I totally forgot to blog about my FAVORITE part of running! The Splits! I think it’s so fun to analyze data!
But first, a little background info on Monday’s race:
- The temperature was 47* at the start and 60* at the finish! Absolutely perfect. A lot of people PR’d this year. It was awesome.
- The Boston Marathon goes through 8 different towns
- This year, the Boston Marathon had the most women they’ve ever had.
- The average age of runners was 41.5 (that gives me hope for the future!)
- The winner, Robert Kiprono Cheruiyot, broke the course record for the fastest finish ever!
