Consistent Pacing with Opportunities for Betterment Kelly Hanada finished the 2026 REVEL Mt Charleston Half Marathon with an elapsed time of 3:24:54, maintaining an overall pace of 15:38 min/mile. Her consistent pacing was demonstrated by the fact that after starting strong with a pace of 12:07 min/mile in the first mile, she maintained a relatively steady pace throughout the race, finishing 1256th overall out of 1542 participants. In her gender category, she placed 741st and 71st in her F50-54 division. Noticing the variations, the second mile showed a notable increase in time (16:46 min/mile), but Kelly managed to bring the pace back down to 13:06 min/mile by the fourth mile. However, the final miles saw intervals as high as 19:04 min/mile. To refine her performance further, focusing on sustaining the initial pace and gradually improving speed on subsequent miles could be beneficial. Overall, consistency in effort is commendable, and there's potential to enhance speed endurance.
