Her race opened quickly, with the first three miles clicking off in 7:38, 7:21, and 7:19, the fastest sustained stretch of her day. From there, mile splits eased into the 7:388:26 range through mile 10, before a brief dip to 9:00 in mile 11.

Her early-race rhythm through the first three miles stands out as the highlight of an otherwise evenly managed effort across the rest of the course.
