Date: June 20, 2026 Participant: Kristy Grass #1349 Race: 2026 Runtastic TIMP Half Marathon Distance: 13.1 miles

Consistent Start with Strategic Pacing Challenges Kristy's initial performance in the 2026 Runtastic TIMP Half Marathon showed promising pace management, particularly evident in the first two miles. Starting strong, she clocked an initial split of 12:46 min/mile and improved slightly to 12:41 min/mile in the second mile. Maintaining an average pace under 13 minutes per mile through five miles indicates a solid strategy in the opening stages. The latter part of the race saw pacing challenges, with a distinct slowdown after the seventh mile, peaking in the tenth mile with a split of 21:23 and a pace of 21:23 min/mile. While Kristy managed to recover some speed in the final mile, the overall pace finished at 16:30 min/mile for her official time of 3:36:09. These late-race pacing adjustments suggest a potential focus area for future races to enhance endurance and maintain speed over longer distances. Keep up the consistent efforts, Kristy!
