The outcome of a long-distance footrace (42.195 kilometers) for female athletes provides a quantifiable measure of athletic achievement, typically expressed as a time. This outcome may also include additional data such as finishing place and split times. For example, a record might indicate a finishing time of 2 hours, 14 minutes, and 5 seconds, along with the runner’s position relative to other competitors.
These outcomes are significant for several reasons. They offer a benchmark for evaluating individual progress, training effectiveness, and overall athletic performance. Historically, documenting race outcomes has played a crucial role in tracking the evolution of female athleticism and highlighting groundbreaking achievements that have challenged societal norms and inspired generations of runners. These records also contribute to a deeper understanding of human endurance and athletic potential.
