Consistent Performance in Steady Conditions Amanda Winters, 37, from Henderson, NV, completed the 50-mile event at the 2025 Vacation Races | Bryce Canyon Ultras in 12:26:23. With an overall average pace of 15:15 min/mile, Amanda secured the 6th place in the female category out of 149 total participants. Her progress displayed strategic pacing, starting strong with an 11:34 pace in the first mile and maintaining consistent splits through challenging terrain changes. Notably, Amanda achieved her fastest split pace of 11:00 min/mile between miles 12 and 16. While Amanda maintained consistent positioning throughout the race, it would be beneficial to examine pacing strategies after the 32-mile mark, where she encountered slower segments with split paces reaching up to 19:32 min/mile. Focusing on energy conservation and pacing adjustments during late stages could further enhance her performance in future events. Her strong finish, closing with a tighter 10:49 min/mile pace in the final miles, indicates potential for refined late-race pacing strategies.
