A postcard arrived in the mail:

1998 A.L.A. Chicago Distance Classic 20K Race
Time 2:25:21 Pace 11:44
You finished 3117 out of 3200 total finishers.
You finished 1948 out of 1984 Males.
You finished 343 out of 346 Males age 25 to 29.

I'm thinking that I could have gone to my grave without hearing any of this.

(And if you're wondering why the time above differs from my self-reported time, it's because I started my stopwatch when I crossed the starting line which was about a minute and a half after the official start time.)
