Strong Finish on Hayes Hill Oleksandr Skorokhod participated in the 2026 Bay to Breakers 12K event. Covering a distance of 7.45 miles with an overall time of 1:33:16, he maintained an average pace of 12:31 min/mile. His performance showed continuous improvement, with a noticeable acceleration in the latter stages of the race. Particularly impressive was the segment from mile 5 to mile 6, where he recorded his fastest split at 10:55 min/mile. This suggests effective management of energy, particularly post-Hayes Hill. The start of the race saw a slight decline in pace, peaking at 15:06 min/mile in the second mile coinciding with the Hayes Hill climb. Despite this challenge, Oleksandr's ability to regain and maintain speed contributed to his improved positioning, moving from an overall position of 9257 at the 2-mile mark to finishing 6995th. Oleksandr's strategy of pacing and endurance paid off in the second half, especially evident after conquering the hill. Moving forward, focusing on maintaining a consistent pace uphill could further enhance performance.
