Date: May 17, 2026 Participant: Mayumi Wyrick #41044 Race: 2026 Bay to Breakers 12K Centipede Distance: 7.4 miles

Solid Performance with Improved Pace Consistency Mayumi Wyrick from Mill Valley, CA, completed the 2026 Bay to Breakers 12K Centipede race with an overall time of 1:18:12, averaging a pace of 10:29 min/mile. She represented the San Francisco Ballet Orchestra and placed 255th overall out of 1839 participants. Her pacing strategy allowed her to manage the course effectively, particularly after the steep section of Hayes Hill between miles 2.2 and 2.7. The first two miles were consistent with a pace of 9:01 min/mile. A slowdown occurred between miles 2 and 3, with a split time of 14:09 and a pace of 14:09 min/mile, mostly due to the elevation climb. Afterward, her pace progressively improved, finishing with a split pace of 9:52 min/mile in mile 6. Notably, Mayumi successfully recovered pace post-Hayes Hill, indicating potential to further capitalize on her strength in flatter sections.
