Date: Dec. 13, 2025 Participant: Sergio Reyes #3952 Race: 2025 Phoenix Marathon Distance: 26.2 miles

Consistent Start with Opportunities for Pace Sustainability Sergio Reyes demonstrated a consistent and energetic start at the 2025 Phoenix Marathon. His initial 5 miles showed impressive control, maintaining a steady average pace just under 7:00 min/mile. Notably, he managed to keep a pace below 7:00 min/mile during the third and fourth miles, resulting in improvements in his overall rankings. By the sixth mile, he achieved a place of 125 overall and held a pace of 6:50 min/mile, highlighting his strong early performance. However, as the race progressed, a gradual drop in pace was evident. The splits from miles 9 to 26 reflect increasing times, with the final mile notably extending to a split of 35:30 min/mile. This extended split might indicate an area to focus on maintaining consistency over the long haul, aiming to sustain the initial momentum. Overall, finishing the marathon in 3:53:25 places Sergio commendably within the top 24% of the total 2712 participants. Exploring strategies to maintain pacing could further enhance future performances.
