Her splits showed an initial mile pace of 11:01 min/mile, which improved in the second mile to 10:25 min/mile. The third mile slowed slightly to 11:27 min/mile, resulting in an overall average pace of 10:59 min/mile for the 5K distance. Kathryn placed 10th in her F60-64 division, an excellent achievement considering the competition of 1972 participants overall.
