How age grading works

Age grading compares your time to the best time someone your age and sex could be expected to run at that distance. A score near 100% is world-record level, 80% and above is national class, and 60% is a strong local-class run. As you get older the standard eases, so a steady age-graded score year over year actually means you are still improving.
