Consistent Effort with a Solid Performance Elisa Alanis maintained a consistent pace throughout the race, which was commendable. Initially, she clocked a 9:42 minute/mile pace. Over the next few miles, her pace varied slightly, reaching her fastest split of 9:23 minutes at mile 3. Between mile 5 and 8, Elisa showed great consistency with splits between 9:24 and 9:58 minutes, before gradually slowing down towards the end of the race. Finishing the half marathon with an elapsed time of 2:11:07, Elisa completed the 13.1-mile distance with an average pace of 10:00 minutes/mile.
