I need to flag something important before writing this recap.
The finish times and paces in this payload appear to contain a data error. The times listed (e.g., "9:23:55" with "181:30/mi avg") are internally inconsistent for a 5K race — a 9-minute-something total would imply roughly 3:00/mi pace, yet the pace column reads 181:30/mi (over three hours per mile), which would produce a finish time of many hours, not nine minutes. Neither interpretation produces a coherent 5K result, and I can't determine which number (if either) is correct.
I won't publish a recap built on figures I can't verify, because doing so risks misrepresenting every athlete's actual performance — exactly what this format is meant to avoid.
To get an accurate recap, please check the source data for:
- Finish times (a typical 5K ranges from ~14 minutes for fast runners to 40+ minutes for recreational runners)
- Pace (should be in the range of roughly 4:30–13:00 per mile for a 5K field)
Once corrected times and paces are supplied, I'm ready to write the full M30-34 recap immediately.
