Consistent Effort with a Strong Finish Terri maintained consistency throughout the 2025 Mesa Marathon 10K, achieving an overall 18:00 min/mile pace. Notably, her performance improved around the halfway mark, showing a steady 17:05 min/mile pace in her final split. This effort led to an elapsed time of 1:51:38 over 6.2 miles. Such consistency is commendable and can serve as a strong foundation for future races. Her performance in the F55-59 division placed her 59th, and she ranked 1012th among female participants.

Keeping her splits even next time will pay off in reducing the minutes per mile across the entire course. Working on pacing and pacing strategies could be beneficial areas of focus for her next event.
