North Carolina takes two of the five

Holden Beach and Hillsborough landed in the same state today, and they could not look more different: 1,989 finishers on one side, 262 on the other. One state, two very different sizes of race morning.

Rockville brings the second-biggest field

Parks Half Marathon in Rockville, Maryland posted 892 finishers, the second-largest field of the day and the biggest pure half marathon in the batch. Those results are in and ready to search.

The long tail

The pattern in today's data

Holden Beach alone accounts for 1,989 of the roughly 4,206 finisher rows pulled today. Put the other four races together — 892, 262, 70 and 9 — and you get 1,233. One race out-produced four combined, and the two smallest fields of the day both came from races that share their names with much bigger events in other states.

If your name is in any of those five sets, it is on the site now.
