His performance saw fluctuations with early splits ranging from 9:05 to 9:37 min/mile. Notably, the first split was 7:43 min/mile, and the final miles showed a strong finish with split times of 7:39 and 7:34 min/mile. This ability to accelerate towards the end indicates potential for maintaining a stronger pace throughout the race. Ivan placed 49th in his division (M19-24) out of 69 participants, showing competitive capability.
