Consistent Splits and Strong Finish David Long demonstrated consistency and control throughout the 2025 REVEL Big Cottonwood Half Marathon. With a total elapsed time of 1:44:02 and an average pace of 7:56 min/mile, David maintained a robust performance, never straying far from his early pace. Impressively, his split times varied only slightly, indicating a strategic approach to maintaining his speed over the course.
