Date: Oct. 5, 2025 Participant: Ulyses Hernandez #21604 Race: 2025 Portland 10K MindRX Group Distance: 6.2 miles

Consistent Pace with Potential for Speed Gains Ulyses Hernandez maintained a consistent pace throughout the 2025 Portland Marathon 10K, with an overall completion time of 1:32:18 and an impressive final split time of 14:17. The 23-year-old runner from Portland, OR achieved an elapsed pace of 14:53 min/mile, demonstrating stability across the 6.2-mile distance. Two of Ulyses' splits stood out with identical split times of 14:43 occurring during miles 4 and 5, highlighting consistent effort during the race. While the pace was steady, there is an opportunity for Ulyses to refine his pacing strategy over the race. More evenly paced splits can lead to better results. His early race positions, such as being 261st in his gender during the first mile, suggest a strong start, but the drop in pace from the first to second mile impacted overall placement. Future focus on pacing could support improved positioning. Keep building on endurance and speed.
