Data regarding outcomes of a 5-kilometer running or walking event often designated “Angels Among Us” provides valuable information. This data typically includes participant finishing times, fundraising totals, and sometimes details about award winners. A public display of this information serves participants, supporters, and potential future participants.
Access to this outcome data offers several advantages. It allows participants to compare their performance and track progress over time. For event organizers, the information provides insights into event participation trends and fundraising success. Published results can also foster a sense of community among participants and contribute to the overall transparency and accountability of the event. Historically, the compilation and dissemination of race results have evolved from simple posted lists to sophisticated online databases, reflecting advancements in technology and increased participant expectations.
