Her average pace was 7:36 min/mile, with a noticeable consistency in her splits despite a brief slowdown in the middle section. Particularly strong were her second and eighth miles, recorded at 7:12 and 7:18 min/mile, respectively, highlighting moments of strong pacing. Nora's performance shifted position-wise throughout the race, climbing as high as 297th overall and facing variations as low as 964th by the event's conclusion.
