Date: Nov. 30, 2025 Participant: Michael Linscott #10688 Race: 2025 UW Medicine Seattle Marathon Distance: 26.2 miles

Consistent Start, Challenges in Pace Consistency Michael demonstrated resilience during the 2025 UW Medicine Seattle Marathon, maintaining a steady performance across the 26.2 miles. He started out strong, hitting his fastest split at mile 6 with a pace of 9:41 min/mile. Unfortunately, this momentum was not sustained, as later splits showed a progressive increase in elapsed time. Notably, his overall race pace was 11:15 min/mile, a performance milestone that called for strategic adjustments. His consistent pacing at the start indicates a strong potential. However, fluctuations in the pace, particularly from mile 16 onwards where times increased to over 11 min/mile, suggest a need for focused endurance training. Engaging in tempo runs or long, steady runs could enhance his stamina, especially in the later race stages. For Michael, refining these areas could help maintain the quicker early pace over longer distances, leading to improved overall performance.
