Date: May 17, 2026 Participant: Sofia Taylor #40830 Race: 2026 Bay to Breakers 12K Distance: 7.4 miles

Steady Progress with Timely Improvements Sofia Taylor demonstrated a consistent performance in the 2026 Bay to Breakers 12K with a total time of 2:33:39 and an overall pace of 20:37 min/mile. Notably, the steep Hayes Hill between miles 2.2 and 2.7 likely contributed to the slower 25:47 min/mile split between miles 1 and 2. However, Sofia managed significant improvement with a strong split of 17:38 min/mile by mile 4, highlighting effective pacing strategies. Finishing 11,221st overall and 5,683rd among females, Sofia's pacing improvements on the second half of the course were evident. Enhancing the placement within the F30-39 division from 2,464 at mile 1 to 1,701 at mile 3 underpins Sofia's determination and strong recovery in the middle portion of the race. As she finished 2,384th in her division, focusing on maintaining the momentum gained on flat sections could further improve positioning. Excellent work representing "404 Legs Not Found" with solid, progressive pacing throughout the event.
