Consistent first half (1:58:15), late miles slowed; 4:27:32 finish Marathon result: 4:27:32 (10:12/mi). Through 13 miles: 1:58:15. Notable surges: 8:49 (M8), 8:41 (M10), 8:20 (M12), 8:25 (M19). 20-mile split: 3:02:59. Final miles showed a drop: 10:39 (21), 10:18 (22), 11:27 (23), 14:48 (24), 16:34 (25), 18:59 (26). Coaching notes: lock in an even start (first 510K at 9:159:20) to protect the final 10K. Build fatigue resistance with long runs finishing the last 68 miles at 9:059:10, plus midweek steady tempos near 9:009:05. Practice pacing off effort to avoid mid-race surges, using the strong M12/M19 splits as controlled benchmarks. Add light strength and mobility to support late-race form.
