Consistent Start, Strong Mid-Race Surge Christian Linschoten maintained consistent pacing from the start, clocking a 9:09 min/mile on the first mile. A gradual improvement was visible with a drop to an 8:56 min/mile pace by mile four. By mile eight, Christian's Elapsed Pace reached 8:55 min/mile, demonstrating a strong surge in the middle of the race. Notably, miles seven and eight were where Christian improved in placement, moving up to 402nd overall from 454th. While Christian's pace slowed in the final miles, hitting a 12:28 min/mile at mile twelve, he exhibited determination by maintaining a consistent place within his division, M25-29. Achieving an overall place of 585 out of 1542 participants is commendable, especially with a respectable Elapsed Time of 2:08:37. Focus on maintaining an even pace throughout, especially in the later stages, might result in even better performances in the future. Well done representing Therapists Run Club!
