Date: Oct. 26, 2025 Participant: Vy Lam #7901 Race: 2025 UTHealth Houston 10K Distance: 6.2 miles

Consistency in Pace with Key Improvements Vy started her 10K run with a strong pace at 11:53 min/mile on the first mile, securing an early advantage in her division. However, the splits initially increased to 17:01 min/mile, which led to a drop in her overall and divisional standings during the second mile. Despite this, she managed to steady her pace, finishing the final mile with an improved split time of 15:03 min/mile. Her consistency in later miles helped her place 74th in her division, and she maintained a final average pace of 15:08 min/mile over the 6.2-mile distance. Encouragingly, Vy made adjustments in her split times, especially between the fourth and fifth miles, which highlights her ability to end the race on a strong note. A focus on pacing strategies, particularly following a strong start, might yield even more competitive results in future events.
