Consistent Steady Pace with a Strong Mid-Race Performance Kate Lonergan from New York, representing the Golden Gate Running Club, participated in the 2026 Bay to Breakers 12K Centipede event. Her total time was 1:54:16, covering a distance of 7.45 miles with a consistent average pace of 15:20 min/mile. Kate demonstrated a commendable increase in pace after Hayes Hill by achieving her quickest mile between miles 5 and 6 at 13:31 min/mile. Kate's overall placement was 871 out of 1839 participants, and she placed 443 among females. A notable aspect of her performance was the improvement in position from mile 2 to mile 3, advancing over 200 places overall. Kate may wish to focus on maintaining even splits across the race's entirety as she saw variability, particularly around the ascent. This would optimize her efforts, particularly for the challenging segments. Keep up the great work with your running club!
