Consistent Pacing with a Strong Finish Andrei Ostrea finished the 2026 Bay to Breakers 12K with a total time of 1:18:15, achieving a consistent average pace of 10:30 min/mile. Starting with a steady pace of 10:57 min/mile for the initial two miles, there was a slight slowdown at the third mile with a split pace of 11:31 min/mile, likely affected by the climb on Hayes Hill. Importantly, Andrei improved her performance in the latter miles, achieving her fastest split pace of 9:28 min/mile in mile 7. From her starting position at 3847th to improving to 2586th overall by the finish, Andrei displayed significant progress throughout the race, especially given her strong finish. A notable highlight is securing 53rd in her division at mile 6 and maintaining it through to the end. Focusing on maintaining the faster pace from later miles throughout the race could yield even better results. Excellent effort, Andrei!
