Consistent Performance Amidst High Altitude Challenge Jayzer Uy completed the 2025 Pikes Peak Ascent with an elapsed time of 6:28:09 over a challenging 13.36-mile course. Starting strong, Jayzer was impressively positioned at 580th overall at the onset but faced increasing challenges, finishing 1586th. The average pace of 29:03 min/mile indicates a significant impact from the rapid elevation gain and high-altitude sections. A notable observation is the split from "1 Mile To Go" to the finish, covering a 0.5243-mile distance in 30:25 at a 57:53 min/mile pace, showcasing the toll of altitude and fatigue. Elevation change was significant, beginning at 6303 feet and reaching 14061 feet. Jayzer showed strong endurance and resilience, particularly at "7.8 Summit" where he maintained a steady pace of 17:00 min/mile, his fastest split, demonstrating strength at higher elevation. Analyzing the race, focusing on maintaining pace in high-altitude sections could enhance future performances.
