Consistent Pacing with Strong Finish Barbara Jackson maintained a steady pace throughout the 2025 Phoenix Marathon, finishing the half marathon in a time of 3:24:35 with an average pace of 15:37 min/mile. Notable improvements were seen in his pacing, particularly during the latter miles where he managed to accelerate and achieve sub-15 minute miles multiple times, culminating in a final mile split of 14:32. His placement saw movement primarily in the 70-74 age division, where he steadily held the 14th position except for miles two and 12, where he elevated to 13th. It's worth noting his impressive mid-race surge around mile six, boosting his overall position significantly from 2244 to 1057. Maintaining a consistent pace and seizing the opportunity to accelerate in later miles worked effectively. Focusing on maintaining an even pace could help in further enhancing both speed and position in future endeavors.
