Consistent Pace Reflects Steady Progress Virginia Umana-Sanchez completed the 2025 UTHealth Houston Half Marathon with an overall time of 3:40:44, maintaining an average pace of 16:51 min/mile over the 13.1-mile course. She finished 4036th overall, 1739th in the female category, and 327th in her F30-34 division, competing against a total of 4907 participants. Notably, she achieved her fastest split from miles 5 to 6 at a pace of 16:04 min/mile. Looking at her progression from previous races, Virginia shows promise. Compared to her 10K performance in 2024, where her pace was 16:57 min/mile, she demonstrated slight but consistent improvement in maintaining her pace over the longer half marathon distance. To maximize efficiency, consider further pace training particularly focusing on sustaining the stronger paces seen between miles 5 and 6 over longer distances. Keep up the focused training, and the results will follow.
