Fish Out of Water

Musings about life & travel from an East Coast native living on the Left Coast in the CA State Capitol since 2004 and now also spending time at a home-away-from-home in Evanston, IL. This fish has lived in Madison, WI (7 years); Portland, OR (2 years); Las Vegas, NV (7 months); Middlebury, VT (3 summers); Marne-la-Vallee, a small town east of Paris, France (6 months); Middletown, CT (3 years); & Marshfield, MA, the fish's coastal hometown 40 miles south of Boston (17 years).

1/2 Marathon Stats

For those of you who may be interested (and thanks to LNJ for asking), I finally found the official results for the Sacramento 1/2 Marathon from this past Sunday, so here's how I finished:

Total time - 1:54:43
Chip time - 1:53:53
Pace - 8:42
Overall rank - 190 of 668
Division rank (W 30-34) - 12 of 65

I'm quite pleased with these results, especially compared to previous races. For example, here are the stats for the first 1/2 marathon I did (Mad City with E in 2002):

Total time - 1:49:10
Pace - 8:49
Overall rank - 541 of 1102
Division rank (W 25-29) - 32

NOTE - Yes, the total time for this race was 5 minutes less than for the Sac 1/2 marathon, but that's because the course was measured incorrectly! Instead of being a regulation 13.1 miles, a last-minute change in the start location made the course only 12.4 miles. Oops!

And of course the stats for our first ever full marathon (Mad City with E in 2004 as our final farewell to the lovely Mad Town):

Total time - 4:26:14
Chip time - 4:25:31
Pace - 10:08
Time @ 1/2 - 2:11:24
Overall rank - 651 of 938
Gender rank - 180 of 335
