Even Effort Through 20 Miles Before the Final Miles Cost Time Tristan Gorkin finished the marathon in 4:34:29, an overall pace of 10:28 per mile. He opened quickly, covering the first eight miles between 9:09 and 9:40 each, then settled into a steady rhythm through the middle miles, holding roughly 9:50-10:15 pace all the way to mile 20. The final 10K brought the toughest stretch of the day, with mile splits climbing into the 11- to 13-minute range as the cumulative pace drifted from 9:58 at mile 20 to 10:28 at the finish. His strongest sustained running came from miles 3 through 8, a six-mile stretch averaged out to roughly 9:22 per mile, the fastest extended segment of his race. That effort came well before the lululemon Power-Up Zone near mile 22.5, which he reached just as his pace had begun to ease in the closing miles.
