Consistent Elevation Climb Defines Bradley's Race Bradley Allen completed the 2025 Pikes Peak Ascent with an elapsed time of 6:08:51, covering a distance of 13.36 miles. Starting strong, he clocked a swift 10:34 pace in the opening 0.43 miles before adjusting to the challenging elevation. His overall pace settled at 27:36 min/mile as he climbed from approximately 6303 to 14061 feet in elevation. Bradley finished 1503rd out of 2049 participants, ranking 95th in his age division (50-54). He maintained steady progress through the race's challenging sections, including W's and No Name Creek, despite significant shifts in pace due to increased altitude and elevation gain. Notably, between "A-Frame" and "2 Miles To Go," Bradley showed resilience with split distances from 0.57 to 1.52 miles, although pace varied from 30:17 to 41:38 min/mile. Attention to pacing during the final sections could refine his already commendable persistence.
