Strong Finish on Hayes Hill Marks Impressive Progress Zoe Cheney completed the 2026 Bay to Breakers 12K with a time of 2:13:33, maintaining a steady average pace of 17:55 min/mile. Notably, Zoe showed significant improvements during the latter part of the race. Between miles 4 and 7, her pace improved considerably with mile splits of 19:10, 13:30, 15:28, and 12:03 min/mile, indicating a solid finish. While her initial pace was 17:45 min/mile for the first mile, the experience of tackling Hayes Hill suggests potential in maintaining or even amplifying such speed throughout the course. Zoe's position improved markedly from 12571 to 10740 over the last four miles, particularly impressive given the challenges between miles two and three. With continued focus on consistent pacing early in the race, Zoe is well-positioned to enhance her overall performance in future events. Great job representing "Bark or Die"!
