Consistent Early Pace with Strong Finish Despite Late Challenges Dana Gutierrez maintained a consistent pace in the early and mid-race phases, clocking mostly sub-9:10 paces for the first half. Her best split time was achieved in mile 3 with a pace of 8:59 min/mile, reflecting steady progress. Notably, her ranking improved significantly during these early splits, moving from 845th to 426th overall and from 188th to 92nd in the female category by mile 5. This demonstrates a solid initial strategy and a strong start in the 2025 Boulderthon. However, the latter part of the race presented challenges, with the pace slowing to around 10+ min/mile in several splits towards the end. A standout moment was a return to a sub-10 pace in mile 25, the second half's best. Ultimately, Dana finished with a time of 4:18:39, averaging a 9:52 min/mile pace. Focus on pacing consistency in later stages could further enhance performance. Keep up the great work with early race strategies!
