Date: Oct. 26, 2025 Participant: Rick Hernandez #4012 Race: 2025 Las Vegas Half Marathon Distance: 13.1 miles

Consistent Performance in Las Vegas Half Marathon Again Rick Hernandez completed the 2025 Las Vegas Marathon Half Marathon with a time of 3:38:39, maintaining a steady pace of 16:41 min/mile over the 13.1-mile course. His performance was consistent throughout most mile splits, starting with an initial pace of 11:20 min/mile but slowing slightly as the race progressed. Notably, Rick improved his division placement to finish 23rd among men aged 60-64, compared to 37th last year, showing a commendable leap in divisional performance. Ricks splits showed a gradual slow down as the race continued, with the longest split being 20:28 in mile 12. There could be a focus on maintaining pace consistency for future races, particularly after the halfway point, where splits began to increase notably. Nonetheless, Rick finished ahead of 156 other participants, showing resilience and commitment as a member of the "We Run This Family (Barely)" team. His consistent participation and improved divisional placement are promising. Consider focusing on pacing strategies to sustain momentum in later miles moving forward.
