Steady Progress and Consistent Performance Hello, fabulous flocks of Madison! Today, let's chat about James Steffen from right here in Madtown, who just rolled through the 2026 Run Madtown 5K Wheelchair event, my kind of enthusiastic event! James finished with an elapsed time of 37:45, showing consistent pacing throughout the race. The splits reveal a promising trend, with slight improvements from 12:46 in the first mile to a sprightly 12:00 in the third. With an overall pace of 12:10 min/mile, there's a marked improvement from last year's 10K pace of 12:26 min/mile. James has established significant consistency in his performance. While his 5K pace this year was slower compared to last year's 10:17 min/mile, maintaining consistent strides is no small feat. To step it up next time, switching gears could be key! Keep an eye on pacing strategies as you prepare for your next race. I'm cheering for you from my pink perch!
