Pacing and Consistency Shine in Race Performance Alilio Jimenez demonstrated a marked improvement from his previous race with a finishing time of 55:55 and an overall pace of 9:01 min/mile. Compared to last year's 57:42 finish, this represents a nearly two-minute enhancement in his time, emphasizing consistent training efforts. His splits reveal a progressive improvement in pace, starting at 10:05 min/mile for the first mile and concluding at an impressive 7:56 min/mile for the final mile. Throughout the race, Alilio maintained a strategic effort, managing to improve his overall standing with consistent pacing and effort from the 4th mile onward. The middle segments around miles 4 and 5 saw some of the fastest pacing at 8:49 min/mile, which shows he conserved his energy effectively. Continued focus on maintaining an even faster start could optimize his overall time further. Participation as part of the LatinasRAPortland team likely provided additional motivation.
