Date: Oct. 5, 2025 Participant: Thomas Payne #12173 Race: 2025 Portland Marathon Distance: 26.2 miles
Consistent Pacing with Strong Mid-Race Performance Thomas exhibited a steady pacing strategy throughout the 2025 Portland Marathon. Starting with consistent sub-10-minute miles over the first 3 miles, Thomas displayed an impressive pace drop during miles 4 and 5, clocking in at 8:35 min/mile. This surge improved his placement significantly, moving him to 73rd in his division by mile 5. As the race progressed, Thomas maintained a pace of under 10-minute miles consistently, with only occasional increases in elapsed pace, pointing to his well-maintained endurance. However, in the later stages of the marathon, particularly from mile 19 onward, there was a noticeable increase in split times, peaking at 11:08 min/mile during mile 23. Despite this, Thomas managed a strong finish with a solid 9:16 min/mile in the final mile, completing the marathon in 4:10:56. Considering this was a full marathon, he might benefit from slightly adjusting the pacing strategy during the middle and later phases to further reduce split time fluctuations.
