Shamrock 8K Race Results
Yesterday, I ran in the shamrock 8K. This was the longest distance I had run in a race situation, so I'm pretty pleased with my results. My goal was 50 minutes, but I really wasn't sure if that was realistic. Plus, I was running with my sister who has only been running for a few weeks now.
But....the weather was awesome! A little cool when we started out, but quickly warmed up (or was that me???). My sister got about 1.5 miles out and started walking...swooing me ahead. I ran the whole thing without problem.
I stayed at a consistent pace, which I was happy about, and here are my results....
Overall Rank: 2631 out of 4920
Chip Time: 52:46.80
Race Pace: 10:38
Gun Time: 56:01.60
Age Ranking: 142 out of 311
Gender Ranking: 1201 out of 2866
Pics are posted in my profile album. OH! And in the pics are Joe Green from here. He, too, did really well....just a few seconds behind me.

Congrats on a great race. 5,000 people for an 8K is huge. It's no wonder that it took you 4 minutes to cross the start line. In my 5K it took 4 seconds. I checked. Way to go. Nice to see Mean Joe out there.
