Consistent Pace with Late Splits Adjustment Sebastian Ornelas, 19, from Las Vegas, NV, showed a consistent performance at the 2025 REVEL Mt Charleston Marathon. Initially, Sebastian maintained a sub-8-minute mile pace from miles 2 to 10, which demonstrates his endurance and ability to sustain speed over multiple splits. Notably, his fastest mile was mile 3 with a 7:12 min/mile split. By maintaining an average pace of 8:38 min/mile, Sebastian completed the marathon in 3:46:37, taking 890th place among male competitors and 50th in his division. In the latter stages, Sebastian's pace slightly slowed from mile 20 onward, particularly with a 9:53 min/mile at mile 20, and a significant adjustment at mile 24 with an 11:32 min/mile split. This indicates a key area for improvement in pacing strategies for the final segment of the marathon. Maintaining or gradually adjusting pace through strategic training sessions focused on the final miles can enhance overall performance in future races.
