Date: May 4, 2025 Participant: David Murawski #1896 Race: 2025 REVEL White Mountains Marathon Distance: 26.2 miles

Consistent Start, Challenging Finish David Murawski, representing Swift River Runners, completed the 2025 REVEL White Mountains Marathon with a total elapsed time of 5:58:50. His pacing was commendable in the early stages; he achieved a consistent pace with his fastest split recorded at mile 4 with a pace of 8:59 min/mile. Through the first half of the race, David maintained a sub-10 pace for most miles, dipping below 10 minutes up to mile 5. The latter portion of the marathon proved more demanding, with the pace gradually slowing from mile 10 onwards and peaking at 21:42 min/mile during mile 23. Notably, the keys to sustaining energy over such distances lie in pacing consistency and gradual transitions. Reflecting his previous half marathon performance in 2024, where he ran a 13.1-mile race at a pace of 10:39 min/mile, David may benefit from focusing more on pacing strategies to balance speed and endurance in future full marathon events.
