A stochastic frontier approach to running performance

Long-distance running performance depends on age of the runner and race distance. In this paper we apply a stochastic frontier approach to estimate optimal running performance across distances from 5000 m up to and including the marathon. We present age correction factors for 5000, 10000 and 15000 m...
