Corrected race results

by Andrea Hill on January 19, 2009 · Comments

in General

I submitted a request to review my results, since the mobile version of the results showed:
Gun Start: 7:40:56
Chip Start: 7:39:47
(as though I had started running before the gun went off).

I got back an email, they adjusted my time, so it turns out I managed to squeak out a 5 second PR!

updated race results

The times now are more in line with my watch (I knew it was 1:40:xx at the half, which is a half PR!), so I definitely feel a bit better about the race. A 5 second PR is still a PR!

  • congrats on the pr! always awesome to pr, no matter how big or small. and a 1:40 half in a marathon.... i dunno a 1:37 doesn't sound that far off to me!

    thanks Bridget! However, it's not really any better than I did in Chicago 3 years ago. I don't think the altitude has really had much effect.

    How are you??

    Not a bad run Miss Hill!!! Traing at altitude suits you.
  • Yay! So glad about that.

    At Disney the week before, the same thing happened with my times: gun time was faster than chip time. Unfortunately, they corrected it so I was slower :(
  • That's really great. Think of all the people who have faced this issue, but never make an effort to follow-up. The "hard work" paid off.

    We noticed that too! I did enjoy the image of you just taking off out of the gate 30 seconds before everyone else. :)
