The results are in.
800 out of 909 people
111 in my division out of 127 people (I would just like to add that I beat at least 2, 27 year olds!
Official time 44:04 Pace 14:13 per mile.
I think the time is a little off though, because when we all went to stand at the start, being my first race and all I was in the crowd of people and this buff guy turns to me and says "Oh you run a 5 minute mile???"
I was stunned and I asked for clarification and was explained they have mile markers in the pack and that I should find the one with the time/pace for the miles I will be running.
I laugh out loud then start walking to the back of the pack. THE WAY BACK with all the strollers and little kids. And it took FOREVER (well with 909 people) to get all the way to where it actually starts.
So my time was better than 44:04 is all I am saying...

If they did not have chip timers, then you are dead right. With that many people it can take 2 to 4 minutes to get up to the start line. Loved the visual of you laughing and then moving back, w-a-y back. Sounds like me, I get freaked out thinking of starting in the front.
