Over the course of 7.45 miles, she maintained a consistent performance with a final pace of 28:39 min/mile. Notably, her best split time was 26:52 min/mile, achieved between miles 2 and 3. Chardonnay displayed determination as she improved her position remarkably, advancing from 1406th overall at the second mile to 1037th after the third mile. Analyzing her performance across the race, splits in the early and middle miles (splits 1, 2, 4, and 5) were over 30 minutes.
