My official results are in and I was one second (under 53min-1sec) and one place better than yesterday’s text advised.

You will recall that my goal was to finish in the top 3/4 of the field (or not come last).

The numbers translate into finishing in the top
Overall: 70%
Category (women’s 40-49): 66%
Gender: 68%

Hurrah!!

The women’s category winners (as a point of comparison):
40-49 = 29:50
50-59 = 35:47
60-69 = 39:02
70+ = 50:42!!!

Completely amazing! I totally want to be those women when I grow up.
