I just got an email from the Race Director of the WIREFLY NATIONAL MARATHON saying:

"We wanted to make you aware that due to a cone placement error this course was inadvertently .24 miles longer than the 13.1 official distance which race officials had mapped and USATF had certified. While your Official Time remains the same for the event, we are providing an amended section to the posted results. Click below for adjusted half marathon race results.

My adjusted time is 1:29:21 which translates to a 6:49 pace. It doesn't say EXACTLY where the misplaced cone was, so I'm unsure if I can just subtract 1 minute and 40 seconds from my last mile (which would put it at 5:43). I'm going to try to find out.

If what I said above stands, then my times would've been:

Mile 1 - 7:58
Mile 2 - 6:56
Mile 3 - 7:04
Mile 4 - 7:08
Mile 5 - 7:08
Mile 6 - 7:07
Mile 7 - 6:44
Mile 8 - 6:46
Mile 9 - 6:41
Mile 10 - 6:28
Mile 11 - 6:32
Mile 12 - 6:21
Mile 13 - 5:43 (was 7:23)
.1 to finish - .38

Total Time: 1:29:21 (was 1:31:01)
