Presenting Marathonsplits.com

Two months ago I revealed a new site I had created to let people analyze swimrun race results. That site is Swimrun Watch and it has grown a bit in both content and features since.

Looking for my next venture I got the idea to do something similar but for a bigger sport. Mind though that it needs to be a sport with a habit to record split times. Marathon running! Such a standardized sport with the same measurements all across the world. So, I siphoned the results data of a few of the world’s biggest marathon races, adapted some of the features from Swimrun Watch and voilà! Marathonsplits.com was born.

To give you an idea, here’s Mo Farah putting the hammer down on Galen Rupp (and the rest of the field) at Chicago Marathon a few weeks ago:
