Spring 2003 2 Mile Fun Run: Team Results

WOW! This is the largest number of teams we have had participating in the 2 Mile GSFC Fun Run in recent years! The first place trophy position was decided by only a single runner/volunteer. (So for those of you who may think you don't count---you do!)

The "Unknown" team captains are those for whom I received a team roster but did not necessarily indicate who (if anyone?) was captain. If you can enlighten me on such persons please email me.

Teams marked with "XXX" did not have the minimum required five persons to accurately calculate a speed entry (See GROC team rules). Importantly, the normalized results mean that the women--who generally are fewer in number and slower in absolute speed--can greatly contribute to the speed score. This years speed trophy goes to Bob's Rolling Stones; Ms. Teresa Lafouracde finished 13th in that teams absolute speed standings but jumped up to the top five finishers after the normalization. Hence her normalized time really helped earn the GROC 2 mile Fun Run speed trophy. Congratulations to all who participated!

The team score is the sum of the five lowest placement points of the team. The placement points for males are the same as the finish order among males (180 finishers). The placement points for females are normalized such that the first female finisher will have a placement point of one and the last (88th) female finisher will have a placement point exactly equal to that of the last male finisher (88th female place = 180 placement points).
