Just got the email with the link for the new IM age group ranking tool . Seems i was ranked 4183rd in Europe for 40-44 , 892nd in UK ... imagine that ... the four thousand one hundred and eighty third best 40-44 years old that took part in a EU IM in 2011 (or counting from the other direction.... about the third worst ) .
so clearly i am a serious contender for worst ranking ... but who on here has the best ??? .. come on people fess up ..

Though no where near as many in my category
Enter more than 1 race and you shoot up the rankings.
I think about 22 others have done 2 events....
The IM branded events aren't a big enough proportion of the whole scene for these rankings to be representative.
But then again, I'm in a VERY competitive age group!
I am however, first for my surname!
