Official Bolder Boulder Results In

The official BB results are up two days after the race.  Yesterday, the BB Web team implemented most of my suggestions (not necessarily due to my suggestioning them–they are pretty obvious, I think).  And a bit after noon yesterday, they had the results up.  I downloaded my offical time and splits to compare.

Mile 1:    00:07:24
Mile 2:    00:07:38
Mile 3:    00:07:59
Mile 4:    00:07:55
Mile 5:    00:07:31
Mile 6:    00:08:01
Total Time:    00:48:07
