Age Grading


I like stats!  So far this year I've raced 14 times but only three times on the roads (the other 11 were snowshoe races).  The three road races were 15km, 10 miles, and half-marathon.  I couldn't be happier with the start of the year, I picked up two 40+ PRs (15k & 1/2) and ran my second fastest 10 mile.  I hope to stay healthy and take a shot at all the PRs I set last year.  I check out "age grading" but prefer to do my own age grading charts based on my lifetime PRs.  It isn't the cleanest way to compare (how often do I race at 15k or 200 meters?) but it gives me some sort of indication of how races now compare to races I did 20+ years ago.
