Steady Progression with Strategic Splits Kyler demonstrated impressive adaptability in the 2025 Boulderthon Marathon, starting strong with a consistent pace in the early miles. Notably, he ranked highly in the 5th mile, with a split of 5:32 min/mile, placing 320th overall and showing an impressive burst of speed. His elevation to 104th in his M20-24 division by the 3rd mile corroborates his pacing strategy. Kyler's later miles showed admirable resolve to maintain an average pace around the 9-minute mark. While the overall elapsed time was 4:08:08 with an average pace of 9:28 min/mile, some slowing occurred in miles 21 to 24, with paces exceeding 10 minutes per mile. From mile 24 onward, Kyler managed a slight recovery, completing the race ranked 573rd overall. Focusing on maintaining a more consistent pace in the later stages could enhance future performance, but Kyler's strategic execution in the middle was commendable.
