Format
A data frame with 8636 observations on the following variables.
state
State of residence of runner.
time
Official time from starting gun to finish line.
net
The recorded time (in seconds) from when the runner crossed the starting
line to when the runner crossed the finish line. This is generally
less than the official time because of the large number of runners in
the race: it takes time to reach the starting line after the gun has
gone off.
