Notable is Tims consistent pacing during the mid-race miles, maintaining splits in the 9:00-9:09 min/mile range from mile 1 through mile 13. His strongest mile came towards the end at mile 10 with a split time of 8:42 min/mile, showing a commendable effort to pick up the pace after the initial stages. However, there was a significant drop in pace after mile 20, where mile 21 saw the slowest split of 13:08 min/mile.
