Impressive Consistency in 10K Performance Bill Zuetell completed the 2025 Boulderthon 10K with a final time of 46:01, maintaining an average pace of 7:25 min/mile over the 6.2-mile course. Notably, Bill placed 2nd in the M50-54 division, demonstrating considerable strength in this category. His consistency in the first two miles with paces of 6:58 min/mile was impressive, which secured him the 1st place in the early stages of his division. The subsequent miles showed a gradual pace decrease, particularly in the fourth mile at 7:42 min/mile, yet he still managed to finish strong overall. With a previous marathon time of 4:02:23 in the 2023 Boulderthon, Bill has shown significant capability in both longer and shorter distances. Comparison of his 26.2-mile performance to todays event indicates versatility across race types and distances. Focusing on maintaining an even pace after the third mile could enhance future performances even further. Great job, Bill!
