Overview
Introduction: Mega sporting events not only promote physical activity but also offer opportunities to encourage environmentally sustainable behaviors. The Tokyo Marathon, as one of the World Marathon Majors, provides a unique context to examine how runners’ environmental awareness and motivational drivers influence transport behavior and engagement in physical activity. Understanding these behavioral patterns is crucial for integrating sustainability with health promotion in large-scale sporting events. Methodology: Guided by the Theory of Planned Behavior, this study surveyed 300 runners of diverse ages, nationalities, and experience levels using an online questionnaire. Key constructs measured included Environmental Awareness (EA), Runner Attitude (RA), Perceived Behavioral Control (PBC), Subjective Norms (SN), Green Marathon Perceived Quality (PQ), and Physical Activity (PA). Followed by Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to examine hypothesized relationships among variables. Discussion: Results indicate that EA significantly predicts PBC, RA, and PQ, highlighting the role of environmental knowledge in shaping attitudes and perceptions of event quality. Physical activity is significantly influenced by PBC and RA, while SN and PQ show no significant effect. These findings emphasize the importance of intrinsic motivation and perceived behavioral control over social influence or perceived event quality in promoting sustainable and active transport behaviors. Conclusions: Enhancing environmental awareness and fostering positive attitudes can effectively encourage eco-friendly and health-promoting behaviors in mega sporting events, offering actionable insights for event organizers, policymakers, and sport tourism planners aiming to combine sustainability with participant well-being. Introducción: Los eventos deportivos de gran escala no solo promueven la actividad física, sino que también fomentan comportamientos sostenibles. El Maratón de Tokio, como uno de los World Marathon Majors, ofrece un contexto ideal para analizar cómo la conciencia ambiental y los factores motivacionales de los corredores influyen en el transporte y la actividad física. Metodología: Basado en la Teoría del Comportamiento Planificado, se encuestaron 300 corredores de diversas edades, nacionalidades y niveles de experiencia mediante un cuestionario en línea. Se midieron Conciencia Ambiental (EA), Actitud del Corredor (RA), Control Conductual Percibido (PBC), Normas Subjetivas (SN), Calidad Percibida del Maratón Verde (PQ) y Actividad Física (PA). Los datos se analizaron con Análisis Factorial Confirmatorio (CFA) y Modelado de Ecuaciones Estructurales (SEM). Discusión: Los resultados muestran que EA predice significativamente PBC, RA y PQ. La actividad física está influida por PBC y RA, mientras que SN y PQ no son significativos. Esto resalta la relevancia de la motivación intrínseca y el control percibido sobre la influencia social o la calidad percibida del evento para promover transporte activo y sostenible. Conclusiones: Incrementar la conciencia ambiental y fomentar actitudes positivas puede impulsar comportamientos ecológicos y saludables en eventos deportivos de gran escala, ofreciendo recomendaciones prácticas para organizadores y responsables de políticas.

Os dados são analisados ​​com Análise Fatorial Confirmatória (CFA) e Modelação de Economias Estruturais (SEM). Discussão: Os resultados mostram que o EA prevê significativamente o PBC, o RA e o PQ. A atividade física é influenciada pelo PBC e RA, enquanto o SN e o PQ não são significativos. Isto realça a relevância da motivação intrínseca e o controlo percebido sobre a influência social ou a qualidade percebida do evento para promover o transporte ativo e sustentável. Conclusões: Aumentar a consciência ambiental e fomentar atitudes positivas pode impulsionar comportamentos ecológicos e saludáveis ​​em eventos desportivos de grande escala, oferecendo recomendações práticas para organizadores e responsáveis ​​por políticas.
