Steady Mid-Pack Performance with Consistent Pacing Hope maintained a consistent pace throughout the 2025 Las Vegas Marathon, completing the 7.02-mile event with an overall elapsed time of 2:06:05, translating to an average pace of 17:57 min/mile. Notably, she began with a solid first mile at 17:46 min/mile but experienced a slower second mile at 19:46 min/mile. Her pace stabilized in the later miles, with her fastest split at a pace of 16:55 min/mile between miles 3 and 4. Despite finishing 37th in her F50-54 division and 698th out of 1365 overall female participants, Hope demonstrated stamina and resilience. Her pacing improved in several sections, particularly noticeable between miles 3 and 4. It could be beneficial to focus on maintaining the consistent improvements seen in the later portions of the race, as enhancing endurance and pacing from start to finish might further improve her overall performance in future events.
