Fastest marathon times achievable based on extreme value statistics
Marathons are one of the ultimate challenges of human endeavor. In this paper, we apply extreme value statistics to predict fastest marathon times achievable for ten marathons around the world and for both men and women. We concentrate on the theoretical minimum time for each gender at each venue, irrespective of who runs there. Thus, we measure the potential of each marathon, not the actual performance of the runners.

Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications
Recognized by the European Physical Society
Physica A publishes research in the field of statistical mechanics and its applications.
Statistical mechanics sets out to explain the behaviour of macroscopic systems by studying the statistical properties of their microscopic constituents.
Applications of the techniques of statistical mechanics are widespread, and include: applications to physical systems such as solids, liquids and gases; applications to chemical and biological systems (colloids, interfaces, complex fluids, polymers and biopolymers, cell physics); and other interdisciplinary applications to for instance biological, economical and sociological systems.
