Consistent Pace with a Strong Start Henry maintained a remarkable pace throughout the marathon, with an overall pace of 6:23 min/mile for a total elapsed time of 2:47:16. Notably, he kicked off with a steady 6:32 min/mile pace for the first mile and gradually improved, marking his fastest split at mile 9 with a pace of 5:39 min/mile. By mile 12, he sustained an impressive average pace around 6:15 min/mile, showing a strong mid-race performance. His splits between mile 16 and 19 demonstrated persistence, maintaining pace below 6:10 min/mile. In the latter part of the marathon, Henry showed resilience. Despite some slowing in the final miles, with a 7:39 min/mile pace at mile 26, his consistent early and mid-race pacing was crucial, helping him secure a spot in the top 10 of his division, placing 10th in the M16-24 age group. For future races, trying to sustain that early pace might improve his finish.
