Steady Mid-Race Improvement with Impressive Final Surge Prathap Kondari displayed a consistent performance throughout the 2025 Phoenix Marathon 10K. Starting with a split pace of 18:27 min/mile, Prathap managed to progressively improve at each subsequent mile, particularly noticeable between the first mile and the fourth mile, where the pace dropped to 16:33 min/mile. This indicates a strong potential for pacing strategies as maintaining or improving pace during the race is often a key factor for success. The final mile is noteworthy, as Prathap executed it in 17:31, with significant improvement in placement, including a jump to 308th place overall, and an impressive 16th in the M40-44 division. This suggests a solid finishing strategy. The return to a slightly slower pace in the fifth mile at 18:43 min/mile could be an area to enhance, possibly by focusing on maintaining momentum during that section of the race. Overall, Prathap's performance reflects a commendable effort with a strong finish.
