Significant Improvement in Pacing and Performance Francois Nantel participated in the 2025 REVEL White Mountains Half Marathon representing Les Chickens - Triathlon Montreal. He completed the race in 1:54:49 with an overall pace of 8:45 min/mile. Notably, Francois' pacing was notably consistent, gradually increasing tempo as the race progressed. His Splits show a strong progression, starting at 9:25 in the first mile and hitting an impressive 8:15 by mile 10. This strategic acceleration likely contributed to his solid division placement of 10th in M55-59. Compared to his marathon performance last year, where he had an average pace of 12:17, Francois has shown substantial improvement in speed, specifically improving his overall pace by over three and a half minutes per mile. Consider maintaining consistent pace improvements in future events, especially in the late stages, as this could further enhance Francois' overall performance. Such improvements highlight this race as a significant milestone in Francois' running achievements.
