She maintained a strong performance through the first three miles, with split paces of 8:30, 8:31, and 8:50. Her placing improved from 840th overall at the first mile to 775th by the second mile. This consistency demonstrates her ability to settle into a rhythm early in the race. In the latter stages, while her mile 8 split saw a slight increase to 10:10, impacting her average pace, she demonstrated determination by improving her final placing to 834th at the finish line. This suggests an opportunity to focus on sustaining her pace in the mid to late sections of the race. Overall, her average pace was 9:08 min/mile, finishing the race in 1:59:47. With improved pacing strategy in the middle segments, she could potentially see further time reductions in future events.
