The team's performance shined in the early stages, with impressive consistent splits, particularly in miles 1 through 6, where they maintained a pace between 8:24 and 8:28 min/mile. They showed notable resilience, picking up speed again from mile 18, culminating in an impressive 8:10 min/mile during mile 23.

Great job maintaining and recovering pace towards the end of the race!
