Exactly who was the competitor wearing bib #500 for the Elko team at the NXR-SW girls championship race? Photo by Alan Versaw.
Do you like mysteries? I think I have one for you.
And, for those of you who've asked about the identity of the girl in black in front of the NXR-SW championship race early stages, I think we're getting close to a resolution of that question.
Milliseconds Sports Timing, the timing company for the NXR-SW event, now shows a different set of results for the girls championship race that what was posted on race day. Two additional names now show in the race results who were not there in the original posting of results. Additionally, team scoring no longer shows on the timing company's results for the race. So, I have reprocessed the results below with team scoring added.
The first additional runner now showing is Mary Jo Wright of Elko. Wright is listed as wearing bib #498 (the bib actually assigned to her prior to the race) and not bib #500. The photograph above, however, clearly shows an Elko runner at the front of the race in the early going wearing bib #500. Judging by her season's performances, Wright is the kind of runner who might be expected to be out in front of such a race as NXR-SW.
According to the revised results, Wright eventually finished in 40th place and counts as #27 in team scoring, thus changing the finishing numbers for everyone finishing at place 40 or lower in the original results (27 or lower in team scoring).
A possible explanation for this turn of events is that Wright mistakenly wore the wrong bib or was given the wrong bib to wear by her coach when her bib turned up missing. Since bib #500 wasn't in the roster for the championship race, it did not initially register in the race results. I don't know that that either of these is the explanation, but either would seem to provide a coherent explanation of the facts. I do not wish to be understood as implying intentional wrongdoing on anyone's part--that judgment would be both unnecessarily harsh and premature.
The second additional runner now appearing in the team scoring is Dani Jones of Desert Vista. She now appears in place 77 (place 59 for the purposes of team scoring).
In any case, the insertion of Wright and Jones into the championship race does appear to make some relatively minor impacts on the actual team scoring, as shown below.
