Date: February 8, 2025 Participant: Tyla Bearss #10431 Race: 2025 Mesa Marathon Distance: 26.2 miles Weather: Perfect running conditions at 63°F, partly cloudy skies, and a slight breeze from the east in Mesa, AZ.

Consistent Improvement and Strong Finish Tyla Bearss delivered a notable performance at the 2025 Mesa Marathon with an official time of 3:55:18, maintaining an average pace of 8:58 min/mile over the 26.2-mile course. She secured 433rd position in her gender out of 3624 total participants, showing significant progress since her previous marathon time of 4:17:29 in 2023 with an improved pace of nearly 51 seconds per mile. This consistency in pacing across the splits was impressive, particularly her strong final 1.2 miles at an 8:39 min/mile pace, demonstrating increased endurance and strength. Key areas for continued improvement could include maintaining the faster early pace observed in splits three and four (8:55 min/mile), as some splits later in the race exceeded the 9:00 min/mile mark. With further refinement, especially sustaining consistent pacing, future performances can build upon this solid foundation. Keep up the excellent work with KD ENDURANCE and continue pushing those boundaries!
