Consistent Improvement in Marathon Performance Loretta Masaro demonstrated impressive consistency and progress in her marathon performance at the 2025 REVEL Mt Charleston. Her overall time of 3:55:03 with an average pace of 8:58 min/mile marks a significant improvement from her previous marathon time of 4:25:09 in 2023, where her pace was 10:07 min/mile. Notably, she maintained consistent pacing in the first half of the race, with split paces frequently clocking in between 7:44 and 9:28 min/mile. Late in the race, slower splits were observed, particularly in mile 23 and beyond, where split paces exceeded 10 minutes per mile. A steady start and quicker paces in the middle of the race demonstrate potential to further improve the latter stages. Her final position at 32nd in her division was consistent with previous performances, but Loretta's overall improvement in time suggests a strategic focus can enhance her position further. Keep building on this momentum!
