Consistent Pace with a Strong Finish in the 10K Logan Orr, competing in the 2025 Mesa Marathon 10K, demonstrated notable consistency and improvement. His overall time was 47:26, translating to an average pace of 7:39 min/mile. Compared to the previous year’s race at the same event, Logan improved his time by over three minutes and elevated his division place to 19th. Notably, Logan's performance saw a strong final mile with a split time of 6:51, showcasing his capability to accelerate towards the finish. Analyzing his split times, Logan maintained a steady pace early on, though with a slight deceleration, transitioning from 7:42 min/mile in the first split to 8:17 min/mile by the third mile. However, his final two splits were faster, regaining momentum with a brilliant 7:24 mile during the fifth split and the fastest mile at the end. This demonstrates good pacing strategy and suggests that focusing on maintaining that mid-race momentum could further lower overall time.
