Consistent Pace with Strong Start and Controlled Finish Jessica Price completed the 2025 Portland Marathon in a time of 4:37:05, maintaining an average pace of 10:34 min/mile. Her performance was consistent, with a noticeable strength in the initial segments. She managed to keep her splits relatively even through the first half, with times such as 9:52, 9:51, and 9:48 min/mile. Jessica maintained a sub-10 minute pace until the 16th mile. Notably, her performance in the early stages positioned her 47th in her division initially, demonstrating a solid start. For the latter half, her pace began to slow slightly, reaching up to 12:27 min/mile by the 24th mile.
