Strong Finish with Impressive Splits Natalie Agren, a 16-year-old runner from Layton, UT, delivered a notable performance at the 2025 Deseret News Marathon 10K. Her results indicate a strong finish with an overall time of 45:14 and an average pace of 7:17 min/mile. Notably, Natalie improved her position steadily, finishing 252nd overall in a field of 1159 participants, which includes finishing 25th in her age division (F15-18). Her splits show a notable increase in speed from the first mile, clocked at 8:04, to the fifth mile, timed at 6:56. Consistent pacing in the latter part of the race, especially between mile 5 and 6, allowed her to maintain a strong average pace and contribute significantly to the team, Northridge Girls. Natalie might focus on her start, where an initial smoother pace could help distribute energy more evenly throughout the race. Her positive trend suggests future potential for even faster times.
