Date: March 29, 2026 Participant: Rejeesh Radhakrishnan #12538 Race: 2026 Saucony Love Run Philly Half Marathon Distance: 13.1 miles

Consistent Pace with Opportunities for Strategic Adjustments Rejeesh Radhakrishnan from Hopewell Township, NJ, completed the 2026 Saucony Love Run Philly Half Marathon with an overall time of 2:47:04 and an average pace of 12:45 min/mile. Out of 11,587 total participants, he secured the 8,711th position overall and ranked 4,111th among male participants. In his M45-49 division, he placed 210th. His initial mile was completed in 10:20 min/mile, maintaining sub-11:00 paces through the first four miles. However, there was a notable increase in split times from mile 5 onwards, peaking at 14:09 min/mile for the 12th mile. While he sustained a steady overall pace, focusing on maintaining the early mile intensity during the latter stages can yield a more uniform pace and potentially better placements. Emphasizing endurance in the middle miles will bolster performance in future races.
