Strong Start and Consistent Finish Brian Hunt demonstrated an impressive performance at the 2025 REVEL Big Cottonwood Marathon with a final time of 3:32:40, maintaining an overall pace of 8:07 min/mile. With a remarkable 6:27 min/mile pace in the first mile, Brian established a solid start, initially placing 2nd in his division (M55-59). Although there were fluctuations in pacing, Brian consistently stayed strong throughout the race, securing a 3rd place finish in his division. Brian's splits indicate areas for potential focus: The early miles showed strong pacing, with several splits under 7:30 min/mile. However, later splits increased to over 8:30 min/mile, particularly the 25th and 26th miles where the pace rose to over 9:30 min/mile. Improving the endurance in the last few miles might help to maintain a steadier pace throughout. Brian represented Hunt Greatness well, finishing 218th overall out of 1393 participants. Keep up the strong work and aim to fine-tune later race segments!
