Researchers at The University of Chicago, Graduate School of Business are conducting a study on the relationship between marathon performance and satisfaction. We are looking for anyone participating in the following 2008 marathons: San Francisco or Chicago.
Participants will complete 2-3 online surveys, each taking 10 minutes or less to complete. The first survey will take place approximately 5 to 2 weeks prior to the marathon, with the final survey taking place after the marathons.
All participants will be entered into a random drawing for prizes including an 8 GB iPod Nano, a Garmin Forerunner 305 GPS watch, and a Bose SoundDock Digital Sound System.
For more information and to register, please visit our website at: http://faculty.chicagogsb.edu/george.wu/marathon/
Please feel free to contact marathonstudy@lists.chicagogsb.edu if you have any questions.

How do you measure satisfaction?

I would assume simple yes/no answers, like, "were you happy with the outcome of your race today?" Or, "would more live music along the course have made it more enjoyable?"
