amkelly, your 1991 time would have place 47th this year. I didn't look closely at the results until just now. So, even a very competitive race looks week compared to 25 years ago! Look at how many marathons your PR would outright win these days (our PRs are nearly identical, so I have noticed this!)
So this is still a very competitive race compared to anything in the area where I live now. I've been too lazy to figure out how much of the much slower times in the races I run now is a function of "where" and how much a function of "when". I suppose there's something about those Buffalo/Rochester winters that weeds out the slow and weak, even now!
