My work puts on a 5K run and 2 mile walk every year. We have changed the venue so today at my lunch break I ran the new course with one of my work running friends. I was hoping she would bring her garmin and we could plot the course exactly, but we just estimated where we needed to start and end. I think it was more like 3 1/2 instead of 3.1 (I guess we will need to run it again) She is a slower runner then me (if you can imagine that) so it was just a nice easy run.

3.5 in 36:27

I will get some more miles in and post the total after work.

So I ran 4 more miles after work. I think I could have done more, but I had some tummy trouble so I guess it was time to stop. Boy we were sure slow at lunch LOL.

4 miles in 36:39

Total miles 7.5

Total time 1:12:66 ?? I think I have bad math

You finished in 158th place out 655 women in Ogden. That would put you in the top 25% in the group of women that were confident enough in their fitness to try a marathon. It would be safe to assume that Ogden marathon stats are representative of the speed distribution in the state of Utah. With that assumption, 75% of the women that would try a marathon would be slower than you. And that is in a state of Utah where people are more fit than the national average.
