Date: Oct. 5, 2025 Participant: Ittzel Gonzalez #21495 Race: 2025 Portland 10K MindRX Group Distance: 6.2 miles

Consistent Start with Opportunities for Pacing Adjustment Throughout the 2025 Portland Marathon 10K MindRX Group event, Ittzel Gonzalez maintained a consistent pace, opening with a strong 13:00 min/mile for the first two miles. Her splits at 1 and 2 miles were both completed in 13:00, placing her in the top half of the field with a notable position of 135th in her F25-29 division. A significant highlight was observed between the 3rd and 4th miles: despite a slower 3rd mile split of 15:39, she rallied and improved to 13:26 for the next two miles. This improvement in her divisional ranking from 147th to 85th in F25-29 reflects resilience. Closing with a total time of 1:25:27 and an average pace of 13:47 min/mile, focusing on maintaining or improving the steadiness seen in her first two miles may help enhance future race outcomes. Great job representing the Slow Runners of Salem!
