Consistent Pacing and Strong Finish Amanda Wiggenhorn started the 7.45-mile race with a solid pace, maintaining a steady 6:53 min/mile for the first two miles. Notably, the third mile had a slight slowdown to a 7:29 min/mile pace, correlating with the ascent of Hayes Hill. Despite this challenge, she effectively regained her rhythm, improving to a faster 6:42 min/mile during the fourth mile. From miles four to seven, Amanda displayed remarkable consistency and speed, pacing between 6:20 and 6:47 min/mile. Her final placement in the Female 20-29 division was 24 out of a large field.
