Date: May 17, 2026 Participant: Jaiveer Kothari #19617 Race: 2026 Bay to Breakers 12K Centipede Distance: 7.4 miles

Consistent Pacing with a Strong Finish Jaiveer Kothari maintained a solid performance at the 2026 Bay to Breakers 12K Centipede event. His pacing was remarkably consistent, starting with a steady pace of 15:13 min/mile for the first two miles. The third mile saw a slight increase, clocking in at 16:51 min/mile, likely due to the challenging elevation at Hayes Hill. However, Jaiveer recovered well, delivering a strong fourth mile at 14:51 min/mile. He showed great resilience in the latter part, significantly improving his pace in the last two miles with times of 11:03 and 11:22 min/mile, respectively. His final elapsed time was 1:49:16 with an overall pace of 14:40 min/mile. Moving from 834th at mile 2 to finishing 730th shows a commendable improvement and suggests an effective race strategy, particularly for the back half of the race. Consider focusing on maintaining that late-race strength for an even brighter performance in future races.
