Date: May 17, 2026 Participant: Katy Rakestraw #40276 Race: 2026 Bay to Breakers 12K Centipede Distance: 7.4 miles

Consistent Pace and Strong Mid-Race Performance Katy Rakestraw completed the 2026 Bay to Breakers 12K Centipede with an official time of 1:45:31 and an average pace of 14:09 min/mile. Notably, her pace significantly improved between the 2nd and 3rd mile, evidenced by a 14:47 min/mile split, which was her fastest of the first half and allowed her to move up 154 positions overall. She maintained her standing for the remaining miles, finishing 684th out of 1,839 participants and 333rd in her gender category. Her strongest mile, in terms of pace, was from mile 5 with a sharp 10:10 min/mile pace. This mile helped her improve from her overall position after a challenging return to pace on the Hayes Hill section. Maintaining this momentum in future races could be highly beneficial. A focus on sustaining the initial pace improvement could further enhance her performance in upcoming events. Keep up the strong efforts, Katy!
