The outcome of the annual ultramarathon held in Brazos Bend State Park provides valuable data for runners, race organizers, and the broader ultrarunning community. This information typically includes finishing times for each participant, categorized by gender and age group, as well as details such as course records and Did Not Finish (DNF) rates. A hypothetical example would be a list showing the top three finishers, their times, and the average finishing time for all participants.
Analysis of this data allows for tracking individual athlete progress, assessing race difficulty year over year, and understanding broader trends in ultrarunning performance. Historical data can be particularly insightful, showing how course conditions, training methods, and participant demographics have evolved over time. This information contributes to improved training plans, more effective race management strategies, and a richer understanding of human endurance.
