UCTC Masters & Sub-Masters Results for Summmer 2007 Meets

Here are the results for all masters and sub-masters athletes this summer. Recently, the governing bodies made the age divisions the same for men and women: masters are 35 and over, ages 30-34 are sub-masters. After the name and age are three columns: the actual performance, the age-graded performance, and the rank in percent. (To use the WAVA tables, I had to add 0.24 sec to the times for to "convert" to FAT.) The latter two entries are based on tables produced by National Master News which attempted statistically to figure out how much track and field performance in each event declined with age, and then to figure out a set of factors from which one can predict how fast/far the actual performance would have been at age 25 -- 30 years. The rank is simply the percent of the predicted world record performance for the athletes actual age. The rank can be used to compare performances of both men and women of any age in any event. This year, I am using the most recent WAVA tables, so numbers differ slightly form previous years for the same performance. Obviously, this is on somewhat shaky ground statistically, but as long as one does not push the tables to extremes in age or performance, the system seems to work fairly well. Whether a 20.5 second 100 meters by a 101 year old man is really a better performance than Asafa Powell's world record, I cannot say: how many 101 year olds have ever run 100 meters? Anyway, masters athletes can have fun with it! The calculator is available at: http://www.howardgrubb.co.uk/athletics/wmalookup06.html People who rank above 80% usually compete well in National-level masters meets. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- June 22, 2007 age actual age-graded rank 100 METER Ennis Taylor 43 M 12.4 11.82 83.38 Cherylyn Gooch 49 F 14.6 12.83 81.77 Bernard Key 44 M 13.4 12.66 77.30 Tony Goodman 35 M 13.3 13.40 73.09 Samuel Rone 35 M 13.3 13.40 73.09 400 METER DASH Garry Shumway 46 M 57.5 51.75 83.45 Cherylyn Gooch 49 F 1:17.0 1:03.86 75.54 800 METER RUN Paul Perry 62 M 2:34.9 2:02.36 82.63 MILE RUN Paul Perry 62 M 5:43.9 4:31.9 81.86 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- June 29, 2007 100 METER Jackie Mister 45 F 13.8 12.66 82.83 Brian Quick 46 M 12.3 11.49 85.24 Cherylyn Gooch 49 F 14.5 12.74 82.32 200 METER Jackie Mister 45 F 29.7 26.58 80.29 Brian Quick 46 M 25.9 23.19 83.31 Cherylyn Gooch 49 F 31.0 26.49 80.54 600 METER Willie Johnson 47 M 1:46.4 1:35.06 75.90 1500 METER Paul Perry 62 M 5:22.3 4:09.0 82.72 James Bianco 44 M 5:39.8 5:07.2 67.05 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- July 5, 2007 100 METER Ennis Taylor 43 M 11.9 11.35 86.25 Brian Quick 46 M 12.8 11.94 81.97 T.
