Steady Performance with Notable Mid-race Strength Jeremy Chapman showcased determination in the 2025 Pikes Peak Ascent, completing the half marathon with an elapsed time of 5:36:09, at a pace of 25:09 min/mile. The race started at an elevation of 6,303 feet and concluded at 14,061 feet over a 13.36-mile distance. His final placement was 1,284th out of 2,049 participants and 116th in his division (Men 40-44). Jeremy found his rhythm mid-race, notably improving his placement at the Barr Camp split, where he recorded a significant split pace of 15:10 min/mile, marking one of his strongest segments. At the altitude-challenging Bottomless Pit segment, though Jeremy faced a slower split pace of 45:30 min/mile, he continued to push through. The data suggests working on more consistent pacing and endurance at high altitudes, especially in the closing miles, could further optimize performance in similar future events. Maintain focus on these areas, particularly between the final 1.5 miles to the finish, where pacing was notably more variable.
