Here, for the first time is a year-by-year list of the marathons that provide the highest percentage of Boston Marathon qualifying times and those that create the most Boston Marathon qualifying times. Statistics are interesing as always...

   Extractions: Spectators watch the start of the Chicago Marathon. The brutally hot marathon that descended into disarray this weekend — with hundreds in the field of 36,000 runners vomiting or collapsing by the roadside — has raised questions about whether marathons have become too big and too greedy. CHICAGO - There are young ones, old ones, thin ones and fat ones. Some show up in chicken suits, others in G-strings. There are highly trained athletes, of course, but also many people who look like a starting line is, well, the last place they should be. These days, big-city marathons cast an increasingly wide net, drawing tens of thousands of serious and not-so-serious runners to prestigious races in New York, Chicago, Boston and elsewhere. The incentive to draw as many people as possible is clear enough: The 26.2-mile marathons generate millions of dollars for cities that host them, as well as for the sporting-goods industry.

    Extractions: Frozen Head State Park, Tennessee Barkley flyover The runners climb 1500 ft. in the first mile up Bird Mountain, the first of many big hills on the first loop of the 2001 Barkley. Descending the north side of Bird Mountain, the trail isn't so nice any more. In fact, it hasn't been maintained for 50 years. Debra Moore tears a page out of Book 1, A Time to Die . You have to retrieve a page out of all 9 books to verify that you completed the 20 mile loop. The North Boundary Trail has many blowdowns to climb over, under, and around. Son of a Bitch Ditch, 10 feet wide and 10 feet deep. Matt Mahoney at the Coal Ponds. Climbing to the Garden Spot and Book 2. Descending Leonard's Butt Slide. The first few hundred feet are on muddy slopes at a 45 degree angle down to book 3. Bill Johnson starts climbing Little Hell at book 4, 1500 vertical feet in 0.6 miles at a 50% grade. The climb usually takes about an hour. Stu Gleman at the top of Hell. Book 5 is Southern Discomfort . (Photo courtesy of Peter Schuler). Rat Jaw climbs 1000 feet in 1/2 mile under some powerlines and past some abandoned coal mines. The ground is covered with mats of cut-down sawbriers. In some places there is a downed powerline that can be used as a climbing rope. Otherwise you have to climb with your hands, and the thorns draw blood.

    Extractions: D ue to potential health risks, police and health officials attempted time and time again to shut down these contests. Two contestants literally danced to their deaths right on the dance floor. The dangers, however, did not stop couples from participating, nor spectators from coming to witness others dance themselves to utter exhaustion. The competitions continued on until the early 1940s. For the unemployed, these tests of stamina and displays of fatigue provided an escape from the dreariness and hopelessness of The Depression.
