Data generated from a timed footrace sponsored by Festival Foods, typically held around Thanksgiving, provides participants with performance information and overall race rankings. This data often includes individual finishing times, age group rankings, and sometimes pace information. A hypothetical example would be a participant finding their 5k time and placement within their age bracket.
Access to this post-race information offers runners a valuable tool for tracking personal progress, comparing performance against others, and setting future goals. It also contributes to the overall event experience, fostering a sense of community and friendly competition. Historically, race results were posted publicly, often in local newspapers. With the advent of online technology, access has become significantly easier and more widespread, allowing participants, their families, and the wider community to quickly find and share information.
