Abstract

The purpose of this study is to determine the motivational factors of participation in Storm Sweat Run 2018. 260 runners from University of Putra Malaysia were involved as the main respondent in this study. For the purpose of the study, the questionnaire was adapted and adopted from Motivations of Marathoners Scales (MOMS) developed by Masters & Ogles (1993). The result showed the highest mean score for motivational factors was "achievement factors" (M = 4.45, SD = 0.55). The result showed there is a significant difference in motivational factors between gender. Therefore, based on the result, there was a significant difference in the scores for male (M = 4.07, SD= 0.54) and female (M = 3.96, SD= 0.26) groups; t (2.16) = 218,p = .03. The result showed there is a significant difference in motivational factors between age. Therefore, based on the result, there was a significant difference of age at the p < .05 level for three groups [ F (2, 257) = 4.82, p = .009]. Overall, by identifying the motivational factors among runners the results of the study will allow a reappraisal of how to increase the participation in marathon events.
