Consistent Speed with Notable Pacing at Mesa Marathon Brent Perkins delivered a steady performance at the 2025 Mesa Marathon, completing the 26.2 miles with an elapsed time of 5:00:42 and an average pace of 11:28 min/mile. He consistently held his pace across most of the distance, only deviating slightly in later stages. Notably, Brent's first few miles showcased a strong start, with the initial 9:49 min/mile split indicating potential for even faster future races. A key highlight in Brent's race was his ability to maintain performance strength relative to a previous half marathon event. His splits demonstrate resilience, with mile splits ranging from 9:40 min/mile up to 16:39 min/mile, and he managed to recover to maintain stability. Considering his progress from last year's half marathon in Mesa, where he paced at 10:58 min/mile, there is promising potential for Brent to further enhance his time in future races with a focus on maintaining momentum in the latter phases.
