Date: May 17, 2026 Participant: Tim Hedgpeth #3545 Race: 2026 Bay to Breakers 12K Distance: 7.4 miles

Consistent Effort in Challenging Conditions Tim Hedgpeth maintained a steady pace during the 2026 Bay to Breakers race, covering the 12K distance with a final elapsed time of 3:19:21 and an average pace of 26:45 minutes per mile. Throughout the race, Tim consistently demonstrated perseverance, especially noticeable from the 1-mile marker at a 17:58 min/mile pace to the 5th mile, where the pace increased, possibly due to the Hayes Hill section. Despite facing slowed paces in certain parts, including a challenging 5th-mile split at 52:30 min/mile, Tim effectively navigated the course. Notably, he improved in the final mile, finishing it in 23:01 min/mile, an impressive adjustment. Overall, Tim placed 1035th in the M50-59 division, 8457th among men, and 18427th overall in a total field of 24,386 participants. These results suggest opportunities to examine pacing strategies for future races, especially on uphill sections like Hayes Hill.
