Pacers, also known as pace-setters, are runners designated to maintain a specific speed or time during a race to help other competitors achieve their target times. They run at a steady pace, often marked by holding signs indicating their intended finish time, allowing other runners to follow and gauge their own speed accordingly. Pacers typically drop out of the race after fulfilling their pacing duties, though in some events, they might complete the race.
