Date: May 17, 2026 Participant: Evan Adkins #40820 Race: 2026 Bay to Breakers 12K Distance: 7.4 miles

Consistent Pace and Strategic Mid-Race Gains Evan Adkins completed the 2026 Bay to Breakers 12K with a total time of 2:29:28, maintaining an average pace of 20:03 min/mile over the 7.45 miles. Notably, Evan maintained a consistent pace of 19:22 min/mile for the first two miles, and his initial position remained steady within the larger field; 6369th in the male category and 2139th among M30-39. There was a slowdown between miles 2 and 3, with a pace of 24:04 min/mile, likely due to the steep Hayes Hill which affected many in the race. However, Evan recovered well, notably improving his pace to 16:17 min/mile during mile 5, recovering positions lost and finishing in 7,097th place for males out of a total of 24,386 participants. Continuing to practice hill running may refine Evan's race performance further.
