Fish Out of Water

Musings and observations about life from an East Coast native now living on the Left Coast in the California State Capitol since 2004. This fish has made her home 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); and 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
