thanksgiving day 5K results

it took all day, but the results for the lawrence thanksgiving day 5K race were finally posted online.

i ended up 14th out of 32 men in my age group with an official time of 24:12.5. the fastest of the 40-44 males came in at 18:28.3. my wife's official time was 35:10.9 which was right at what we saw when she passed under the timing arch. that means they went on gun time rather than chip time. she was 31st out of 36 in her group.

since they didn't post results in a way that was easy to figure out where i placed overall, i tried to figure it out on the photographer's site but lost track. then i went back to the results page and counted all the people who finished with a better time. there were 25 females ahead of me and 108 males. that puts me in 134th place out of 733. not bad, but there's room for improvement.
