Steady Improvement and Strong Finish Tori Carter demonstrated notable consistency and managed a commendable progression in her pacing during the 2025 REVEL Big Cottonwood Half Marathon. Starting with a 9:40 min/mile pace, she exhibited a brilliant improvement by reaching a pace of 8:08 min/mile by mile 5. Her pacing saw fluctuations with an impressive split at mile 5, showing her capability to adjust and maintain motivation mid-race. By remaining around the 9:22 min/mile mark for the latter parts of the race, she showed her strength in maintaining a steady cadence, completing the 13.1 miles with a final time of 2:06:32 and an overall pace of 9:39 min/mile. While Tori’s overall placement was 1877 out of 3972 runners, she was consistent within her gender and division categories.

The support from her team, “Bluey and Bingos Birthday Party,” might have been a motivating factor for her impressive finish.
