Consistent Pacing with Areas for Speed Enhancement McKenzie Ward participated in the 2025 Boston 10K for Women, completing the race in 1:26:51 with an average pace of 14:00 min/mile. Notably, McKenzie's first mile was her fastest, clocking in at 13:23 min/mile, while the final mile saw a deceleration to a pace of 14:39 min/mile. This gradual increase in split times indicates a well-managed pace initially, with opportunities to maintain speed towards the latter stages of the race. Throughout the event, McKenzie's placement fluctuated slightly, showing consistency in her age group (F20-29), ending at 1491st out of 5663 total participants. Moving forward, focusing on sustaining momentum in the latter part of the race could improve overall performance. Engaging in targeted training aimed at maintaining pace could help in achieving a more consistent speed and potentially improve final race times.
