The outcome of a prominent annual road race held in Washington, D.C., provides data including finishing times, placements, and participant statistics. This information is typically organized by categories such as gender, age group, and sometimes nationality. An example would be a listing showing the overall winner’s time, the top three finishers in each age bracket, and the average finishing time for all participants.
Access to this competitive data offers valuable insights for runners, coaches, and race organizers. Runners can gauge their performance against others, identify areas for improvement, and track their progress over time. Coaches can use the data to analyze training effectiveness and develop individualized plans for athletes. Race organizers benefit from understanding participation trends, which informs logistical planning and future race strategies. The historical record of these outcomes provides a valuable longitudinal perspective on running performance and the evolution of the sport itself.
