Consistent Early Splits and Strong Division Performance Jace Curtis from Ephraim, UT, participated in the 2026 REVEL Mt Charleston Marathon representing team Rookies. Over the course of the marathon, Jace maintained a commendable consistency in his initial pace. Notably, from mile 1 to mile 10, he averaged a pace between 8:24 and 8:50 min/mile, showing strong early momentum. His placement fluctuated slightly but remained competitive, showing ranks within the top 35 in the M19-24 division during these miles. Towards the latter part of the race, Jace's pace shifted, averaging between 9:15 and 10:13 min/mile from mile 11 to the finish line. This adjustment reflected a change in pacing strategy or perhaps an energy management decision. Despite this, Jace finished the marathon with an overall time of 4:35:16, achieving 35th place in his division among males aged 19-24. Maintaining his early pace throughout the entire race could be an area to enhance future performances.
