Consistent Pacing with a Strong Finish Karen Haddock completed the 2025 Boston 10K for Women with an overall time of 1:33:15, maintaining an average pace of 15:02 min/mile over a 6.2-mile course. Her race began with a first-mile pace of 14:56 min/mile. She showed consistent pacing throughout the race, particularly at the midsection, where her third mile was timed at 14:52 min/mile, a slight improvement in speed from her initial split. The final stretch slightly slowed to a 15:35 min/mile pace, yet she managed to advance her overall standing significantly, jumping from 4381st place at the start to 3063rd by the final mile.
