B.A.A. 10K Women's 30–34: Mosca Dominates from Wire to Wire
- Ab Mosca won the W30–34 group in 43:45 (7:02/mi), never relinquishing the lead among women and posting the fastest women's split on the 5K–8K stretch.
- Alyssa Moskites claimed 2nd in 49:44, rallying from 3rd among women at the 5K mark to finish with the 2nd-fastest women's split on the final 8K–to-finish push.
- Nicole Miranda rounded out the podium in 58:20, holding steady at 6th among women through the middle miles.
- The gap from 1st to 4th in the W30–34 group spanned nearly 20 minutes — with Oliver Stover closing in 1:03:20 (10:12/mi) and posting the 8th-fastest women's split on the closing segment.
On a sweltering Boston morning — 85°F, thick humidity, barely a breath of wind — Ab Mosca made the W30–34 race look controlled from the start. The Jamaica Plain runner held 1st among women at every checkpoint and saved her sharpest running for the 5K–8K segment, where she posted the fastest women's split in the field. Her 43:45 finish at 7:02/mi was a commanding performance in conditions that had everyone working harder than the clock suggests.
Behind her, Alyssa Moskites ran a tactically interesting race. She sat 3rd among women through the first 5K, then shifted gears to post the 2nd-fastest women's split from 8K to the finish — moving back up to 2nd in the women's field and securing the runner-up spot in the age group in 49:49. That closing kick in the heat was the defining move of the battle for second.
Nicole Miranda held her position through the back half, finishing 3rd in the W30–34 group in 58:20 at 9:23/mi, while Oliver Stover completed the four-person field in 1:03:20 — contributing the 8th-fastest women's closing split despite the long gap to the front. Four finishers, one dominant performance, and a hard-earned set of results on one of the tougher weather days the B.A.A. 10K has seen.
