Strong Finish on Hayes Hill Alison Yang maintained a steady pace in the early miles with a consistent 13:36 min/mile for the first two miles. At mile three, her pace changed to 15:29 min/mile, likely due to the elevation of Hayes Hill. However, she improved her position in the overall and gender ranks at this point, moving to 454th overall and 228th in her gender. Despite the demanding hill section, Alison regained momentum with a swift recovery, finishing her fourth mile at 12:19 min/mile. While her longest split was between miles 4 and 5 at 24:21 min/mile, she finished strong with consistent sub-13-minute miles for the final stretch. Completing the 12K in 1:50:23, Alison demonstrated determination, with a concluding overall pace of 14:49 min/mile. Sustaining this effort at the end, especially after tackling Hayes Hill, is commendable. Consider strategizing pacing for more even efforts across segments.
