Narrative:

Departing sna a few minutes behind schedule; we received our final weights for our takeoff. All takeoff and landings at the time were occurring on runway 19R. After pushing back from the gate; starting engines; and initiating the very short taxi to the active runway we were immediately number one for takeoff. Following an uneventful takeoff and climbout; I noticed that the takeoff data was for runway 1L. I believe this event occurred due to my inexperience with operating at sna; the lengthy special instructions for noise abatement; the short distance from the terminal to the runway; the overwhelming external cues that 19R was the proper runway for our operation; and the time pressure felt due to our late departure. Additionally; our assigned departure procedure was 19R specific. Having more time to prepare for takeoff and reading paperwork more carefully seems to be the only way to prevent this type of occurrence.
