Steady Performances with a Resilient Finish Cesar Lopez, aged 41 and hailing from Las Vegas, completed the 2025 REVEL Mt Charleston Half Marathon with a time of 1:46:34, achieving an overall pace of 8:08 per mile. Among 1608 participants, he was placed 276th overall, 167th among males, and 24th in the M40-44 division. His performance reflected consistency with an observable pattern in splits, particularly pacing his miles mostly under 8:05 per mile, except for miles 11-13 where the pace slightly dipped. This dip, especially in mile 13 with a split pace of 8:48, might be an area to consider for future training focus. Noteworthy were miles 7 and 8, where Cesar managed to pick up the pace to 7:17 and 7:38 per mile, respectively. This demonstrates capability for a stronger tempo which could be encouraged to harness across later distances. As a member of the Las Vegas Runners, Cesar showed tenacity with his consistent split performances. Consider targeting endurance in latter miles to bolster future race outcomes and continue building on the solid foundation set during this event.
