Well, six days after the race, they had the results posted, and it took me about that long to blog about it.
For the 10K, 86 (40 male, 46 female) finished. In my age group (40-44), I finished 7th out of 11 males and 8th for the whole age group. Overall, I finished 36th with an official time of 56:10, a 9:03 pace. I blogged earlier that my "unofficial" time was 55:08, at a 9:02 pace (actually it was an 8:54 pace - I put 6.1 miles when it should have been 6.2 miles for my calculation). Well, that really doesn't matter, because officially, it was 56:10 (9:03). The top male in the age group was at 42:39. The overall 10K winner finished in 36:37.
For the 5K, 106 (42 m, 64 f) finished. I was the second male finisher in the age group of 8 males and 3rd for the whole age group of 15. (The woman that finished ahead of me was the #1 woman overall). I finished 31st overall with a time of 28:40, a 9:14 pace. I had my time as 27:13, an 8:47 pace. The top male in my age group finished with a time of 21:52 and placed 5th overall. A big gap between 1 and 2 in our age group. The overall winner finished in 18:46.
I read in the reviews of the race that a couple of people said the 5K had timing problems. One person even thought the timing was off by five minutes. I was off only by about a minute-and-a-half, but I sure thought my time was better.
The also posted "combined results" for runners that ran both races. Seventeen people did so - 11 males and 6 females. I was the 8th male and 10th overall with a time of 1:24:29. The leader's time was 1:04:29.
