Hey Scott,
Some of us at work were playing around with the numbers from the 86-mile
race results and this is what we came up with. You can use it for whatever
or just chuck it. The correlation between age and finish time is virtually
zero - no relation.

I view this as good news! It gives me hope that training will still provide excellent results even as you age. On the flip side, it says that simply being young will not make up for not having a good training program.
