Answer:

Mariah trained for months leading up to the marathon and won. Her sole motivation was that after seeing her winning the marathon, her friends and family would call her as motivated and athletic. It means that Mariah wanted to fulfill her esteem needs.

Explanation:

According to Abraham Maslow:

Safety needs includes the personal security, the safety of health, resources and property. etc.

Physiological needs falls at the lowest level of basic needs. It includes food, water, rest. etc which are necessary for an individual's survival.

Esteem includes the need of respect and self-confidence.

Cognitive needs includes the desire of knowledge, to know things, to know what is happening and why is it happening around you.

In Mariah's case, she needed respect and motivation and thus she was trying to fulfill her esteem needs by winning the marathon.
