The purpose of this study is to know how affects the time of evaluation of the reasons and the psychological state of the popular runners in the days prior to the race or on the same day of the race. The sample was composed of 473 popular runners (374 men and 99 women) participating in two popular 10 km races and half marathon, men had a mean of 30,28 age and a standard deviation (SD) from 8.13 and women an average of age of 31,70 and SD of 8.45. The study is based on a quantitative methodology, and its design was descriptive, observational, and correlation. For the evaluation of the personal variables and socio-demographic was prepared ad hoc self-report questionnaire; and to evaluate anxiety prior to the competition was used to the CSAI-2R by Andrade, Lois y Arce (2007). The results suggest that runners who filled out the questionnaire prior to the race day presented higher scores in cognitive anxiety, and runners who completed the questionnaire on the same day had higher scores in somatic anxiety and confidence. It is discussed on the relations of these variables with other personal, sport and sociodemographic, as well as on the applicability of the results and someconclusions of the study are indicated.
