Strong Early Pace Fuels Solid Marathon Finish Oliver Krekeler finished the marathon in 3:51:04, placing 252nd overall and 207th among men out of the field of 3,305. Krekeler ran a steady first half near 8:20-8:40 pace per mile, then found his best stretch between miles 15 and 19, holding between 8:01 and 8:11 per mile before easing over the closing miles. That late fade came after passing the lululemon Power-Up Zone near mile 22.5, where his per-mile pace slipped into the 9:40-10:20 range as he neared the finish on the Pearl Street Mall at over 5,000 feet of elevation.
