Date: September 13, 2025 Participant: Olivia Jessop #4237 Race: 2025 REVEL Big Cottonwood Half Marathon Distance: 13.1 miles

Consistent Pacing, Room for Speed Adjustment in Middle Splits Olivia Jessop participated in the 2025 REVEL Big Cottonwood Half Marathon, covering the 13.1 miles in a time of 2:09:50 with an average pace of 9:54 minutes per mile. Her overall placement was 2057 out of 3972 participants. Notably, her fastest split pace was 7:52 in the fourth mile, significantly accelerating from her initial pace of 9:11. Olivia demonstrated consistent performance in her first four miles, maintaining a sub-9-minute pace during the third and fourth miles. Splits 9 through 13, however, showed a slowdown, peaking at an 11:36 pace in the eleventh mile, and a consistent pace around 11:15-11:32 toward the end. Focus could be placed on maintaining the pace demonstrated in the earlier miles to improve overall time, particularly in the later stages where she experienced slower splits. Identifying fatigue factors could aid in achieving a steadier completion pace.
