Consistent Start with Strategic Mid-Race Adjustments Adam Monette displayed a steady start at the 2025 Boulderthon Marathon. His strongest performance was in the first mile with an impressive pace of 6:41 min/mile, positioning him 5th in his division. By mile 5, he improved to 4th in his division, indicating strong early momentum. However, his pace began to slow after the midway point, transitioning from a 7:01 min/mile pace at mile 6 to a pace of 7:23 min/mile by mile 19. In the last segments of the race, Adam opted for a strategic slowdown, with pacing dropping to 10:29 min/mile by mile 22. This shift caused him to finish 19th in the M35-39 division with an overall time of 3:32:33. His early pace and adjustments are commendable. Small adjustments in the latter half of the race could be beneficial, specifically maintaining a steadier pace beyond the midpoint. Continued focus on pacing endurance will further enhance his performance.
