Date: March 15, 2026 Participant: John Nguyen #40192 Race: 2026 Shamrock Run Fest presented by Toyota 5K Run Distance: 3.1 miles

Steady Progression and Consistent Effort from Start to Finish John Nguyen maintained a solid performance in the 2026 Shamrock Run Fest 5K with a final time of 42:37, averaging 13:44 min/mile across the 3.1-mile course. His initial mile was clocked at 12:01, which suggests a strong start, although the pace decreased moderately in subsequent miles. Moving from an average pace to 14:36 min/mile in the second mile and 14:40 min/mile in the third, his performance remained consistent overall. Improving his split times to reduce the gradual slowing in pace could be beneficial. Notably, he ranked 106th in the Men's 50-54 division, competing among 6521 total participants. With a team effort in Diverse Northwest, John demonstrated resilience all the way through with his overall cadence. Building endurance and incorporating varied pace training might well support further improvements in future races.
