Had a good time at the "Earn Your Turkey" Thanksgiving Day Race.
First mile was in 7:15. (Had problems with my watch after the first mile, so I don't know remaining split times. Didn't feel like messing with it during the race.)
Paced with a girl almost the entire way (noticed her a few hundred meters into the race). Pumped myself up at mile 2.5 to beat her. The last mile was awful, but beat her by 5 seconds. I was surprised that I was fast enough this year to take first place for my age division! Between me and my two kidlet racers, we came home with 3 free turkey vouchers and 2 free Village Inn pie vouchers! Happy Day. Below is my personal race results from SRC Events:
There were 65 finishers in the Female 30 to 34 age group and 569 finishers in the race.
My overall finish place was 66th for the 4 miler (but 15th overall female finisher!). My age group finish place was 1st (females 30-34). My overall finish percentile was 12 while my age group percentile was 2. My time of 27:21.5 gave me a 6:50 pace per mile. |
