I had fun analyzing data from the NYC marathon, which was this past weekend. I made this chart in python with the joypy library, my first time using it. You can access the data in this google sheet if you’re interested: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1O_zxndHKhKMIfJ9e7_M5L7b4F3S__d1nVnUS8iZn8yE/edit?gid=0#gid=0
And see my full analysis of it here:

Huh, that’s actually surprisingly slow to me. With a bit of training anyone under forty with a bit of an active lifestyle should be able to do sub 4h00 (=5:41 min/km or 9:09 min/mi). Then again, I know that running a marathon at all is a goal for quite some people, but still.
