Date: March 15, 2026 Participant: JoAnn Ermita #32286 Race: 2026 Shamrock Run Fest presented by Toyota 8K Distance: 5.0 miles

Consistent Effort with Tactical Adjustments JoAnn Ermita demonstrated consistency and adaptability during the 2026 Shamrock Run Fest 8K. Starting strong with an initial mile at a 13:00 min/mile pace, she clocked a time of 13:00. Her placement improved remarkably from 3034 overall and 326 in her division at the first mile to 2061 overall and 215 in her division by the second mile. Notably, her pace varied strategically, hitting a steady rhythm at mile 3 with a return to a 13:00 min/mile pace. This adaptive strategy allowed her to maintain an overall pace of 13:36 min/mile, a commendable effort over the 4.97-mile course. Across the four splits, JoAnn navigated varying paces, notably a more challenging 15:47 min/mile at mile 4. While her finishing time was 1:07:38, the potential to maintain even splits beyond the midpoint of the race is evident. Her ability to bounce back and gain positions shows promise for future races.
