Strong Start, Consistent Performance with Room for Positive Finishing Strategy Artem Feldman from the Bronx delivered a consistent performance in the 2026 REVEL Reno Tahoe Half Marathon, maintaining a strong early pace. His initial splits showcased impressive pacing, with the first mile clocking in at 6:58 and the second mile slightly faster at 6:49, reflecting a strong start. This early pace secured him the 2nd place position in the M40-44 division for most of the race. Artem's overall elapsed time was 1:37:16 with an average pace of 7:25 min/mile. Later miles became slightly challenging with increased splits, peaking at 8:33 min/mile in mile 10. A constructive focus moving forward could be on pacing strategy in the latter portion of the race to maintain consistency. Despite this, he earned the 3rd place in his division out of many participants, which is commendable. Continued focus on maintaining the early momentum observed can further improve overall results in future races.
