Date: Feb. 14, 2026 Participant: Corinne York #17728 Race: 2026 Mesa Half Marathon Distance: 13.1 miles

Steady Performance with Improved Pacing Corinne maintained a consistent pace throughout the 2026 Mesa Marathon half marathon. Her pacing remained mostly even, with an overall pace of 9:40 min/mile. Noteworthy improvements were evident during the final third of the race, breaking the 10-minute mile mark, with a highlight as she achieved a strong finish over the last mile with a split time of 9:24. This consistent pacing helped her secure the 53rd place in her division (F50-54) out of a field of 4,125 participants. While Corinne's overall time of 2:06:41 reveals consistency compared to her previous performances, a closer look at her incremental placements shows fluctuation, likely due to a slower fourth mile at 11:10 min/mile. Enhancing middle mile consistency might better maintain her rankings throughout the race. Her strongest splits were during miles five and thirteen, indicating potential for a more evenly paced strategy in future races.
