Great Aloha Run
2006 Great Aloha Run
Here's how I trained for the 2006 Great Aloha Run. My goal was to beat my previous record (50:36) and finish in the top 100. I was worried about my time because I was battling a nasty head cold. I finished in 51:22. I was 51st overall (out of 22330 entrants and 16,425 finishers). I was the 49th male to finish, and 5th in my age division (out of 995).
Complete results can be found here.
I am also pleased to report that I came in 1st place in the Farmer-Male category (results here; scroll down to the Farmer section).
Note: The decimal places are seconds, not hundredths of minutes. It was too hard to figure out how to do seconds in Excel (of course, what do you expect from Microsoft products?). So, for example, if you see 20.50, that means 20 minutes and 50 seconds, and not 20 minutes and 30 seconds.
