Analyzing SCMS 10

I came across an interesting article on the demographics for 2009 United States Marathon Runners (MarathonGuide) and attempted to analyze our SINGAPOREAN timings using SCMS 10 results*.

As this is my first attempt, pls give me any constructive comments so that I can improve my analysis.

No of Runners Participated



A total of 12,965 Singaporean took part in the race.

Only 12,097 runners (94%) completed the race. 10,291 of the runners were male while 1,806 of them were female.

Unfortunately, 868 runners (6%) did not finish the race or were disqualified. 693 were  males and 175 were females.


For Male, the average timing to complete the marathon is in the range of 6:00 to 6:30hr.
For Female, the average timing to complete the marathon is in the range of 6:30 to 7:00hr.

* Data used for the computations were from SCMS official race timing.
