Strong Start with Consistent Early Performance Daisy Covarrubias began her race strong with remarkable consistency in her initial splits, all clocking under 6:00 min/mile for the first two miles. Her Elapsed Time at the 3rd mile was 18:08, securing 1st place in her division F20-24. Maintaining a stable pace early on proved effective, as she progressed to a steady position around the 4th mile. Despite a shift in position, Daisy consistently ranked 1st or 2nd in her division until the later segments of the race. The middle section of the race saw Daisy maintaining an average pace that hovered around the 6:35 to 6:40 min/mile range. This consistency was crucial in keeping her within the top 3 of her division.
