Date: May 17, 2026 Participant: Shufan Xia #2557 Race: 2026 Bay to Breakers 12K Centipede Distance: 7.4 miles

Consistent Progress on Hayes Hill Shufan Xia maintained a steady run with an overall elapsed time of 1:37:01 at the 2026 Bay to Breakers 12K Centipede event. Her average pace was 13:01 min/mile. The race started strong with a 11:34 min/mile pace in the first mile, placing 424th overall and 224th among females. The segment from 2.2 to 2.7 miles on Hayes Hill presented a challenge, reflected in a slower split pace of 17:11 min/mile for the fourth mile. One highlight was the later stage where she improved her overall placement by 73 places from the third to the sixth mile, finishing the sixth and seventh miles with improved paces of 11:28 and 11:20 min/mile, respectively. While the incline impacted her times, the recovery in the later part of the race was notable. Continuing to focus on maintaining pace during uphill segments might help further optimize performance. Great effort by Shufan representing Adam's Aliens team!
