You'll have to explain what some of these things are because I have no idea: chip time, division, division rank.
Whatever they mean, I'm very impressed!
Chip time refers to the chip that each runner wears so that when you cross the start line you are clocked until you cross the finish line. The chip identifies you with your bib number and thus your name.
The clock time is the time you cross the finish line, but the chip time is an accurate timing of your run since you don't cross the start line from the gun. Being midway back in the pack at the start line you can see that it took me a minute and 10 seconds to get to the start line from when the gun went off.
Division is the age group. So "3539" means runners in the age group 35 to 39 at the time of the race.
So that means that my division rank for my age group places me crossing the finish line in 129th place out of 611 runners in that age group.
Thanks for explaining all that.
