I look at it this way; you don't ''win'' your age group, you finish first in your age group. There is only one winner, well two, there's a men's winner and a women's winner. It just sounds foolish to say you ''won'' something when you came in 50th overall.
That said, I have one win to my credit; a local 5k in the cold pouring rain. The fast guys must have stayed home, but I got to run the race behind the lead vehicle and break the tape when I crossed the finish line. I've got lots of age group awards but, this is one of the only awards I've held on to.
