They participated as part of Team Gooselings in the "12K Centipede" event. George started strong with consistent pacing throughout the first two miles, maintaining a solid pace of 15:35 min/mile.

Post-Hayes Hill, George impressively improved during miles 4 and 5, clocking in paces of 14:16 min/mile and 15:39 min/mile, respectively, showcasing their ability to recover well after a challenging segment.

Careful pacing and continued improvement on uphill segments could further enhance future performances. Great job, George!
