Steady Progression in Marathon Performance Nikola Nemcanin completed the 2025 Boulderthon Marathon in a time of 3:57:54 with an average pace of 9:04 min/mile, marking a significant improvement from the previous year's race, where his pace was 9:33 min/mile. His division placement improved from 13th to 8th in the M50-54 category, indicating a great leap forward in performance. The splits show consistent pacing, with a few faster miles such as mile 10 at 8:27 min/mile and mile 12 at 8:19 min/mile. Despite slight variations, Nikola maintained a steady effort with very little pace drop in later stages of the race. By leveraging this consistent pacing, he improved in overall placement from 357th to 449th in a significantly larger field of 2678 participants. Consider focusing on sustaining those faster split paces and addressing the slight slowdown in the later miles to further enhance performance in future events.
