Consistent Start, Slower Finish Nathaniel Redden delivered a strong start at the 2025 Boulderthon Marathon. He maintained a consistent pace for the initial segments, starting with a 6:36 min/mile for the first mile. His split times showed consistent pacing under 7:00 min/mile through mile 12, with a highlight at Mile 5 where he ran a brisk 6:29 min/mile, which boosted his position to 33rd overall. As the marathon progressed, Nathaniel faced a decrease in pace, particularly noticeable from mile 17 onwards, where split times stretched beyond 8:00 min/mile, culminating in a 19:41-minute mile at mile 24. Completing the marathon with an elapsed time of 3:41:03 and an overall pace of 8:26 min/mile, there is potential to focus on endurance for maintaining a strong finish. He finished 47th in his division (M25-29). Consider dedicating some training to longer intervals and stamina-building for even pacing in future races.
