Steady Performance with Potential for Strategic Pacing Mandy Bullock, competing in the 2025 Mesa Marathon 10K as part of the Queen Bee's team, exhibited a solid performance across her splits. Her pace throughout most of the race stayed consistent, starting with a 10:16 min/mile for the first mile and improving slightly in the subsequent miles, reaching 9:50 min/mile during the fourth mile. Notably, Mandy placed 9th in her division in three of her five splits, indicating a promising standing among her peers in the F50-54 category. Towards the end, a slight decrease in pace was observed, with the fifth and sixth mile splits recorded at 12:13 and 11:46 min/mile, respectively. This indicates an area where energy conservation could be improved for maintaining a steadier pace throughout. Overall, she finished with an elapsed time of 1:06:20, with an average pace of 10:42 min/mile, positioned at 17th in her division. A focus on even pacing may enhance future race outcomes.
