Abstract in Portuguese
O crescimento da população idosa associado ao aumento da expectativa de vida, trouxe consigo alguns desafios. Além da necessidade de compreender melhor esse fenômeno e as características inerentes ao envelhecimento, a busca por estratégias que fomentem um envelhecimento ativo e saudável são cada vez mais necessárias, nesse sentido a prática de exercício físico, especialmente quando realizada ao longo da vida, permite ganhos que englobam aspectos biopsicossociais e que contribuem para um envelhecimento com mais qualidade de vida. Nesse sentido, a presente pesquisa teve como objetivo analisar aspectos relacionados ao motivo de prática entre corredores de meia maratona e maratona e verificar as características quanto ao desempenho e estilo de vida, em diferentes faixas etárias. Para isso foi adotado o método misto de triangulação concomitante, sendo a coleta dos dados quantitativos feito através de questionários sociodemográfico, esportivo e de estilo de vida, e o instrumento IMPRAF-18, os dados qualitativos foram coletados através de entrevista semiestruturada. Os dados quantitativos foram analisados através de análises descritivas, Teste de Kruskal Wallis com correção de Bonferroni, as entrevistas foram analisadas conforme a Tecnica de Análise de Conteúdo de Bardin. Participaram dessa pesquisa 281 pessoas, com média de idade 43,15 anos (DP = 11,04), com predomínio de indivíduos autodeclarados de cor branca (n = 191, 67,97%), casado (a) (n = 136, 48,39%), com especialização completa (n = 94, 33,45%) e renda superior a 10 salários-mínimos (n = 60, 21,70%). A saúde foi elencada como o principal, seguida das variáveis prazer, controle de estresse, sociabilidade, competitividade e estética, sendo encontrado diferenças entre algumas faixas etárias nas dimensões estética e prazer. Foi observado que a corrida contribuiu para a adoção de hábitos mais saudáveis. Quanto ao desempenho, houve tendência da diminuição ao longo da idade. Os corredores entrevistados também apontaram a vontade de manter essa prática esportiva ao longo da vida, ressaltando que o fator idade não é limitante para isso. Os achados dessa pesquisa apontam que a corrida contribui para mudanças que reverberam no envelhecimento mais ativo e saudável

Abstract in English
The growth of the older people population associated with increasing life expectancy has brought with it some challenges. In addition to the need to understand better this phenomenon and the inherent characteristics of aging, the search for strategies that encourage active and healthy aging is increasingly necessary, in this sense the practice of physical exercise, especially when performed throughout life, allows gains that encompass biopsychosocial aspects and that contribute to aging with better quality of life. In this sense, this research aimed to analyze aspects related to the reason for the practice among half marathon and marathon runners and verify the characteristics regarding performance and lifestyle, in different age groups. For this, the mixed method of concurrent triangulation was adopted, with the collection of quantitative data being done through sociodemographic, sports, and lifestyle questionnaires, and the IMPRAF-18 instrument, qualitative data were collected through semi-structured interviews. Quantitative data were analyzed through descriptive analysis, Kruskal Wallis Test with Bonferroni correction, and interviews were analyzed according to Bardin's Content Analysis Technique. 281 people participated in this research, with a mean age of 43.15 years (SD = 11.04), with a predominance of self-declared white individuals (n = 191, 67.97%), married (n = 136, 48.39%), with complete specialization (n = 94, 33.45%) and income above 10 minimum wages (n = 60, 21.70%). Health was listed as the main one, followed by the variables pleasure, stress control, sociability, competitiveness, and aesthetics, with differences being found between some age groups in the aesthetic and pleasure dimensions. It was observed that running contributed to the adoption of healthier habits. As for performance, there was a tendency to decrease with age. The runners interviewed also indicated the desire to maintain this sport throughout their lives, emphasizing that the age factor is not a limiting factor for this. The findings of this research indicate that running contributes to changes that reverberate in more active and healthy aging
