Date: March 29, 2026 Participant: Amy Bria #2912 Race: 2026 Saucony Love Run Philly Half Marathon Distance: 13.1 miles

Consistent Pacing with a Strong Finish Amy Bria maintained a steady performance throughout the 2026 Saucony Love Run Philly Half Marathon, finishing with a time of 1:53:59 and an average pace of 8:42 min/mile. Her initial splits were consistent, starting with 8:47 min/mile and improving slightly to 8:36 min/mile by mile five. Noticeable improvements came in the final miles, with her fastest split at mile 13, clocking in at 8:02 min/mile. While Amy initially ranked well in her division (6th place by mile two), her standing varied throughout, ultimately finishing 18th in her division. The variation in her placements suggests a competitive field, particularly in her age group. Enhancing endurance in middle splits, especially around miles seven and eight where times increased to 9:21 and 9:48 min/mile, respectively, might help maintain a more consistent overall performance. Her finish indicates she had a reserve, suggesting a strategy to sustain the pace earlier might benefit future races.
