Consistent Start, Slower Finish Nobuhisa Yoda maintained consistent pacing in the first two miles, clocking consistent 9:44 min/mile paces and holding steady at 14th place in the M60-64 division. This steady start positioned him well early in the race. Notably, his early splits showed impressive stability, reflecting a well-planned pacing strategy through the 3-mile mark. However, as the race progressed, the splits gradually increased, with miles four through six pacing around 10:48 to 11:01 min/mile. Although this resulted in a slight drop to 16th in the division, it's important to note that he kept a strong standing in his age group category throughout the race. The final result of 1:04:02 over 6.2 miles indicates that focusing on maintaining split times closer to the initial consistent pace, especially in the later miles, could lead to even better future performances.
