Consistent Early Performance with Opportunities for Late Race Gains Matthew Grandjean completed the 2025 REVEL Mt Charleston Half Marathon with a time of 1:40:58 and an overall pace of 7:42 min/mile. Noteworthy early split performances included the sixth mile, clocked at a 7:28 pace, and his swiftest mile at 6:51 during the seventh mile. Despite a strong start, there was a noticeable decrease in pace during the twelfth mile at a split of 9:01, suggesting focus areas for endurance building in the latter part of races. Matthew achieved ninth place in his age division, M50-54, indicating his competitiveness among peers. Compared to previous REVEL races, there is a minor decline from his 2024 time of 1:40:22, with pace adjustments needed particularly towards the final miles. Engaging with training that targets end-race endurance and consistency could enhance his performance stability in future races. Being part of the Red Rock Running Company team, there is potential to leverage group dynamics for sustained pace improvements.
