new technology, invented by the Dutch<br />

company ChampionChip, then started to be used at<br />

a few major international road races.<br />

Each runner would fix a passive transponder or<br />

“chip” to their shoelaces before the race. This<br />

registered times as the runner passed over mats in<br />

which receptors were embedded. According to


1991 TO 1995<br />

international rules<br />

the times given for<br />

winners remained<br />

as that elapsed from<br />

the shot of the start<br />

gun, but it was now<br />

possible to time<br />

each runner individually.<br />

Time could<br />

be given as that<br />

elapsed from the<br />

moment any runner<br />

passed over a start<br />

mat to the moment<br />

they crossed the<br />

mat at the finish<br />

line. The time it had taken any runner to cross the<br />

starting line behind thousands of other mass<br />

runners was no longer very significant.<br />

It was also possible to place timing mats at<br />

other points along the course to obtain split times<br />

at, for example, 10km, half way or 30km. This had a<br />

welcome side effect for race organisers in that it<br />

became much easier to detect cheating. If runners<br />

had not registered a split time at any particular<br />

timing point then it was unlikely that they had ever<br />

run across the mat placed there, but had instead cut<br />

the course. With such obvious advantages chip<br />

timing soon became used by almost all major road<br />

races throughout the world.<br />

There were other<br />

positive developments<br />

that emerged more<br />

gradually. From their<br />

very first race the<br />

London Marathon had<br />

enjoyed great popularity<br />

among runners<br />

raising funds for<br />

charity, and this<br />

gradually spread to<br />

other races. In the<br />

1990s <strong>AIMS</strong> had cooperated<br />

with UNICEF<br />

and several member<br />

races supported the<br />

charity. At more and<br />

more races, especially<br />

in Great Britain and the<br />

USA, runners generated<br />

millions and millions of<br />

pounds or dollars for<br />

charity. Today races in<br />

many other countries<br />

have strong connections<br />

to charity.<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong> member<br />

race organisers also<br />

did much to promote<br />

and support women’s<br />

running. This had been<br />

taken seriously right<br />

from the beginning, but<br />

in 1995 the Association began to lay plans for a “Year<br />

of the Woman Runner”. This was originally intended<br />

to be 1996 but became deferred to 1998 to coincide<br />

with similar IAAF plans. Races for wheelchair<br />

athletes had already been included in a number of<br />

big <strong>AIMS</strong> events early in the 1980s. Several big<br />

marathons helped to develop the sport for<br />

handicapped people by giving them the opportunity<br />

to race. In this way wheelchair athletes were placed<br />

centre stage, and suddenly received a lot of<br />

attention from spectators and the media.<br />

At the 9 th World Congress of <strong>AIMS</strong> held in<br />

Macau in 1994 Berlin Marathon race director Horst<br />

Coban Half Marathon, Guatemala<br />

Milde proposed the establishment of an <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

Museum. He had already worked closely with the<br />

Sports Museum in Berlin and that then incorporated<br />

the official <strong>AIMS</strong> Marathon-Museum of Running.<br />

Chris Brasher was named President Emeritus of<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong> in 1995. Brasher, who had initiated the London<br />

Marathon, was one of the founding members of<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong> and was the second president of the<br />

Association (see profile on page 13).<br />

World marathon records, still called “World Best<br />

Performances” by IAAF, did not improve in this period<br />

but the number of championship races multiplied<br />

with the change of the World Championships to a<br />

two-year cycle. There were surprise<br />

outcomes in both of the 1992 Olympic<br />

Marathon races held in Barcelona. Hwang<br />

Young-Cho of South Korea won the men’s<br />

race in 2:13:23 while Russia’s Valentina<br />

Yegorova took the women’s gold with<br />

2:32:41. World Championships took place in<br />

1991, 1993 and 1995: Hiromi Taniguchi<br />

(Japan/ 2:14:57) and Wanda Panfil (Poland/<br />

2:29:53) won in Tokyo in 1991; Mark Plaatjes<br />

(USA/ 2:13:57) and Junko Asari (Japan/<br />

2:30:03) took the golds in Stuttgart in 1993;<br />

and Martin Fiz (Spain/2:11:41) and Manuela<br />

Machado (Portugal/2:25:39) won in<br />

Gothenburg in 1995.<br />

The <strong>AIMS</strong>/ASICS World Athlete of the<br />

Year Award had been introduced three<br />

years earlier. Benson Masya (Kenya) and<br />

Liz McColgan (Scotland) were the first winners<br />

of this title which has been awarded<br />

annually since (see full list on page 39).


1991 TO 1995 25 YEARS OF <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

■<br />

Running has varied roots and traditions that reach far back through history.<br />

The sport has passed through highs and lows. It acknowledges many great<br />

achievements and gives rise to numerous legends about exceptional athletes.<br />

Less well recorded are the efforts of untiring organisers, countless volunteers and<br />

enthusiasts, and the constant permeation of new ideas. Running has an<br />

international character and provides a special tie between elite sport and sport for<br />

the masses. Up until 1994, this cultural history lacked a permanent home where<br />

it could be professionally collected and exhibited.<br />

The Berlin Sports<br />

Museum, founded in 1925,<br />

is a specialist museum<br />

of cultural history. It<br />

documents the development<br />

of the “culture of movement”<br />

from its beginnings to the<br />

present day. It includes both<br />

professional sport and sport<br />

for the masses, as well as<br />

specific topics, such as the<br />

impact of sport on the<br />

development of society.<br />

Berlin has a special<br />

relationship with running.<br />

The first cross-country and<br />

road races took place<br />

around 1900 and long<br />

Electromechanical time clock (race timekeeping device) from the distance running found an<br />

company “Württembergische Uhrenfabrik Bürk Söhne, important home base in<br />

Schwenningen” Type: ZS 67/2s, No. 36673 for 220V AC. Berlin. From here numerous<br />

This clock was developed for use in public races. The initiatives for both German<br />

participant’s time, measured down to the second, was stamped and international running<br />

onto his participant card. Due to unavoidable delays at the start arose. The Berlin Crossand<br />

finish, the stamped time usually exceeded the individual’s Country Race (started in<br />

actual time.<br />

1964) and the Berlin<br />

Marathon (started in 1974)<br />

successfully carry on these traditions and are now prominent running events. The<br />

Berlin Sports Museum is a natural home for a museum of running. For that<br />

reason, during the 9th World Congress of <strong>AIMS</strong>,<br />

held in Macau in December 1994, Horst Milde<br />

(founder and long-time race director of the Berlin<br />

Marathon) proposed that the Berlin Sports Museum<br />

should incorporate an “<strong>AIMS</strong> Marathon-Museum of<br />

Running”. <strong>AIMS</strong> undertook to support the<br />

comprehensive documentation of the international<br />

development of the sport of running, especially of<br />

marathon and long distance running.<br />

The history of running in Berlin finally won a<br />

fitting venue for its collection. In 2004 the Berlin<br />

Sports Museum received well-equipped workrooms<br />

and storage space in the Berlin Olympic Park.<br />

Since November 2006 it has been gradually<br />

expanding its capacity to exhibit its treasures. By the<br />

time the World Championships in Athletics is staged<br />

in Berlin in 2009, there will be a permanent exhibit<br />

on Olympic history in Berlin and an exhibition of the<br />

history of running will be complete.<br />

Since 1994, with the close co-operation of<br />

numerous friends and supporters, the basis for an<br />

international running museum has been collected.<br />

About 15,000 very diverse artefacts (jerseys, running<br />

shoes, posters, medals, prizes, advertising and<br />

organisational materials) have been collected, and<br />

together with the library and archives (publications,<br />

numerous running magazines, programmes, lists of<br />

participants and results, advertisements, photos,<br />

videos, etc.) now fill about 120 metres of shelving.<br />

his was the period during<br />

which <strong>AIMS</strong> seemed to<br />

stutter, like a jumper on<br />

the runway, before<br />

bounding forward.<br />

Membership seemed to<br />

be stable, or “stagnating”<br />

at around 110 members,<br />

but changes were being made which<br />

were formative in stimulating<br />

renewed growth only a few years<br />

later. The 10th BY PACO BORAO<br />

T<br />

World Congress of<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong>, held in Barcelona in 1996,<br />

was the launching pad from which<br />

the Association was to reach new<br />

heights. Hiroaki Chosa was reelected<br />

as the president of <strong>AIMS</strong>.<br />

Andy Galloway had given notice<br />

that he wished to step down from<br />

his post as General Secretary, and<br />

after a few months’ hiatus he was<br />

succeeded by a former world class<br />

marathon runner, Hugh Jones.<br />

The size of the Association, the<br />

communications requirements, the sponsorship<br />

needs, the increasingly detailed relationship with<br />

IAAF, and the mounting burden of administration<br />

mandated significant internal changes. In the<br />

world at large technological change was also<br />

dictating terms. This was the dawn of the<br />

electronic age. <strong>AIMS</strong> promptly generated a web<br />

page (www.aims-association.org) but it would<br />

take some years (and the dot.com bust) before<br />

the true value of the new technology could be<br />

realised for the benefit of the Association.<br />

What happened within <strong>AIMS</strong> after 1996 was<br />

an outcome of the extraordinary heritage left by<br />

those who created and launched the Association,<br />

under extremely difficult circumstances.<br />

At the beginning of the 1980s, marathon<br />

races were almost unknown by the public and<br />

the media, and only a few cities around the<br />

world were organising such competitions.<br />

The foremost tribute must go to those 30odd<br />

race organisers who gave birth to the<br />

Association of International Marathons in <strong>1982</strong>.<br />

Their example, later followed by others, started<br />

the move towards the popularisation of road<br />

running. This was a highly innovative and<br />

significant change, integrating social and<br />

sporting innovation. In the wake of this basic<br />

development, more and more races joined <strong>AIMS</strong>:


25 YEARS OF <strong>AIMS</strong> 1996 TO 2000<br />

there were 70 members by 1990, and a hundred of<br />

them <strong>–</strong> from 40 different countries, by 1995.<br />

The first open World Congress of <strong>AIMS</strong> was held<br />

in Tokyo in January 1983. Since then another<br />

fourteen congresses have been held. In March <strong>2007</strong>,<br />

the 16th World Congress of <strong>AIMS</strong> will be held in<br />

Xiamen, China, celebrating the 25 th anniversary of<br />

our Association. That is a great achievement. Much<br />

hard work has been done by the many people<br />

involved in this great associative project.<br />

Barcelona had hosted the 1992 Olympics, and<br />

in December 1994 members attending the 9 th World<br />

Congress of <strong>AIMS</strong> in Macau voted for Barcelona as<br />

the next venue, for the 10 th World Congress of <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

in March 1996.<br />

The Barcelona Congress was a significant<br />

milestone in determining the future growth of <strong>AIMS</strong>.<br />

Increasing numbers, communication needs,<br />

sponsor-ship requirements and more involved<br />

dealings with IAAF generated administrative<br />

demands that required big changes. One of the<br />

major objectives of the Congress was to find a new<br />

General Secretary, as Andy Galloway, who had held<br />

the post since the formation of <strong>AIMS</strong> had given<br />

notice of his decision to resign.<br />

Barcelona was proud of its beautiful<br />

environment, and of the sports facilities that had<br />

been built for the Barcelona Olympics of 1992. With<br />

this background the Congress was projected<br />

34<br />

towards success, and the most pressing objectives<br />

were achieved.<br />

Hiroaki Chosa, Vice President of the Japanese<br />

Athletics Federation, was re-elected as President. His<br />

deep knowledge of international athletics, his close<br />

contacts with IAAF, and his ability to convince<br />

several world-renowned Japanese firms to sponsor<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong>, were enormous assets for our Association.<br />

The 10 th Congress also set in process a motion<br />

that, three months later, saw Hugh Jones named as<br />

Secretary. He had won the <strong>1982</strong> London Marathon,<br />

14 years earlier, at the same moment and in the<br />

same place where the establishing Congress of the<br />

Association had been held.<br />

From 1996 to 2000 <strong>AIMS</strong> experienced similar<br />

membership growth as during the previous five-year<br />

period. Being specifically assigned to this area of<br />

responsibility, I strove to understand the marketing,<br />

sponsorship and social reasons that powered the<br />

evolution of road running. But there was no clear,<br />

solid reason that could explain why there was such<br />

a low growth rate in membership when an<br />

extraordinary worldwide boom was in progress.<br />

National economies were experiencing strong<br />

growth (the Dow Jones Index rose from 6,000 points<br />

in March 1996 to 11,700 points in January 2000). But<br />

this economic wellbeing was not reflected in our<br />

membership growth or in increased sponsorship. It<br />

seemed as if people were gorging on economic<br />

growth alone, and they had no time left to devote to<br />

anything else in life. Telecommunications, nascent<br />

internet possibilities, and burgeoning expectations<br />

were driving our lives throughout the world <strong>–</strong> with<br />

no time for left to do anything but invest money in<br />

future ‘dreams’.<br />

In contrast, hard times require internal strength,<br />

professionalism, and above all <strong>–</strong> team work. This<br />

much was clear to me with my new, specific,<br />

responsibility on <strong>AIMS</strong> Board. Meeting with the<br />

Board members twice a year does not give too much<br />

time to contact, exchange views and share ideas.<br />

E-mail quickly became the habitual and necessary<br />

communication channel, between Board members<br />

and with all member race directors.<br />

New technologies call for new skills and new<br />

management tools. Very early we understood that,<br />

dealing with a membership of hundreds spread all<br />

HUGH JONES<br />

over the world, maintaining accurate data on<br />

member events (contact names, addresses,<br />

telephone and fax numbers, e-mails) was essential.<br />

All departments <strong>–</strong> administration, finance, technical,<br />

statistics, public relations <strong>–</strong> needed a permanent<br />

database, continuously updated, to maintain both<br />

the intimacy and efficiency of contact within the<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong> member-ship.<br />

Even though Distance Running had rapidly<br />

become the “shop window” of <strong>AIMS</strong> it had<br />

operated within tight budgetary limits. The<br />

Internet seemed to offer a less cash-constrained<br />

alternative: to build the web site (www.aimsassociation.org)<br />

as an effective marketing medium.<br />

In what now seems a far-sighted move both the<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong> and the IAAF website addresses appeared<br />

together on the front cover of the July-December<br />

1999 edition of Distance Running. Within <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

■<br />

Hugh Jones succeeded Andy Galloway as <strong>AIMS</strong> Secretary on 1 July 1996, after a career as a marathon<br />

runner (from 1981) and freelance athletics journalist (from 1987). He was born in London in 1955,<br />

and ascribed his later success as a runner partly to running to and from school (1200m, four times daily) for<br />

most of the 1960s. In the 1970s he ran casually at secondary school and then at the University of Liverpool.<br />

In 1978 he ran and won his first marathon (2:25). In 1981 he won the English Championships with a time<br />

of 2:14, which propelled him into a professional running career. His first major win was the <strong>1982</strong> London<br />

Marathon with a time of 2:09:24, which coincided with the foundation of <strong>AIMS</strong>. He competed in city<br />

marathons and championships in the 1980s (World Chs 8th & 5th ) but his failure to complete the 1990<br />

London Marathon led him to diversify more seriously into athletics journalism.<br />

He also qualified as an international course measurer which helped to make him an obvious candidate<br />

to succeed Andy Galloway as <strong>AIMS</strong> Secretary in 1996. Jones continued as both a runner and a journalist but the <strong>AIMS</strong> job grew with increasing<br />

membership of the Association and in practical terms became full-time. He became editor of Distance Running in 2000. Jones still lives in London<br />

with his wife and four children.<br />

there was never much doubt that we would need<br />

all tools available, both to present ourselves as an<br />

association and to offer each of our members that<br />

same opportunity.<br />

All this was happening against the background of<br />

sluggish membership growth. Few new members<br />

were coming in, but this was far preferable to an<br />

influx of new members and an exodus of old<br />

members. Turnover within <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

membership has historically been low: the<br />

association spontaneously generates a<br />

certain loyalty to the cause. After intense<br />

debate of these issues the <strong>AIMS</strong> Board<br />

plumped for the unglamorous strategy of<br />

“manageable growth”. Ensuring quality<br />

and reliability of information and<br />

communication was deemed more<br />

important than an aggressive push to<br />

increase the membership roll. Even so, it<br />

was acknowledged that <strong>AIMS</strong> had to<br />

expand its image and ideas, particularly to<br />

recognise that events were being born in<br />

places where <strong>AIMS</strong> had no previous reach.<br />

Congresses were held at Enschede<br />

(Netherlands) in 1997, and at Kosice<br />

(Slovakia) in 1999, giving all attendees<br />

excellent opportunities of meeting<br />

together and exchanging their views about<br />

race organisation and their practical knowhow.<br />

In general, most race directors<br />

recognise that their own experience is<br />

limited. It is a hallmark of the marathon<br />

trade that organisers are always keen to<br />

hear about kindred marathon events, and<br />

learn from their experience.


1996 TO 2000 25 YEARS OF <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

Looking back, I remember a<br />

lot of race organisers who tried<br />

to figure out the whole picture of<br />

their race from the experiences<br />

of others. After a lot of mental<br />

gymnastics, they understood<br />

that only the technical area was<br />

the same for everyone. Everything<br />

else (logistics, commercial,<br />

sponsorship, volunteer management,<br />

public administration<br />

involvement) were subjects too<br />

difficult to generalise. Theory is<br />

one thing, but experience, as all<br />

dictionaries say, is “the gaining of<br />

knowledge from practice”. No<br />

one can transfer experience, so<br />

each race director is king or<br />

queen in their own realm.<br />

On the coal face of the sport,<br />

the men’s world marathon record had been cut<br />

back to 2:06:50 <strong>–</strong> recorded in the 1988 Rotterdam<br />

Marathon by Ethiopian Belayneh Dinsamo.<br />

Prague International Marathon 1999<br />

Distance Running Archive<br />

Ten years later, after running a relatively slow first<br />

half of the Berlin Marathon, the Brazilian Ronaldo<br />

da Costa speeded up with each kilometre over the<br />

second half to record 2:06:05. The<br />

dam had burst: the following year<br />

Khalid Khannouchi, Moroccan-born<br />

but naturalised as a US citizen<br />

further improved the mark to 2:05:42<br />

in Chicago.<br />

The “best performance” for the<br />

women’s marathon had been set by<br />

Ingrid Kristiansen in the 1985 London<br />

Marathon, where she recorded<br />

2:21:06. That mark stood for 13 years<br />

until Tegla Loroupe broke it by 19<br />

seconds in the 1998 Rotterdam<br />

Marathon. A year later in Berlin she<br />

broke the record again, improving by<br />

four seconds to 2:20:43. Her time<br />

survived the turn of the Millennium,<br />

but in the year 2000 another player<br />

had entered onto the world stage.<br />

Naoko Takahashi, maybe Japan’s<br />

greatest marathoner, won gold with a<br />

new Olympic record, and a year later<br />

became the first woman to break the<br />

2:20 barrier in Berlin.<br />

All these heroic achievements<br />

necessarily take place against a<br />

background of humdrum administration.<br />

The <strong>AIMS</strong> Articles of<br />

Association require that <strong>AIMS</strong> races<br />

must comply with certain technical<br />

rules. Above all they must have their<br />

race course measured and then<br />

certified by an official measurer<br />

37


25 YEARS OF <strong>AIMS</strong> 1996 TO 2000<br />

appointed by the <strong>AIMS</strong> Technical Committee under<br />

the rules of <strong>AIMS</strong> and IAAF. That is a wordy way of<br />

saying that Marathons must be Marathons, and no<br />

less. Maintaining this dictum has been the task of<br />

the <strong>AIMS</strong> Technical Director, and it is a true labour of<br />

Sisyphus. New member races, and course changes<br />

of established members, require continuous<br />

surveillance and meticulous documentation to<br />

ensure that the integrity of the mystic marathon<br />

distance is respected.<br />

Within a worldwide organisation it is too easy to<br />

assume a common understanding. Achieving this in<br />

Paco Borao, who has<br />

written this chapter and<br />

the following one, is the<br />

Membership Director of<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong>. He was elected to<br />

Directors at the 10 th<br />

practice requires detailed data management and<br />

unimpeded communication among the appointed<br />

decision makers. Email has appeared as the perfect<br />

tool for this <strong>–</strong> but there are always imperfections.<br />

People living in the developed world blithely assume<br />

that their environment is something common to all<br />

continents and groups, which far from the truth.<br />

Access to certain technologies is still patchy in many<br />

parts of the world, and language is an important aspect<br />

of this. There remain big barriers to common<br />

understanding. Cultural diversity requires mutual<br />

respect before good social relations can be established<br />

and maintained. Improving communication makes this<br />

easier, and has been my first priority since I took<br />

responsibility for membership development on behalf<br />

of our Association.<br />

In sport, being fair is not just something it is nice<br />

to have: it is a must. Sport embraces not only<br />

athletes and players, but everybody involved:<br />

sponsors, clubs, coaches, managers, representatives,<br />

associations or federations… in summary, all of us<br />

involved one way or another in sports.<br />

Whatever we do must be done with absolute<br />

respect for fairness. Sport is not just a physical<br />

activity; it is also a social example, primarily for<br />

youth, and we must consider the consequences of<br />

our actions…


1996 TO 2000 25 YEARS OF <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

GREAT MOMENTS IN <strong>AIMS</strong> RACES<br />

■<br />

There have been many great <strong>AIMS</strong> races in the past 25 years<br />

and each <strong>AIMS</strong> event is unique in some way. Without<br />

devaluing any of these races one can probably say that there were<br />

three events in this period that drew worldwide attention even before<br />

the race took place. None of these related to any possible records by<br />

elite runners. They were the Berlin Marathon in 1990, the Boston<br />

Marathon in 1996 and the New York City Marathon in 2001.<br />

It was less than a year after the Berlin Wall <strong>–</strong> the symbol of<br />

the cold war between East and West <strong>–</strong> was breached when the<br />

Berlin Marathon stormed through the Brandenburg Gate on 30<br />

September 1990, three days before official reunification. The race<br />

attracted 25,000 runners<br />

from all over the world<br />

and media attention was<br />

unparalleled. Thousands<br />

more wanted to run but<br />

the entry limit was set at<br />

25,000. Many runners<br />

had tears in their eyes<br />

when, three kilometres<br />

after the start, they ran<br />

from West to East<br />

through the Brandenburg<br />

Gate.<br />

Six years later the<br />

Boston Marathon<br />

celebrated its centenary<br />

edition. Normally strict<br />

qualifying times are<br />

required for runners<br />

entering the Boston<br />

Marathon. But for the<br />

100th Boston Marathon<br />

on 15 April 1996<br />

organisers decided to<br />

open the event to all<br />

runners. The world’s<br />

Finish of the 100 th<br />

oldest city marathon<br />

then saw the biggest<br />

race so far at the<br />

distance: 38,706 runners<br />

from 105 nations were<br />

officially admitted to the race and 36,264 of them crossed the<br />

starting line in Hopkinton, of whom almost 99% finished. The figure<br />

of 35,868 finishers remained the highest ever recorded for a<br />

marathon for more than eight years.<br />

Another five years later New York was at the centre of<br />

worldwide media attention. Exactly 54 days after the September 11 th<br />

attacks the New York City Marathon was run, and broadcast all over<br />

the world. Immediately after the attacks on the World Trade Centre<br />

New York’s Race Director<br />

Allan Steinfeld had thought<br />

that the race could not take<br />

place, but he changed his<br />

opinion within days. One week<br />

later Steinfeld and the Mayor<br />

of New York, Rudolph Giuliani,<br />

pledged that the race would go<br />

ahead. This New York City<br />

Marathon on 4 November<br />

2001 was a remarkable and<br />

unique celebration of life, and<br />

a tremendous achievement for<br />

the sport of road running.<br />

T<br />

his was an exciting<br />

period for <strong>AIMS</strong>. Despite<br />

the tragedy of September<br />

11th 2001 in New York<br />

and its effects on the<br />

global economy <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

experienced rapid membership<br />

growth that year,<br />

followed by steady increases<br />

subsequently. The positive effects of<br />

road running were becoming widely<br />

appreciated and it was becoming<br />

more and more popular in more and<br />

more regions of the world. <strong>AIMS</strong> is<br />

in a position to assist in developing<br />

the sport even further. At our 25th<br />

anniversary we turn to our sponsors<br />

and supporters and thank them for<br />

all their help and support, without<br />

which <strong>AIMS</strong> could not work with<br />

such success.<br />

Held in March 2001 the 13th World Congress<br />

of <strong>AIMS</strong> was auspicious rather than unlucky.<br />

Organised by Turin Marathon race director Luigi<br />

Chiabrera and his staff at the StarHotel Majestic,<br />

the Turin Congress heralded a significant<br />

increase in membership later that year.<br />

Sports promoters tend to agree that<br />

sponsorship comes in more easily when<br />

economies are firmly in the black. As the<br />

second millennium closed boom conditions<br />

prevailed with economic indices at their<br />

highest ever levels, mostly driven by the hype<br />

surrounding the telecommunications and<br />

internet balloon.<br />

Then, at the beginning of 2001, economies<br />

came back to earth with a bump, if not a fullyfledged<br />

crash. Just as the global economy was<br />

assimilating the effects of the loss of confidence<br />

in new technologies the September 11th attacks<br />

came in and the entire world held its breath.<br />

Under these circumstances the New York City<br />

Marathon took centre stage, born again in its<br />

32nd edition.<br />

Anyone involved in road running will know<br />

what this race represents but at the time of the<br />

2001 race it took on huge global significance.<br />

Allan Steinfeld, his NYC Marathon team and the<br />

throngs of spectators on the streets mounted a<br />

spectacle on that first Sunday of November that<br />

year that I will always remember as one of the<br />

greatest things I have ever seen in my life.


Showing their respect<br />

for the victims<br />

of the September<br />

11 th attacks on<br />

New York and<br />

Washington runners<br />

of the Berlin<br />

Marathon held up a<br />

huge banner before<br />

the start of the race<br />

on 30 September<br />

2001. It read ‘United<br />

we run’ and<br />

showed the logos of<br />

the Berlin and New<br />

York races. New<br />

York’s race director<br />

Allan Steinfeld<br />

made a short<br />

speech to the runners<br />

before the start<br />

of the Berlin<br />

Marathon. The banner<br />

was then sent to<br />

New York and laid<br />

down next to the<br />

start of the New<br />

25 YEARS OF <strong>AIMS</strong> 2001 TO 2006<br />

Gripped by the TV images I admired the whole event<br />

and could not stop the tears flowing. I realised how<br />

much the marathon world was showing on that day.<br />

The NYC Marathon was taking place as usual, yes.<br />

But much more than that, the whole City of New<br />

York was alive more than ever, standing up and<br />

proud, having chosen the best possible face to show<br />

to the world.<br />

Beyond all previous expectations <strong>AIMS</strong> membership<br />

made a great leap forward in 2001. Was it an<br />

outgrowth of the Turin Congress? Was it due to a<br />

greater awareness of road running events in city<br />

administrations? Or was it a natural increase due to<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong> members effectively spreading the word about<br />

the Association’s aims and objectives? Most likely it<br />

was all of these factors taken together, but the<br />

outcome was that membership that year started at<br />

136 and jumped to 158.<br />

The increase in membership had great positive<br />

impact. Distance Running increased from two<br />

editions a year to three, and with content was<br />

enriched. In full colour throughout, with bigger<br />

articles and the greater availability of digital images<br />

from <strong>AIMS</strong> races, the magazine offered a better<br />

Allan Steinfeld has established a reputation as one of the world’s leading authorities on the technical<br />

aspects of road running. He developed methods that have become standard for marathons and<br />

races at various distances. Allan Steinfeld is a founding member of <strong>AIMS</strong>. He was appointed as the first<br />

chairman of the then newly formed <strong>AIMS</strong> Technical Committee.<br />

Allan Steinfeld, who was born in 1946, became a member of New York Road Runners (NYRR) in<br />

1963. In 1978, Fred Lebow hired him to assist in planning and executing New York Road Runners events.<br />

Steinfeld became the Technical Director of the New York City Marathon in 1981, the President of NYRR in<br />

1993, and CEO of NYRR and the Race Director of the New York City Marathon in 1994 following Lebow’s<br />

death. In April 2005 he stepped down from these positions and assumed the new roles of Vice Chairman<br />

of NYRR and the Executive Director of the ING New York City Marathon.<br />

Allan Steinfeld was the chief marathon referee for the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics. He has been<br />

technical advisor for the network television and world broadcasts of several Olympic Games, and serves as the consultant for television broadcasts<br />

of the NYC Marathon and other NYRRC races. He was a consultant to the 1984 Olympic Marathons, London, Los Angeles, Rio Marathons and<br />

many other races.<br />

In 1984 the World Cross Country Championships were held outside Europe for the first time. They took place at Meadowlands, New York,<br />

and Allan Steinfeld was the event director. He has also worked in track and field, as the meeting director for the IAAF Mobil Grand Prix events in<br />

New York City from 1989 <strong>–</strong> 1995 and as the competitions manager for the 1998 Goodwill Games.<br />

He earned a Master’s Degree in electrical engineering and radio astronomy from Cornell University in 1971, following a Bachelor’s<br />

Degree from City College of New York in 1969.

advertising opportunity<br />

for members. Further<br />

increases in membership<br />

allowed Distance Running to<br />

reach what was considered<br />

its natural position as a<br />

quarterly publication,<br />

beginning from January<br />

2005.<br />

As Distance Running was<br />

increasing its scope and<br />

reach customs restrictions<br />

imposed following the<br />

September 11th tragedy,<br />

first by the USA and later<br />

by other countries, created<br />

difficulties in providing<br />

some members with their<br />

magazines in good time<br />

and at minimal cost. This is<br />

an objective which is still<br />

being actively pursued by<br />

the <strong>AIMS</strong> Board and the magazine publisher.<br />

In Turin, the Niagara Falls Marathon had been<br />

chosen as host of the 14th World Congress of <strong>AIMS</strong>.<br />

Between these two congresses, the road running<br />

community had much discussion on the validity of<br />

world records in road races. <strong>AIMS</strong> debated these<br />

issues: should <strong>AIMS</strong> institute its own world records?<br />

Should a cash award be made to those attaining<br />

them? Should women’s records only be allowed in<br />

women-only races, as on the<br />

track? Finally, at the Niagara<br />

Congress, <strong>AIMS</strong> members voted<br />

to propose definite criteria to<br />

IAAF and ask them to adopt the<br />

concept of world records in<br />

road running, rather than what<br />

IAAF had previously called<br />

“world bests".<br />

Membership continued to grow<br />

steadily. At the end of 2002 it<br />

stood at 164; a year later it had<br />

reached 171. We saw that<br />

membership growth was<br />

bringing new demands, and that<br />

it was essential to accommodate these. Maintaining<br />

fast, clear communications with our members,<br />

requesting and providing information, and keeping<br />

records accurately updated were simple tasks that<br />

became complex only because they needed<br />

continuous attention. These new demands required<br />

the Board of directors to organise itself more<br />

effectively to properly address them.<br />

Elite marathon performances also strongly<br />

progressed during these years. The biggest events<br />

In Athens 2004, held in the searing heat of the<br />

afternoon, the women’s Olympic Marathon was one<br />

of the hardest ever run. Paula Radcliffe dropped out<br />

at 36km as Japanese runner Mizuki Noguchi won the<br />

race and the Olympic gold medal in 2:26:20 ahead of<br />

Catherine Ndereba. Similar to Naoko Takahsahi four<br />

WORLD RECORDS FOR ROAD RACES<br />

■<br />

One of the major achievements of <strong>AIMS</strong> was to suggest rules and then convince IAAF to officially establish world records in road running.<br />

This had been a delicate issue for almost a decade. Up to the official recognition of world records in 2003 by the IAAF Congress fastest<br />

times were listed as ‘world bests’ instead of world records. The description as ‘world best’ originated from times when measurement of courses<br />

was not at today’s standard and when there were no criteria set to establish the eligibility of a potentially record-breaking course<br />

The more professional road races became in terms of overall organisation (including measurement) the more they felt devalued by the<br />

‘threat’ of getting the fastest time officially reduced to merely a ‘world best’ instead of a world record. After an IAAF Council Meeting in 2002 it<br />

seemed that the governing body would stick to the term ‘world best’. Organisers of renowned marathon races in which the fastest times had been<br />

set then argued publicly and in conjunction with <strong>AIMS</strong> in favour of world records in road running. A proposal was adopted by the <strong>AIMS</strong> Congress<br />

at Niagara Falls in October 2002.<br />

The Congress decided that if IAAF did not establish world records at its 2003 Congress, <strong>AIMS</strong> would adopt and promote its own <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

WORLD RECORDS in marathons. <strong>AIMS</strong> members also agreed that only one women’s world record should be listed, which could be achieved<br />

in either a mixed or a women-only event. The allowable separation between start and finish was changed to 50% (from 30%) of the race distance<br />

in order to agree with changes that IAAF had already made.<br />

In the end the potentially confusing possibility of having IAAF World Bests and <strong>AIMS</strong> World Records was avoided. On 21 August 2003 IAAF<br />

Congress approved the recognition of official IAAF World Records in Road Races for the following events: 10km, 15km, 20km, Half Marathon,<br />

25km, 30km, Marathon, 100km and Ekiden Road Relay (with stages of 5km, 10km, 5km, 10km, 5km and 7.195km). <strong>AIMS</strong> President Hiroaki Chosa<br />

commented “<strong>AIMS</strong> welcomes the IAAF decision, taken at the Congress in Paris, to recognise ‘World Records’ in road racing subject to well-defined<br />

criteria for their ratification. […] We believe that this will enhance public appreciation of truly great performances”.


2001 TO 2006 25 YEARS OF <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

Championships in 2003 in Paris. In Helsinki two years<br />

later she finished as runner-up behind Paula Radcliffe,<br />

who finally won a gold medal in a major world<br />

championship <strong>–</strong> and set a championship record of<br />

2:20:57.<br />

Strong elite performances were accompanied<br />

by ever greater numbers participating in events and<br />

many new events being promoted. <strong>AIMS</strong> membership<br />

increased as a result, and new strategies had to<br />

be adopted to avoid growing pains and actively<br />

accommodate this growth. The 15th World Congress<br />

of <strong>AIMS</strong> was held in Valencia in February 2005 and<br />

attracted representation from more than 60 events.<br />

By the end of 2004 membership had jumped to more<br />

than 200. The joint <strong>AIMS</strong>-IAAF publication Distance<br />

Running had attained a readership of more than one<br />

million people. Taking these facts into account the<br />

Valencia Congress set up a marketing committee<br />

to improve our business<br />

control reporting, reinforce<br />

our course measurement<br />

policies, and expand<br />

communication channels<br />

to members, largely<br />

through a complete redesign<br />

of the <strong>AIMS</strong> website.<br />

The year 2005<br />

brought a mixture of<br />

good and bad news. The<br />

success of reaching a<br />

peak of 225 members was<br />

tempered by the resignation<br />

of the London<br />

Marathon, a founder<br />

member. Chicago Marathon<br />

followed in 2006 and<br />

Marseille-Cassis 20.3k classic Distance Running Archive<br />

New York also resigned a few months later. This was<br />

against the background of their formation of a separate<br />

grouping which they called the “World Marathon<br />

Majors” (along with Boston and Berlin which remained<br />

as <strong>AIMS</strong> members). This produced some real concern<br />

within our Association, but we remain convinced that<br />

a future rapprochement is possible, and necessary, to<br />

unify the road running community again.<br />

Worse news followed. Sue Richardson, one of<br />

the most popular staff members of IAAF and a great<br />

friend of <strong>AIMS</strong>, was laid to rest in Monaco on<br />

Tuesday, 5th September. Headed by Lamine Diack,<br />

President of IAAF, colleagues and friends came from<br />

around the world. These included John Disley, cofounder<br />

of the London Marathon, Hugh Jones and<br />

myself representing <strong>AIMS</strong>, Mario Kadiks from the<br />

Rotterdam Marathon and David Bedford and Nick<br />

Bitel from the London Marathon, where Sue started<br />

her life in athletics administration. IAAF General<br />

Secretary Pierre Weiss gave a heartfelt appreciation<br />

of a highly professional woman, heavily involved in<br />

many aspects of IAAF, helpful, considerate,<br />

knowledgeable and funny. She had also a crucial role<br />

in relations between IAAF and <strong>AIMS</strong>. As she used to<br />

say, her family was the whole athletics community.<br />

I am sure she would have been happy to see that<br />

representatives from all entities of athletics,<br />

including her closest friends from IAAF, <strong>AIMS</strong> and<br />

London were there to give her the last tribute.<br />

A positive move in 2006 was the start of the<br />

new <strong>AIMS</strong>/ChampionChip Innovation Award,<br />

designed to reward innovation in race organisation.<br />

This fits neatly alongside <strong>AIMS</strong>’ traditional<br />

objectives to exchange information, knowledge and<br />

expertise among members. A jury will determine<br />

made at the 16th World Congress of <strong>AIMS</strong> in Xiamen<br />

in March <strong>2007</strong>.<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong> is currently in good health because both<br />

our sponsors and our members are strongly behind<br />

our activities, and because our relationship with<br />

IAAF is based on professionalism, transparency and<br />

reliability, and works smoothly.<br />

Our gratitude and respect goes to the sponsors,<br />

who support our association. ASICS has been the<br />

most important sponsor over the whole period, but<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong> received significant additional support from<br />

Konica (latterly Konica-Minolta Holdings), Citizen,<br />

Rohm, and Sammy (latterly Sega-Sammy).<br />

ChampionChip has become an increasingly<br />

significant source of support and has recently taken<br />

the role of presenting sponsor, aside from their<br />

additional input to the Innovation Award. We also<br />

thank our supporting sponsors: Marathon-<br />

this award involves the entire membership of <strong>AIMS</strong>:<br />

235 events spread among 80 countries and<br />

territories. Winners are presented at one of the <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

events held during the following year.<br />

We are and will be grateful to the IAAF for their<br />

friendship and their appreciation of the particular<br />

expertise that <strong>AIMS</strong> can offer on road running<br />

matters. As the world governing body for athletics<br />

IAAF has our total commitment and support. It is a<br />

source of pride that such a good relationship has<br />

been built up, based on our common objective of<br />

serving the sport of distance running to the best of<br />

our knowledge and ability.<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong> is a member-centred organisation. The<br />

reason for which <strong>AIMS</strong> was created, and for which<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong> will always work, is to provide members with a<br />

platform from which they can better develop and<br />

promote their events. For the last few years the bulk<br />

of <strong>AIMS</strong>’ income has been derived from membership<br />

dues, so that <strong>AIMS</strong> has in a way become its own<br />

main sponsor. This gives us all the more reason to<br />

firmly adhere to the objectives set in our Articles of<br />

Association: to foster and promote road running<br />

throughout the world, to work with IAAF on road<br />

running matters, and to exchange knowledge and<br />

expertise between members.<br />

Our aim is a never ending task. Running<br />

is our sport; this is what we love, and serving<br />

this cause allows us to walk tall and proud.<br />

Improving the accuracy, safety and security<br />

of courses, improving doping controls,<br />

promoting children’s races and similar<br />

endeavours, extending knowledge of race<br />

organisation, listening to our members,<br />

looking for innovations which would help<br />

our work and facilitate communications <strong>–</strong> all<br />

these are important aspects of our overall<br />

task. In summary, <strong>AIMS</strong> accepts the<br />

challenge of continuously striving for<br />

improvement, which is what is implied in the<br />

Olympic motto “faster, higher, stronger...”


2001 TO 2006 25 YEARS OF <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

RUNNING INTO THE FUTURE<br />

■<br />

As a worldwide organisation <strong>AIMS</strong> embraces a<br />

very wide range of running events spread all<br />

over the world. Among its 235-strong membership<br />

some races are held in highly developed cities and<br />

attract tens of thousands of runners. Others are held in<br />

more remote locations against a background of general<br />

poverty. Despite the huge differences between races<br />

each of them is a celebration of life through running and<br />

they share more in common than marks them apart.<br />

The growing realisation of running as a<br />

common cause throughout the world has led to many<br />

links being established between races, for which <strong>AIMS</strong><br />

provides a forum. Organising this more formally,<br />

around particular issues, can capture the attention of a<br />

wider public, as some commercial ventures in the field<br />

had demonstrated over the previous two years. As a<br />

result, <strong>AIMS</strong> launched the Children’s Series at the<br />

beginning of 2006, to assist member races in<br />

promoting running among children.<br />

<strong>AIMS</strong> President Hiroaki Chosa said: “Many great<br />

athletes have often emerged against great adversity.<br />

We are seeking to encourage more young children to<br />

follow their dreams and to aim for a healthy life.” The<br />

member races involved in this pilot project were the<br />

Sahara Marathon in Algeria, the Kathmandu Peace Run<br />

in Nepal and the Great Ethiopian Run in Addis Ababa.<br />

The specific intention was to support races in<br />

poorer countries since a number of big international race organisers in wealthier countries had already included children’s races alongside their<br />

main events. This was for example done with great success in London, Stockholm and Berlin. In the German capital about 10,000 pupils participate<br />

in the Mini Marathon staged in parallel with the Berlin Marathon.<br />

The first event of the <strong>AIMS</strong> project was met with great enthusiasm. “The children’s race was something awesome” wrote Mattia Durli.<br />

“Almost 1000 kids took part in the 800m race, divided by age groups and according to schools. Each child ran with the <strong>AIMS</strong> Children’s Series<br />

t-shirt and received the medal at the end. All this took place against the background of severe flooding only two weeks before the races. The race<br />

raised morale, along with 12,000 euros for the projected sports centre.”<br />

The second stage took place in Nepal on 22 October, in association with the Samsung Kathmandu 5km Peace Run. Setting off from the<br />

City Hall building, with the temples and stupas of Durbar Square in the background, the combined field created a long snaking trail along New<br />

Road around Ratna Park and then eastward out to Baneshwor, to finish<br />

at the gates of the gigantic Birendra International Convention Centre.<br />

There were three age groups, each divided into boys’ and girls’<br />

categories, identified by a letter code to pick them out at the finish line. After<br />

unseasonal showers in the preceding days and in the afternoon after the<br />

race, the sun smiled on the runners. So much so that despite starting at 8<br />

am it was already warm by the time the front runners finished. The first few<br />

of them had serious expressions, but soon the grounds of the convention<br />

centre filled up with smiling runners, proudly sporting their medals and<br />

clutching their certificates as they tucked into their breakfast packs.<br />

The <strong>AIMS</strong> Children’s Series 2006 was rounded off in Addis Ababa<br />

on 25 November, by a series of four separate races conducted the day<br />

before the 6th © Great Ethiopian Run<br />

Toyota Great Ethiopian Run 10km. The size of the fields<br />

were limited in this inaugural event to a total of 3,000 runners split into<br />

boys and girls and two age categories. The size of the competitors varied<br />

from tiny through small to medium. In the under 8s events some serious<br />

racing went on up front, but the tiny kids trailing in their wake ran the whole way. The start and finish were located in the huge amphitheatre<br />

surrounding Meskal Square. The course was 1200m in length, comprising a lap of Meskal Square and an out and back section up a testing slope.<br />

As parents dashed from one side of the square to the other to catch the action the kids concentrated their efforts admirably; coming back<br />

into the Square for the long curving run-in to the finish they showed easy form and complete awareness of what was required. In the under 11s<br />

girls’ race the first three finishers all ran barefoot.<br />

After crossing the finish line each participant was awarded a drink and a bottle, biscuits and a medal, as race officials ticked their<br />

T-shirts as a receipt. Gradually the Square filled up with kids basking in the sunshine, laughing and chatting with friends and sporting<br />

the spoils of their participation.<br />

An award ceremony was held at which the top three in each category received plaques from a trio of distinguished personages: Carolina<br />

Klüft, Sonia O’Sullivan and race patron Haile Gebrselassie.<br />

The original Series venues will be revisited in <strong>2007</strong>, and the list may be expanded to cover other races. ASICS, a major longtime sponsor<br />

of <strong>AIMS</strong>, is developing direct input into the programme and a separate “runners help runners” element is being introduced.<br />
