Consistent Split Performances in Half Marathon Jo Konsdorf completed the 2025 REVEL Mt Charleston Half Marathon with a total time of 1:56:49, averaging an 8:55 min/mile pace. Notably, Jo's strong start with an 8:18 min/mile pace indicated robust initial stamina. She maintained consistent pacing, most impressively with a split between miles 4 and 5 at 8:28-8:31 min/mile. Jo's finish positioned her 5th in the F60-64 division among 1608 participants, marking a commendable age group performance. While the result was slightly above her 2024 time of 1:54:37, Jo's ability to sustain splits around 8:30 min/mile is remarkable. The gradual time increase toward the end, as seen in a 9:35min/mile for the last-mile split, suggests a potential area for refining late-race pacing. Continued focus on pacing strategy for the latter half could yield performance gains, enabling Jo to target her previous peak time and further enhance her rankings in future races.
