Consistent Start with Opportunities Ahead Nadia Hawkes started strong at the 2026 REVEL Big Cottonwood Half Marathon, maintaining a steady pace of 11:02 min/mile for the first three miles. It was a consistent start, ranking her in positions 1843 overall and 1099 in her gender category. As the race progressed, the paces varied, culminating with a finishing time of 3:07:40, translating to an average pace of 14:19 min/mile. One key observation is the noticeable shift in pace starting from the fourth mile, where the split time increased to 13:05 min/mile. This trend continued, with the slowest split at mile 10, clocking 17:58 min/mile. This indicates an area to work on: sustaining the initial pace through strategic pacing as the race progresses.
