Date: May 17, 2026 Participant: Katherine Raymond #40523 Race: 2026 Bay to Breakers 12K Centipede Distance: 7.4 miles

Consistent Improvement and Strong Finish Katherine Raymond completed the 2026 Bay to Breakers 12K with a final time of 3:15:49 and an average pace of 26:17 min/mile over 7.45 miles. She placed 1,411 out of 1,839 participants overall, ranking 713th in her gender category. Starting strong, her first-mile pace was 15:52 min/mile, but a noticeable slowdown occurred between miles 2 and 3 with her pace dropping to 28:11 min/mile. Despite this, Raymond successfully managed steep terrain, particularly between miles 2.2 and 2.7. By mile 7, Katherine improved her split time to 23:29 min/mile, demonstrating a strong finish and considerable pacing improvement. Her performance suggests potential in maintaining a consistent pace throughout, particularly after the initial slowdown. It's suggested to focus on maintaining pace through challenging segments to improve overall time. Great job managing the difficult course elements, especially during Hayes Hill. Well done representing "Party Gras."
