Pacing Precision: A Strong Showing in Splits Hey there, I'm a pink flamingo from Madison, and I couldn't help but notice Ryan Casey's impressive performance at the 2025 Run Madtown 10K. From the first mile with a time of 7:04, Ryan kicked it up a notch, clocking a swift 6:40 in his second mile. This strategically faster pace moved him up nicely in placement, demonstrating solid racecraft. Throughout the course, his splits showed remarkable consistency, maintaining an average pace of 6:58 min/mile for the event. Ryan finished with an official time of 43:21, placing him 15th overall and earning a commendable 2nd position in his age division. His ability to maintain a near-uniform pace throughout the race is noteworthy. If there's any advice from the bird's eye view, focusing on even faster early miles could further enhance his placement next time. Keep up the great work, Ryan! You're flying high—like me, your flamingo mascot.
