Inconsistent Splits with Notable Early Surges Eric Shipley completed the 2025 Portland Marathon with an official time of 4:42:10, averaging a pace of 10:46 min/mile. During the early stages, Eric demonstrated a strong start with a notable early surge, clocking a 9:11 split for the first mile. Consistent with this strong start, he maintained a well-managed pace for the first seven miles, completing several splits under 9:00 min/mile. While there was a promising pace early on, challenges appeared around mile 17, where there was a dramatic pace reduction reflected by a 27:06 split. The consistency regained in the middle miles could have been sustained longer. Some technical aspects of pacing strategy could be reviewed to aim for steadier pacing in future races, especially after mile 16. Maintaining focus on even pacing might help in managing energy distribution effectively.
