Heat Map of Where Lisa has Run Marathons

As you may know, I like data and data wrangling. When I found this new tool, openheatmap.com, I wanted to try it out – so I made a heat map of the places I’ve run races. You can check out the interactive version here: http://shar.es/TNDng

The values look a little off because I took the log of the number of races I ran, rather than the actual raw value of races run per location. This is because I’ve run 24 races in California, and the next most frequent location is Pennsylvania, with … 3 races. With just the raw number of races, the California bubble was very very large. =)

Two weeks to Delaware Marathon!
