Consistent Pacing with a Strong Finish Selamawit Tegegn, racing in the 2026 Bay to Breakers, demonstrated consistent pacing, finishing 9.23 miles in 1:31:45 with an average pace of 9:56 min/mile. Notably, Selamawit started at a pace of 10:12 min/mile during the first mile and improved to 9:40 min/mile by the ninth mile. There was a significant challenge between miles 2.2 and 2.7 on Hayes Hill, but the third-mile split time of 11:15 min/mile indicates good effort through the steep section. Despite the tough section, Selamawit picked up the pace with notable consistency towards the later stages of the race. Selamawit achieved impressive splits, particularly in the sixth and seventh mile with the fastest pace at 8:52 min/mile. Improvements in overall and gender division placements from the start to finish show strong execution and endurance. On improvement, addressing the slower pace at hills could lead to even better performance. Finishing strong in the 30-39 division as 68th demonstrates potential for future races. Keep building on this foundation!
