Consistent Pace But Slowed in the Middle Splits Lauren Ciurca completed the 2025 Portland Marathon Half Marathon with an overall time of 1:58:35, maintaining an average pace of 9:03 min/mile. Starting strong with an 8:21 min/mile pace in the first mile, there was notable consistency until mile 4. However, splits began to lengthen from mile 5 (9:09 min/mile) through mile 9, reaching a peak split pace of 9:46 min/mile at mile 7, before concluding with a faster 8:35 min/mile in the final mile. Compared to last year’s performance, which concluded at 1:54:50 with an 8:45 min/mile pace, there is an opportunity to enhance endurance in the mid-section of the race to prevent pace decline. Despite this, recovering with an 8:35 min/mile for the final mile suggests a strong finishing capacity. Maintaining early momentum and minimizing mid-race slowdowns will be beneficial for future improvements. Lauren, representing FoPo Run Club, finished 1439th overall among 5623 participants.
