Steady Ascent on Pikes Peak Natasha Chab, 34, from Flint, TX, completed the 2025 Pikes Peak Ascent in 6:14:53, covering a distance of 13.36 miles with an elapsed pace of 28:03 min/mile. Natasha placed 1532nd overall out of 2049 participants and held the 555th position in the female category. Within her division (F30-34), she secured the 73rd spot. Throughout her journey from 6303 to 14061 feet elevation, her pace understandably slowed due to increasing altitude and challenging terrain. In terms of split times, Natasha showed notable consistency. Her initial pace at Ruxton was 13:52 min/mile but gradually slowed, with the most significant adjustments seen in the high-altitude segments. Notably, the '1 Mile To Go' marker witnessed her slowest pace of 45:48 min/mile. However, her determination remained strong, as she picked up pace at the '0.5 Miles To Go' split, clocking a 40:41 min/mile pace, showing resilience as she pushed toward the finish line at 14061 feet.
